"This handkerchief factory was found 200 kilometers from Delhi. It is located in a floor of a multi-tenant building which overflows with workers, machines, products and materials. We had no idea what many of these things were, which is a common sight in the factories of India. What we ordered was an inexpensive, durable white handkerchief that can be used as a dust cloth after it serves its purpose as a handkerchief. Even though each one is made by machine, they all vary a little in size and you cannot help but notice the occasional unevenness. There is something very special about having something made in an Indian factory. The beauty and feel of the final product is hard to put into words."

Since its founding in Japan in 2007, the brand has operated on the premise that the most interesting materials are those that already have a life behind them.  Puebco works with salvaged and reclaimed sources — recycled military tents and clothing, decommissioned mail bags, truck upholstery, and repurposed parachutes — redesigning them into garments, bags, rugs, and home goods and bringing new life to the materials. Items are made in small batches to keep overproduction minimal and each run intentional.
