Our story

Wildlife apparel, born in the Indian wild.

No matter what job I was in, no matter where I was, I was always thinking about getting back into the wild.

Where it began

It started as a question.

That feeling never left. It just got stronger.

I started TuckTribe because of a passion for wildlife and wildlife photography that I couldn't ignore any longer. The wild wasn't just something I loved. It was something I carried, everywhere, always.

What if clothing could carry that same feeling? What if every piece you wore was a connection to a real animal, a real landscape, a real story from the Indian wild?

That's still the question we're answering. One design at a time.

What we believe

Three things we hold on to.

Celebrate the wild

Indian wildlife deserves to be celebrated, not just in national parks and photography forums, but in everyday life. On the streets of Mysuru and Mumbai. In classrooms and cafes. On the backs of people who feel the forest even when they're far from it.

Clothing that means something

Not fast fashion. Not trends. Pieces that last, that tell a story, that connect the person wearing them to something real.

Honour the protectors

The people who protect India's wild, the guards, the rangers, the tribal communities, deserve to be seen, supported and celebrated as much as the animals they protect.

How we make

Made with precision, and with respect.

Embroidery

Premium embroidery

Every design is stitched with precision and care, because each species deserves that respect. It is personal work, built into the fabric to last.

Printing

DTG printing

For designs where colour, detail and illustration tell the story better.

Every TuckTribe piece is made in small batches. We don't mass produce. We don't chase trends. Every design is inspired by a real animal, a real ecosystem, a real moment in the Indian wild. Nothing is generic. Nothing is accidental.

Where we are

Home is Mysuru.

We are based in Mysuru, Karnataka, the heart of some of India's most important wildlife country. That proximity is not incidental. It shapes everything we make.

Giving back to the wild

50+

tees given to forest guards and tribal communities

As we grow, TuckTribe grows its commitment to the wild. 5% of every sale goes to TuckTribe Roots, our fund for forest guardians, tribal communities and conservation support across India.

We've already distributed over 50 tees to forest guards and tribal communities in BRT Hills in partnership with Friends of Wildlife. This is just the beginning.

TuckTribe is for everyone who feels the wild in their heart, whether you've sat in a hide at 5am waiting for a tiger, or you've never been to a forest but something in you knows you belong there.

You're one of us. Carry the wild.
