PLNGNS

ABOUT THE LABEL

"Old sneakers don't need to be burned like trash: "We're showing that there's another, more creative way out.""

PLNGNS was founded in August 2021 and we are looking for new silhouettes by reimagining existing ones. We take old shoes apart and create something new by reworking parts and giving them a new shape.

PLNGNS compares the process of making such shoes and clothing to painting on a canvas: with elements added as you go, the design can evolve as you go.

The main idea is to scale the brand, with a closed cycle of operation, where we recycle the so-called waste from them, create our own material and create new products from this material. We transform old unsuitable shoes into items of individual design, promoting the sustainable development of fashion and taking care of consumer culture in Ukraine and beyond.

It is important that all our products can have the same design for each product, but different execution details, since all used sneakers that we recycle have their own traces of use and individuality, so our products are always unique 1 of 1.

PLNGNS has an environmental advantage: parts of old shoes are used to create new ones, therefore during recycling the process produces virtually no carbon dioxide, and other residues are completely recycled.

Well, here we are and are planning to expand our brand concept in the fashion industry and make our brand model suitable for many brands, thereby turning this “game” around.
