Christina Stephens: Shaping the Future of Adaptive Denim
Today, Christina Stephens is proud to be part of the new wave of adaptive fashion that redefines what "functional" really means.

We partner with customer focus groups, collaborate with global textile innovators, and use sales data to continually refine our offerings—ensuring our designs work across a wide range of disabilities and fluctuating needs.
It’s a process that takes time, investment, and heart—but it's what makes our collections different.
