Our Story

Tepchi Men is not just a label, it’s a legacy. Born from the house of Men’s Martin, a name rooted in India’s sartorial heritage since the 1960s, Tepchi Men carries forward six decades of craftsmanship, trust, and timeless design.

Our journey began in a small workshop, stitching garments that spoke of precision and elegance. Over the years, that vision has grown into five flagship stores across India, each one a space where tradition and contemporary style meet. Tepchi Men is the next chapter — a brand dedicated to reviving the intricate art of chikankari for men and presenting it to the modern world with fresh energy.

The Art of Tepchi

At the heart of our identity lies the Tepchi stitch — one of the oldest and most delicate forms of chikankari embroidery. Minimal yet deeply expressive, Tepchi embodies refinement, subtlety, and patience. Each garment tells a story, hand-embroidered by skilled artisans who carry forward techniques passed down through generations in Lucknow.

We believe that chikankari is more than just embroidery. It is a language of heritage, a dialogue between past and present, tradition and individuality. Tepchi Men exists to give this craft a new canvas — men’s fashion — where elegance meets masculinity.

Craftsmanship & Artisans

Behind every Tepchi Men kurta lies hours of devotion, artistry, and human touch. Our network of artisans is the soul of our brand. By working directly with chikankari karigars, we ensure not only uncompromising quality but also the preservation of a fading craft.

Every stitch is a promise — a promise of authenticity, of respect for tradition, and of empowering the communities that have kept chikankari alive for centuries.

Sustainability & Ethos

We stand for more than fashion. Tepchi Men is about responsibility — to heritage, to people, and to the planet. By producing in small batches, emphasizing handcraft, and focusing on timeless designs rather than fast trends, we ensure every piece you wear is sustainable, meaningful, and enduring.

For us, less is truly more. We create garments that outlast seasons and trends, because heritage stitched with care never goes out of style.
