neat little shop is filled with graffiti writings from their customers. They’ve got it all, from skinny
jeans to bellbottoms, to the latest acid wash, you can find it all under one roof.

The store has been around for many years and Tarun Lakhani the store’s owner says, “We have about
30-40 walk ins everyday and about 80-100 on the weekends.” What makes the customers chose his denims

We are also a little ahead of fashion and have similar items as Zara” he tells us.

The customers at the shop have no negative comments. “I love the plain black jeans and I think they
fit like any other branded pair. It is also very reasonable” says Shreya, a student from Mount Carmel College,
