The package that the nylons came in were clearly marked 'Calza' and "Arwa". They were sent to me by a friend who lives in Italy and visits many small shops in Italy and France and sends me hosiery that is still available there: classic vintage hose that has not been available in the USA in stores in many years. These are as authentic as it can get, and who better to model perfect Reinforced Heel and Toe Stockings besides Jamie Lynn. Indoors and Outside in the sun, these nylons are stunningly gorgeous!
