Which was the first successful nylon product?

           Can you name some products made of nylon? Apart from toothbrushes, a range of other products like fishing nets, fabrics, stockings, machine screws, gears, ropes, parachutes, tents, wind cheaters, hammocks, seat belts and sleeping bags use nylon.

           Stockings were the first successful product made of nylon. There was a craze for nylon stockings in the World War II era.

           Nylon is strong, light, elastic and lustrous. It is easy to wash and while washing, nylon does not stretch or shrink. It retains shape and dries quickly. Because of these reasons, nylon is usually preferred to make garments.
