My Story
A second life for paragliders
Hi, I am Elisa! I founded MIOLENTO in 2022 with the goal to upcycle retired paragliders and parachutes, giving them a second life which you can wear and be inspired by. My mission is to fight our throwaway culture by giving value to what we already have.
Ready for adventure
Wearing a MIOLENTO product means to wear a piece which has flown for hundreds of flight hours over the most beautiful landscapes you can think of, at smooth weather and through turbulent conditions as well.
My slow flight
I learned from a young age to think twice before throwing away used materials, always asking myself whether they couldn’t be reused or serve a different purpose. When I found my passion in paragliding, I wondered what became of paragliders and rescue parachutes when they no longer serve for flying. I did not get a satisfying answer. So I found my own. This is how MIOLENTO was born.
