PAMELA F HUNT

DESIGNER & FOUNDER

Orithyia is for women who define strength, beauty and vitality on their own terms in every stage of life. Our collections honor the body in motion and the powerful rituals of care that sustain us.

I believe design shapes how we inhabit our bodies and our lives. Orithyia is designed for performance and to express the unique presence, confidence and well-being in every woman.

Orithyia is an invitation to move with intention and presence. To be the individual within the tribe.

ORIGINS

Greek mythology tells of Orithyia, a fierce warrior and queen of the Amazons, a tribe of women warriors who struck fear in the bravest of armies through their remarkable skills in warfare and alliance with the gods.

RUNNING

Running takes many forms. Over the years, I’ve spoken with countless runners about what drives them to lace up and move. Each story is like a fingerprint — deeply personal, yet strangely universal.

Craft is no different. We bring our voice, our history, and our passion to the work. Mastery, in either pursuit, isn’t achieved overnight. It’s long and often quiet. There are no shortcuts, no room for illusion. Just consistent, deliberate effort. The willingness to explore, refine, and let the soul guide the hand, or the stride, is what gives both running and craft their meaning.

As a maker and runner, I live within the journey. The practice itself is the transformation. Craft shapes ideas and raw materials into authentic expressions that offer a connection with the objects and belongings in our lives. There is beauty in something made by hand. It carries meaning. It resonates.

And, like craft, honest and genuine running resists efficiency. It’s unpredictable. Intuitive more than instructional. Even the best training plans falter when life intervenes. We adapt. We recommit. And in that recalibration, we move closer to something that resembles excellence, our unique version of it.
