On the definitions - I see your point, although I'd consider partially clothed very different depending on whether or not the naughty bits are seen! I'm much more a fan of some clothing, even if minimal (ideally very minimal) rather than absolutely nude.
However, I was more trying to differentiate between flashing/partially clothed, and the 'Non-nude' category of sites we see on TBP/PU - which I'd find a little frustrating :|

Pros:
- Good photography
- Fairly unique content
- Pretty models
- Nice outfits and (obviously) great nylons
- Some good mild-fetish wear
- Many location/outdoor shoots
- Some entertaining videos
- Downloading pictures was a mildly diverting intellectual challenge
Cons:
- Arguably not much actual nudity (depends on your definition)
- Max resolution of 1200x800px; videos at 320x640
- Frequent timeouts of login
- Only one connection allowed - eg can't open a gallery while viewing a video
- No zip sets
- No video download
- No model index
- No update schedule, or dating of sets
Bottom Line:
I recently saw some pictures from Pantyhose-X - a German nylon fetish magazine (unsure whether print or only online). The few sets that I saw, I loved, and decided to seek out and join the source. I'm not sure of the details, but reading between the lines, I suspect that some change of ownership has been involved recently; pantyhose-x.com becoming nylon-x-files.com with content from the former. I also rather suspect that the changes are not for the best.
First the good.
This is obviously very nylon-oriented material - and more to the point, it's very fetishistic. By which I mean that it focuses very much on the sheerness of it; in fact in the majority of the sets, the tights don't come off at all. Some of them are gusseted and you don't see that much, other than them pulled up tight into the model's pussy; others are seamless and sheer and there are plenty of closeups of the girls masturbating through and under the nylon. The rest of the clothing is great too - from casual and businesswear, to things like corsets, high lace-up boots, PVC miniskirts etc.
The models too are pretty - not too glam or polished (maybe some peroxide), some girl-next-door types - but great figures and legs (of course!). And the photography is great - with a lot of shoots outdoors and in public places - some quite risqu� stuff which is kind of exciting.
My only gripe with the content is my usual - most models are shaved, and given the nature of this style, that you get to glimpse them through the sheer nylon, I can't help feeling that even a trimmed strip or patch of hair would be something more to glimpse.
However...
Although I love the material, the presentation of it is the worst I've come across. Having emailed the webmaster to check, I knew about the resolution (it seems to have suffered in the transition, from the 1800px sets that seem to have been offered by pantyhose-x) and the lack of zips - but figured I'd give it a try.
The members area is very basic, just a list of sets with no dating, model names, or sorting/searching features for the 150 odd sets available.
**Edit** When I first wrote the review, there was no download of anything - not even individual pictures - you could only view on screen in a lightbox-type viewer, which made me mark it down heavily. But the site does now offer download links to pictures; there are still no zips, but this small change makes it easy to download a set with a manager, eg downThemAll.
The site still has issues as in the cons above, but this small change makes it seem far less mean-spirited, and is enough to bump my score from 65 to 75 - it's now recommended if you like this material (and can use a download manager!)
I like pantyhose and stockings, there's something very appealing about the sheerness! But I think I've gravitated more towards nylon and leg material, because it seems to focus more on teasing and the whole package than most genres. Plus this site seems to have a lot of outdoor shoots, which spices things up :)
Thanks for the review Capn - this is on my list of sites to try, as I'm generally interested in an angle of some sort, and the office setting is interesting.
The lack of full nude doesn't bother me as much as it does you - if we see the, er, important bits, I find it more exciting to still see some clothes on.
Agree that another set or two would be good... 60s office sounds perfect!
Thanks for another great review, tangub. This site has been vaguely on my radar, but I think I'd find the lack of delivery on the tease a bit frustrating. Having said that, I don't mind a lack of actual nudity - but in that case I'd prefer something a bit more erotic or evocative; the sets/lighting here seem a bit staged.
But nevertheless, this looks to be a great source of teasing, undressing, lingerie and nylons - all things I'm hugely fond of, so it will stay on my list!
On the regional pricing side - the UK increase seems to be very close to 20%, suggesting that, as a UK site, they seem to be charging VAT to UK customers. If this is the case, I wouldn't mind if they explained as such on the site!
