Buttless Tights 

The sheer black hose, that have butt checks cut out in them. These tights are sold at American Apparel

My thoughts on these are open, just because the tights are new, and because I've never seen anything like this before. I'm thinking in a couple of years the regular tights might be called  the granny panties of tights.
