Is there another alternative to "sarung kaki" and "stokin"? The client didn't like those saying they make people think of socks. I agree, but can't think of anything better.

stokin nilon; celana nilon

ramona,

i'd go with fara's suggestion. but the above alternatives might come in useful if you need choices.

another word for pantyhose is nylons and kamus dewan translates that as 'stokin nilon'.

i also looked up tights, another possible synonym for pantyhose but don't think 'seluar sama sendat' would cut it here. :D

'celana nilon' is in one of my indon dictionaries. i thought i'd give it as another alternative.

agree Fara Al-Qabli : stokin nilon pun OK, tapi celana tu toksah lah..macam seluar pulak :-)
