If you’re venturing into the tantalizing fetishistic realm of Nylon and you have mega-luminary Wicked Girl Asa Akira at your disposal, conventional wisdom would suggest that you’d put her on the box cover.

But this is AXEL BRAUN’s Nylon. And Axel Braun does what Axel Braun wants. Which in this case was to make major up-and-comer (and 2016 AVN Best New Starlet nominee) Katrina Jade his cover girl. Truth be told, we can’t argue with that choice.

Not that Akira doesn’t deliver her usual dynamite performance here. On the contrary, it’s one of the best we’ve seen from her this year. Descending a curving staircase in sheer black thigh-highs and black platform stilettos, she converges with a shirtless Eric John at a black leather chair where she perches on one arm and presents her stems to him for some kneeled adoration. Before long, she pulls his cock out of his jeans and gives him a helping of slow, sensual oral, which favor he then returns until he’s treated to a brief footjob courtesy of her still-heeled left tootsie, and finally they commence to banging in standing mish on the chair’s other arm. More pussy-eating follows, and then a whole lot more banging on and around the chair, in all manner of positions and with increasing frenzy, until John pops on her now shoeless but still hose-encased feet, the left of which she licks clean.

To top that scene is no small feat; like we said, it’s one of the best we’ve seen out of Akira all year, and, well … there’s a reason she has so many AVN Awards. But to get back to Katrina Jade, there’s no denying that her segment of this movie is in a league of its own. Opening with her seductively pulling on the titular legwear and stepping into her own pair of black heels, she sets the pulse racing immediately by sinuously showing off her lower appendages first while seated on the edge of an ottoman, and then standing in front of the body-length mirror pictured behind her on the box cover. Tommy Gunn then steps into frame and soon he’s plowing her in doggie as she grasps the sides of that mirror to brace herself. After that, they move to the ottoman for mish and reverse cowgirl before he sprays his load across her extended kickers and she scoops up a dollop to taste. It’s easily one of the sexiest and most memorable scenes of 2016.

Three more immensely erotic scenes—with, respectively, Bianca Breeze and Lucas Frost; Britney Amber and Alec Knight; and married-in-real-life couple Jasmine Jae and Ryan Ryder—fill out this exceptional entry in the hosiery subgenre. As offerings for that specialized taste go, it doesn’t get much slicker or more star-powered than this.