Slutty, thanks for the helpful and informative review - this site is high on my list, so it good to read a bit more about it.
Despite the smaller size, I still think I'm leaning toward it more than to X-Art - mainly because Orgasms seems to have a broader age range of models, as opposed to X-Art's apparent heavy bias of 18-21.
As I mentioned to rearadmiral - if you like these sites, you may also want to try Joymii - another simiar site which I really enjoyed and reviewed recently.
Elephant, this site is on my radar too, and I just checked the other billing processors available from their join page. Epoch is also �24.95, but Segpay seems to let you join at $24.95.
For now I've signed up at Joymii so won't join here just yet - but agree that the material looks good and the $ price is realistic.
Hi reallyuseful - thanks for the reply, it's good to see another webmaster here, and useful to know why the two sites exist.
However, do you have any thoughts on elephant's earlier query about the regional pricing on orgasms.xxx? I don't stress much over a small discrepancy, but the site is $25, but �25 when joining in the UK. That's an increase of 50-60%, which is a bit much to swallow!
Good review, and thanks for pointing out one to avoid. I've been looking for a panty-oriented site for a while but haven't found one that seems worth joining yet - do you have a favourite?
As a panty fan, I just noticed this site listed - it's from, and includes, Vintage Flash, Pantyhosed4U and a couple of others. Makes this network seem even more appealing and pushes it up my list a bit!

Updated:
01-07-1111:09am (Update History) Reason: Minor score change; think I set the bar a bit high to start with...
Pros:
- Mainly pretty, amateur-looking, natural girls
- Some videos have them chatting, which I like
- Great legwear, Wolford tights etc
- Not just tights as the name suggests, stockings also
Cons:
- Last updates seem to be from 6 weeks ago; update schedule AWOL since 2009; actual update material dated 2008
- Quality is not great; older videos at 480x360, newer 640x480 or 700x400
- Same for photo shoots; some at 1500x1000, others seem to be captures at 640x480 or 960x540
- Some videos have ludicrous music over them
- Some - luckily not many - have the cameraman talking and lending a hand - not really what the material here is about
- Listings are basic - just straight list, with thumbnails, of albums and movies; no sort, filter etc
- Not many unshaved girls, and only a couple of girl-girl videos
Bottom Line:
I've got a much bigger list of cons than pros, and given that, my score might seem a little high. Especially as the site is pretty dated looking - content seems to be from 2000-2008, and has the bare minimum of navigation to get round the 200-odd movies, and similar number of photo sets.
However, I do like the material. The girls are cute, unpretentious, pretty without being too glammed-up. Also a few familiar names there, perhaps from before they were so well-known (eg Sunny Leone, Bree Olsen, Mai Ly).
Videos are almost all solo, some good teasing to start with, and as per the niche, some clothing tends to remain on - with panties pulled aside, or tights pulled down but remaining on while the models masturbate; some with toys, others just with fingers.
Oh, and there is some GREAT legwear. I like tights and stockings, but there are some videos here with some impressively patterned Wolfords etc, which is a big turn-on for me. There are a few nylon sites around, but featuring really sexy tights like these seems fairly rare.
I joined on a 3-day trial - well worth it, but you can likely get all you need within that 3 days.
It also comes with access to Amateur Upskirts - some of the same models, but it's more lollipop/pigtails/barely-legal themed, which isn't really my thing.
This looks interesting - I like nylons, and other (mild) fetish content, and I'm also very fond of Japanese girls.
Having said that, I have two big issues with Japanese content; firstly, the censoring is daft - although I realise it has to be done. And Japanese hardcore doesn't work for me - seems to centre around bukkake, multiple guys, girls really looking like they don't enjoy it, etc.
Although there does seem to be hardcore here, am wondering if it contains the elusive softcore-but-explicit Japanese porn that I wish existed?
I enjoyed Maggie's review of this site... and found the premise quite amusing. I like nylons myself, but perhaps not quite *that* much - I think I'd rather stick to seeing them on girls! Especially with those guys' hairy legs under them...
Christiaan, many thanks for your reply, much appreciated. PF sounds perhaps a little too foot-fetishy for me... but I do really like the feel of the clips and pics I see there, so will definitely keep you in mind and sign up when I fancy something a bit different!
