Planks Clothing
Planks Clothing, based in the UK, crafts distinctive clothing designed to provide both protection and style in mountainous terrains. Their range includes casual attire and ski wear, inspired by the freeride skiing culture. Numerous items, like the Planks ski jacket, are crafted from recycled materials that are sustainably sourced to reduce carbon emissions.
Founded in 2008 by Jim Adlington, who began by selling t-shirts from his car boot, Planks Clothing emerged when Jim, a professional freeride skier, identified the absence of brands embodying his sport. Jim's ethos of using the mountains as a canvas for personal expression with a smile is reflected in the design of every Planks garment.
Transitioning from printing t-shirts in car parks to creating high-quality ski jackets and trousers worn by professionals, Planks has experienced a remarkable journey.
