Stocking fetishism is a sexual fetish relating to women's nylon stockings or 'nylons' as they were originally called. Stocking fetishists may particularly find sexual partners clothed in sheer nylon or silk stockings to be sexually stimulating whilst also witnessing such a partner (or any attractive female) slipping into or removing a pair of her stockings often results in a similar effect. This can also be related to transvestic fetishism and pantyhose fetishism. Some men find it enticing to collect and wear stockings.

Additionally, such fetishists may also be divided into many sub-categories relative to their attraction to certain types of stockings.

Fishnet stockings
Fully-fashioned (seamed) stockings
Seamless stockings
Designer stockings
Luxury stockings etc.
