STOCKHOLM, Feb. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ –Stinaa.J, the pioneering Swedish orthopedic footwear brand, announced its U.S. debut late last year with the launch of its Fall collection on Bloomingdales.com and Nordstrom.com. Redefining the intersection of science, design, and whole-body health, Stinaa.J offers a groundbreaking solution to the age-old compromise between comfort and style.
Stinaa.J Founder Stina Andersson
Stinaa.J was founded by Stina Andersson, who recognized the need for a change in the footwear industry after struggling to walk home in heels from a dinner out with her husband. Determined to challenge and redefine an entire industry, Stina contacted Peter Hedström, a renowned orthopedic technician with over four decades of experience treating top athletes with injuries to the feet, knees, hips, and back. Together, they have shaped the fundamental principles of Stinaa.J, creating a brand that stands out for its innovative approach to footwear.
Patented Science: Technology Backed by Millions of Data Points
Stinaa.J’s orthopedically engineered footwear stands out for its proprietary 3D-scanned insole technology, developed using data from over 3 million scanned feet. Each shoe incorporates materials designed for maximum cushioning, stability, and relief, supporting the body from the ground up. The insoles are designed to do the following:
- Restore Natural Foot Function: Supporting the arch to reduce strain and encourage alignment.
- Minimize Rotational Forces: Reducing uneven pressure on the feet, knees, hips, and lower back.
- Ensure Long-Lasting Comfort: Leveraging materials with the world’s highest cushioning performance for all-day wear.
Stinaa.J’s proprietary materials were originally developed by the space industry, ensuring the highest standards of performance and durability.
“Stinaa.J is more than a shoe, it’s a wellness solution,” said Andersson. “We’ve taken orthopedic principles and elevated them with Scandinavian design, crafting footwear that feels as good as it looks.”
Luxury Meets Wellness
Breaking the stigma around orthopedic footwear, Stinaa.J seamlessly blends its patented technology with sophisticated Scandinavian aesthetics, offering a sleek, minimalist design crafted from premium, sustainable materials. Each pair is designed for modern, health-conscious individuals who refuse to compromise on style or wellness.
A Transformational Approach to Foot Health
Stinaa.J is reshaping the conversation around foot health. By addressing how improper footwear contributes to pain throughout the body, the brand inspires consumers to prioritize their well-being without sacrificing fashion. “Our goal is to empower people to feel confident and pain-free,” said Hedström, CEO and Chief Orthopedic Technician.
With its entry into the U.S. market, Stinaa.J is introducing its revolutionary orthopedic footwear to an even wider audience.
