Kartik Research

Kartik Research is a New Delhi label, founded by Kartik Kumra in 2021, built around the idea of putting humanness back into clothing. Its wovens are made on handlooms, the embroideries are done by hand, and the END listing adds plant dyes to that list. Because of this, no two pieces are identical, and the maker's mark is part of the appeal.

The brand works closely with master artisans and craft communities across India to revive forgotten techniques and bring them to a global audience. Its collections draw on Indian subcultures, from 60s psychedelic rock to the Indo-modernist art of the 80s. You'll find shirts and outerwear stocked in the UK at END.
