Anyone who’s braved a packed station knows the reflex: you pat every pocket, praying your wallet’s still there.

Charlie and Ben felt that jolt of panic in Leicester Square in 2023. Fresh off the plane from Sydney, pockets full of newly exchanged pounds, they discovered their cash was gone—and with it, the carefree joy of the trip. Every crowded platform after that was spent with one hand guarding their pockets and the other gripping their bags, the “what-ifs” drowning out the adventure.

Back home, they decided no traveller should have to tour a city in fight-or-flight mode. Their result was the Skye Travel Sling—built big enough for the true essentials, tough enough for rough journeys, and smart enough to hide what matters in discreet, tamper-proof pockets.

Travel should feel exhilarating, not anxious. That’s why we created Avion: a growing line of worry-free travel gear—starting with Skye and expanding soon with more smart essentials to keep every journey calm, light, and secure.
