HCI Direct (formerly Hosiery Corporation of America) shapes and colors millions of pairs of legs every year. The company sells women's hosiery under the Silkies brand name in 10 sheer styles, 10 colors, and six sizes, as well as two opaque styles in six colors; it also sells knee-highs, socks, and tights for girls. The company manufactures about 80% of its products and contracts for the rest. HCI Direct sells its hosiery primarily by direct mail (typically offering a free pair as an enticement); it also sells through its Web site. The company, founded in 1974, has operations in Canada, France, Germany, Japan, the UK, and the US. A fund managed by Kelso & Company owns about 70% of the HCI Direct.
