their company upcycles discarded aircraft seating fabrics into luxury bags and accessories with a backstory and personality. the textiles have travelled around the world, had good days and bad, up in the air and down on the ground,they have seen it all and now plane aims to breathe new life into them, giving a new purpose for a new journey.

the fabrics gathered for creating the accessories have a familiar aesthetic that may have been seen while traveling. inside each bag and on every case  there is a stamp of the average journey the fabric has taken during the course of its life. the brothers were influenced by story each individual textile has and their hope is for people to also feel this. each piece resonates with personality and history whilst standing for a better way of making.