Quick question for the webmaster or any users... I really like the look of this site, but can't tell from the tour how far it goes? I'm all for nylon-clad legs and feet, but I'd be missing out if the camera doesn't reach a bit higher.
My ideal material in this genre is, after a little teasing girls slipping their hands under the pantyhose and touching themselves, perhaps peeling their nylons off.
Excellent review - and as a sometime-fan of heartcore, very helpful - this site has sort of been on my radar but your helpful review has pushed it down a few rungs. Your take on them trying but not quite making the transition sounds spot on, having seen similar material elsewhere.
Have you tried Joymii or X Art? They seem to set the standard - I'd be interested what you think of them.
Thanks for the review here, and the info. I'm quite fond of this heartcore/whatever genre and this site cropped up on my radar - as you say, they are clearly aiming for the X-Art/Joymii market, both of which I enjoyed.
It's good to know it doesn't quite make it - helps prioritise other sites!
Great, in-depth review, with a lot of good points. You are selling it a bit short on the numbers though; a quick look at the list of sets shows > 700 sets; and don't forget the approx 500 videos.
If you go back a year ago, you'll also find they did experiment with some slightly more explicit stuff - see Emma/Emmanuella's sets (they also have quite a few late 20s models, of which she is one), where there is some masturbation, which worked well.
This was one of my favourite sites - I had a continuous membership for 2 years, but have recently stopped; partly because I have less time to spend on porn of late; but also, if I were to review it again now, I'd score it a bit lower than the very high score in my review, since:
* Updates are no longer daily - that's fine for the price of the site, but I'd need daily updates to subscribe for a year;
* The forum is gone - had some good chats on there with fellow members
* Most importantly - recent updates seem to be more studio-based; whereas what I love about the site is the voyeuristic nature of the locations - outdoor/bedroom/hotel/apartment etc
Oh and you are right it's a bit glitchy! It went through a couple of redesigns while I was a member, but never quite right.
But with all that, I'd still score it in the high 80s, especially for all the great archive material - and lots featuring models dressing and undressing from great lingerie and nylons.
A few changes at PP over the past six months or more. They went through a bit of a phase of models who, for some reason, didn't do much for me - perhaps too glam, losing the intimacy or voyeurism that made the material so appealing.
Things seem to have picked up a bit now, with very attractive, recent models, and again more intimate themes and sets - getting dressed, make-up and the like, which work for me.
Note, though, that updates are less frequent - from daily down to every 3 days at the moment. That's still pretty good for a $15 site and is still good value but if I re-review it, my score may drop a couple of points for that reason.
Although updates haven't quite been daily lately, this remains one of my favourite sites, and the only one I have a recurring subscription to. It's just had a bit of a facelift - looks good, and although there are still a couple of glitches to iron out, I particularly like the new model listing
Not seen anything quite like it. Also, the filtering facilities here remain exemplary - allowing you to search models and sets by many criteria - build, breast size, ethnicity, age, explicitness. Other sites would do well to take note!
Still my favourite site too. It's changed a bit this year; we've lost some of the variety in locations, no outdoor shoots etc; but we've made up for it with some great new models, great lingerie and a helpful webmaster providing almost made-to-order sets.
I'm sure I'll be resubscribing (and not at all defiantly... :| ) - $15 is a steal for a daily updated site, but the one year seems to have stayed the same - now equivalent to 10 months, so arguable as to whether it's a good buy?
Just a quick note in appreciation of Jamy, the webmaster here - who is always happy to receive ideas and suggestions (within the overall concept of the site, of course) on the forum.
The end of this month sees the return of one of my favourite models from this year - and from the previews, in sets and videos exactly as I'd suggested! Namely getting her in and out of suspenders, a lycra catsuit - and a bit more panty-teasing and masturbation than is the norm here.
Also another of the make-up videos which, although less explicit, he lends a very intimate and/or voyeuristic feel to.
As others have said, a good review, thanks. I think your score is fair; mine is much higher because the material particularly appeals to me which is obviously very subjective.
Agree about the webmaster/photographer - I'm pretty sure he's not in it for the money as such, more for fun, which gives the site quite a personal appeal.
Hope you're still around there for the end of the month, when Emma - both the oldest model there and one of the sexiest - returns!
