Inclusivity for all women, regardless of their shoe size
No feet are too flat, too big or too wide for Staavias
Blessed with large feet, she started Staavias - a footwear brand to specialise in beautifully handcrafted footwear for women, like herself, who have struggled their entire lives to find shoes to fit their large, wide feet. Not just any shoes, comfortable, stylish and did I mention comfortable?!
Staavias is an online store, giving our customers the freedom to shop from the comfort of their home, any day, any time. Staavias opened in Jan 2016.
