Independent reporting on the materials, brands, factories and people shaping how India dresses.
The Souled Store sells other people’s characters on cotton. Five licences are documented by name and date, the company claims over 150, and not one published source gives a term or an expiry. On Myntra it charged 90.1 per cent of MRP on 11 September 2026 at a median of ₹1,799.
Rare Rabbit is the dearest D2C menswear name read in India on 11 September 2026, at a median ₹1,999 charged on Myntra.

Blackberrys is still held by the Mohan family, with no private-equity or institutional investor anywhere on the record. Its own shop charges 95.6% of the struck price against 86.0% of MRP on Myntra, and it publishes no fabric weight at all.
XYXX charges 72.4% of the struck price on its own store against 79.4% of MRP on Myntra, read 11 September 2026 — the only brand on this shelf cheaper at home. It is also the first clothing brand read here to publish a fabric weight, on 21 of 1,126 product descriptions.
DaMENSCH declared one manufacturer on all 40 Myntra records read on 11 September 2026 — the tightest declaration of any Indian D2C menswear brand read here.
