Streetwear in India has become big, but a lot of it still feels like it is made for photos, not for real life. The Litt was created to change that.
The brand focuses on men’s oversized and relaxed fit t-shirts that you can wear on campus, on late night drives, at gigs, or while building your next side project. The idea is simple. If a tee feels like you and survives heavy rotation, it stays.
The Spark Behind The Litt
Before starting The Litt, Returi Nagenddra spent 14 years inside top-tier agencies as the strategist in the room helping D2C giants find their voice. He mastered the art of brand identity, learning how to pulse-check culture and scale a business from just a name to a household staple.
Along the way, the cracks in the industry became hard to ignore—streetwear turning into hype over garments, and “community” becoming just another buzzword.
Teaming up with Varun Galda, who has worked with 50+ eCommerce and D2C brands across India, the US and Canada, the two decided to stop only consulting and start creating.
They took years of customer behaviour data and mapped out a different kind of clothing journey, one where the quality is heavy, the fit is intentional and the community is the heartbeat of the brand, not just a target audience.
Streetwear felt like the natural place to start. Not the loud logo kind that lives only on social media, but everyday streetwear that you throw on at 8 am and are still comfortable in at midnight. That meant going deep into one product category first: oversized and relaxed fit t-shirts for men, built for Indian weather and daily movement.
Turning Streetwear Into A Canvas, Not A Costume
The Litt sits under RNGV Lifestyles, but its personality is very much its own. Each drop is built around themes its community already loves: F1, Japanese art, space, nature and clean typography. The artwork is bold, but the fits are designed so that you never feel like you are wearing a costume.
Oversized tees use heavier GSM fabrics for structure and a premium drape. Relaxed fit tees sit in that sweet medium weight that feels soft and breathable without being flimsy. All fabrics are OEKO-TEX certified so they are tested to be free from harmful substances and kinder on the skin.
The focus is on necklines that do not sag in a month, prints that do not crack too fast and silhouettes that flatter, not fight the body.
Built Around Community, Not Just Customers
The Litt is very clear about who it is speaking to. Students trying to figure out careers. Creators filming at odd hours. Gamers, hoopers, bedroom producers, early-stage founders and people who just enjoy good design and comfort. The brand treats them as a community, not a target group.
That shows up in the way designs are chosen, how collections are themed and how the brand talks online. The aim is not to tell people who to be, but to give them a canvas that makes it easier to show who they already are. Oversized and relaxed fit t-shirts become a simple, everyday way to express that.
What Is Next For The Litt
The road ahead is about depth, not just scale. More themed drops, different types of products, stronger stories and collaborations that feel natural to the culture around the brand. But no matter what, the core will stay the same. Make streetwear that feels good, holds up after many wears and always respects the people wearing it.
