Brand.

We didn’t start in a boardroom.
We started in Hostel Room G314, IIT Bhilai — frustrated that premium campus merch didn’t exist. So we built it.

Everyone said just
buy from Amazon.

You know the feeling. You want something that represents your campus, your branch, your batch — something you’d actually wear outside a lab, not just to a farewell.

What you find instead: 150 GSM fabric that shrinks after 3 washes. The same design sold to 40 different colleges. Logos that crack in a month. Fabric that feels like paper.

We were there too. So we applied first-principles thinking to the only problem that mattered: why does campus merch have to be this bad?

150 GSM = garbage Same design, 40 colleges Cracks after 5 washes No story behind it Faceless seller
Build from scratch. Make it actually premium. Put a real person behind it.
The answer — July 2025

Hostel Room. Zero Budget. All In.

KS Verse launched with one product for IIT Bhilai. No investors. No agency. No safety net. Just a B.Tech student, a Shopify store, and a belief that the product had to be different.

First drop sold out. Messages started coming in. “Bhai yeh toh actually premium hai.” That was the signal.

Six weeks later: all 23 IITs, BITS Pilani. 600+ retail orders, 550+ bulk orders. The campus merch market had a new standard.

Hi, I’m Kamalesh Swargam, a BTech student at IIT Bhilai. I founded KS Verse because I was tired of boring, low-quality college apparel. Students deserved better.

KS Verse isn’t just another merch brand. We’re a community built on the hustle of student life — premium, campus-specific apparel designed by students, for students.
