TORONTO — Porter Airlines is celebrating 20 years with a little extra style, launching a limited-edition crewneck sweater in collaboration with Montréal-based clothing brand Kuwalla Tee.
Available in two designs, the Cabin Crewneck features either the statement “I Only Fly Economy” or Porter’s Mr. Porter raccoon mascot. The unisex sweater comes in the airline’s signature sky blue and retails for $130. Presale is now open at porter20.com, while quantities last.
“Porter has spent 20 years flying with style, care and charm, and all three of these characteristics are grounded in the attention to detail passengers know and love us for,” said Kevin Jackson, president, Porter Airlines. “The crewneck represents the feeling of flying in comfort with Porter, which is why we chose to work with Kuwalla Tee as a highly-regarded Canadian brand.”
Jackson added that the “I Only Fly Economy” design reflects how Porter passengers value the experience and little luxuries without expecting an extravagant price tag.
