Designed as "an exercise in civilized living," VK Nagrani offers menswear for upstanding gentlemen. The menswear store's founder Vivek Nagrani feels socks are the distinguishing feature that elevate a gentleman from the average joes, and this philosophy is one that carries over to the apparel and accessories store. Shoppers are welcome by appointment-only, which further separates the men's store from the herd.
For the '72-Hour Man' who considers himself a global citizen, VK Nagrani is a menswear brand that focuses specifically on underwear, like Vivek's previous sock-centered venture Ovdafut. With cheeky names like Wang, Woody and Shaft, the underwear is made from high quality materials including prima cotton and vegetable dye. Other stock items extend to Tattoo Scarves and more socks.
