What our founders have been up to this summer?

This weekend, raced the Ironman in Tallinn. She’s a long-distance ultra runner but occasionally taps into triathlon too, having finished multiple full-distance Ironman races.

This year’s race in Tallinn was wet and stormy, making claiming yet another Ironman title even sweeter 🏅

Stolt design is rooted in functionalism. The famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto was known for his human centred approach to functionalism. Our interpretation is Runner Centred Functionalism.

Current location 📍We are deep in design work in a place surrounded by great Nordic design and architecture, Jyväskylä. New pieces are coming, and our classic Alpha design remains our compass.

Hi! 👋

If you’re new here, we thought we’d introduce ourselves.

We’re Katja and Keijo, the founders of Stolt Running.

Keijo is the person you’re most likely to chat with if you have a question about your order. He also works closely with many of our athletes whilst training for his own ultra races, and sometimes even delivers orders in person around London, by running them to you ;) He’s not much into social media, preferring to meet and support runners in real life and is currently training for a Backyard Ultra (Ben Runs Trails how we looking buddy? 😅)

Katja looks after the business as a whole, the brand, product development, brand partnerships, race collaborations and, well… a bit of everything else. She’s currently training for another Ironman (not her first!) proudly repping 10IronWomen 🫡 and the big one in January 2027: the Spine Race, where she’ll be taking on the Challenger South supported by Camino Ultra , and coaches Paula Bedford David_Camino_Ultra_Bone 🙏

Together, we design every Stolt running pack and test new ideas with our Stolt Endurance Lab – a brilliant group of dedicated distance runners who help us refine every detail before a product reaches you.

We’re proud to still be an independent, “founder-run business” (pun intended 😄). Every decision we make starts with one question: will this help runners?

We’ll be heading back to Finland, where we’re originally from, for a few weeks in August, so expect plenty of Nordic landscapes, training updates and a behind-the-scenes look at where many of our ideas begin.

Thanks for being here, and if you see us at a race, come and say hello!

Michael from repping the Stolt Athlete Ultralight backpack. 🙏

The Athlete Ultralight is the lightest Stolt running backpack (as the name suggests...) and at just 420g, it’s the perfect companion for everything from long trail adventures to speedy run commutes when you only need to carry the essentials (~12L capacity).

We’ve been incredibly happy to see runners from the streets of London to the trails of Finland putting this new design to the test.

This drop is now almost sold out, with the last remaining pieces available now, but we can confirm that the Athlete Ultralight is here to stay and will remain in the collection.

Thank you Michael for the excellent running, and modelling :)

🔥 Runners 🔥
It’s hot. This is your sign to find a local pool and take a dip.

And don’t worry, it won’t make you a triathlete overnight… (but be warned, you might get hooked ;)
