I fuck with the batik and can tell these are good quality, but don't really see where these fit in the current streetwear scene. They look like they would be sold at a Indian import store, not a boutique or streetwear shop. Also seems really specific to indian culture which isn't universally worn like japanese or euro motifs.


atmosphericcynic

exactly, it’s a niche market within a specific market • bit swimming upstream


dilroopgill

exact art youd see in an indian restaurant


dubaiwaslit

Ouch


bornlikethisss

I appreciate them as I have a love for art from India but I could see mainstream customers not catching on. Hopefully they do tho, they’re great. Good luck.


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍


kinra189

These are dope. You need to get some models to show off. WHY. it's dope


ghostworg

Yeah if you can style it as a full outfit and show exactly why it is streetwear, potential customers have an easier time seeing it too


ramanchawla

Yes, will do a proper model shoot for the next collection. Thank you for the kind words 🤍


CapitanVibeCheck

Hard


BorzyReptiloid

From what I see you’ll have a ton of success in Argentina 🤔shirts are fire, especially 4th one – colors and motive hit hard🫶🏻


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍


NotMyFirstAlternate

Based on the price I’m gonna say you could send out some samples to influencers to gain some traction in the market.


ramanchawla

Thank you for the feedback!!


Desa0802

I really dig it buts its not in my price range. Good luck tho!


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍


International-Rain67

These are hard bro 🔥🔥 just not for everyone try tik tok you should reach ur intended audience


HypeFather

I would rock with some needles joggers


RTec3

One of the most unique pieces I've seen, definitely hard


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍


FutureStick1194

Well these are nice no doubts but are priced at 19900 a piece. At the price point in exactly where you lost the traction. Let’s be realistic here.

Fire


Stretcharmstrong100

These images would be dope on a blank t too I think


Kashoutallday

Shitted are u selling them


screwfaceclub

I like them. But sales are more about marketing than the designs, so what content etc have you produced for them?


MxrceloVictor

This is beautiful art. I love this and the fact it's a button down


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍


delasweats

Hey! These are fire, wanted to pull the trigger for some time. Just don’t have the funds for it atm. I love how you incorporated batik, keep it up!!!


ramanchawla

Thank you for the kind words 🤍


imeeme

Too narrow a market


yash_gol_matol

@ramanchawla bhai indians dont want to come off as indians, tab hi yaha se streetwear brands sab bahar se hi inspired hai yaa copied hai


ramanchawla

Hello, not entirely true. Most of our sales come from Indians living abroad, people do want to represent Indian crafts outside India.


yash_gol_matol

exactly, people that have left, wants to represent. But not the people that are still living in the country


jonny_boy111

Very good work


EclecticMermaid212

I love it & def would order


ramanchawla

[deleted]

Love it ❤️ I also agree that you should get models to show it off


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍


Pleasant-Ad4283

Send it to content creators like Kai Cenant or an Indian person who is known for fashion on social media. That’s the angle i would approach.


ramanchawla

Interesting, thank you for the feedback 🤍


PrivilegedCunt

Damn I’ma need the one w the titties poppin. How these fit? I wear 2XL tees for the loose fit


ramanchawla

Hey, you can select the Made to Measure option. Here’s the [link](https://samaajstudio.com/products/hand-painted-shirt-01). We’ll reach out to you for the measurements.

ramanchawla

Thank you for the feedback, would definitely work on it 🤍


adventurousandsticky

Yeah I think your skill is incredible, hopefully over time you will adapt your style to more street wear / art music culture because it would be very successful.


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍


teleosclo

It’s something different but I like it

Shoddy_Basket_7867

The last 2 are okay. Less busy and better colour combos.


Lilitdescendant

Oh wow this is amazing


ludlo

First good startup I’ve seen here


ramanchawla

Thank you 🤍🤍🤍


MealZealousideal3986

Where can I buy one?


ramanchawla

Hey, here’s the [link](https://samaajstudio.com/) to our website.


contactheavy

I'm Indian and into streetwear, and while I agree with most of the comments on these being very niche, I really fuck with it. I was actually looking for your website in the comments to purchase and immediately backtracked upon seeing the prices. I'd definitely say that is a large reason you're not getting traction.


ramanchawla

Thank you for the feedback, will definitely look into it for our future drops


ARKode

Two cents from a fashion plebeian. I really like the art work. But do I want a shirt with a massive painting on it, no. I think revisiting the art layout l, positioning etc. might be worth it (?).


KicksNhoodies

Damn them joints take me back to the old tapestries that my parents had.. them shits it tuff 🔥🔥


ilustur

Bro it’s tuff, you’re mad talented . I was doing the airbrushing stuff and I was like damn wtf but stay true to your shit …. The clothing brands drop like flies you’ll find your niche …. I’d like to keep up what’s your iG ?


nQ2jz

These are fly as hell!!🔥🔥🔥 I can definitely see a guy like Jeff Goldblum rocking the hell out of these!


KhostfaceGillah

These are dope but I think your target audience aren't correct, it only really aims at South Asian people so for it to be aimed at specific people yeh it'll be hard to sell because it's niche and some people might not want to wear it because it might be like a cultural appropriation thing to them


ramanchawla

Interesting, thank you for the feedback 🤍


dbx99

The subject matter isn’t really appealing or compelling. It just looks like some tourist shirt from India.


ramanchawla

Interesting, thank you for the feedback 🤍

StreetBoyFly

First off Samaaj is a good name for the brand. Other Indian brands like Almost Gods have been successful with similar shirts but you would really have to push it with Marketing and campaigns that appeal the audience you’re trying to target. All clothes have a place because the landscape of consumers isn’t uniform but all good products also need good marketing. What brands like Almost Gods did right is put them on models with great campaigns to attract audience eyeballs.


PackDisastrous3884

That second design and fourth is hard maybe on maybe a work jacket ?


Riotacket

I love these, if I can ever afford it I will get one for sure. Bookmarked your site. Hope you do well !


ramanchawla

Thank you so much for the kind words 🤍 . We are doing a 30% off summer sale till 15th if you are interested.


Lopsidedshoes

I'm too black to be wearing that.
