Living in a tea-obsessed country like India and not enjoying our finest produce is something that has always puzzled me. But we can easily change that, thanks to passionate brands like Satori.

Andamen is a great one-stop-shop for your shirt wardrobe, if you identify with their idea of India-inspired, premium menswear. Fabrics are high quality, finishing is top-notch and colours are on point.

The bold socks trend isn’t new any more, but SockSoho (earlier known as SocksBakery) shows us there’s still room for subtlety as well as creatively experimenting with quirky designs like Vikings, The Queen’s Guard or even a tribute to Steve Jobs.

Shirts made with unique designs, handwoven fabrics and a distinctly vintage vibe translate into slow fashion done right.

Chocolate is very much a part of the artisanal revolution where small-batch, Indian bean-to-bar makers are challenging our notion of chocolate’s flavour, nuances and character.

Classic, but not classic. Quirky, but not quirky. The folks at dmodot have comfort and style on their mind, and offer something for all your leather footwear needs.

Bareek’s handwoven shirts are a blend of well-measured modernity and centuries-old local traditions. They’re honest in price and heavy on character.
