Men's Clothing Online — Shop the Full Basics Life Range

Basics Life has been making menswear that lasts since 1985. What started as a single store in South India is now a 123-store retail network and an online catalog of over 7,500 active styles — built around the wardrobe pieces Indian men actually need: shirts, t-shirts, trousers, jeans, jackets, blazers, sweaters, sweatshirts, shorts, track pants, overshirts, and the basics underneath. Every piece in the range is engineered for the Indian climate first: breathable cotton-heavy fabrics for the 9-month warm season, considered fits that suit Indian frames, and construction that survives 50+ wash cycles without losing shape, dye, or stitch integrity.

The collection covers the full wardrobe arc. Men's shirts across slim and relaxed fits, in cotton, linen, viscose blends, with check, stripe, plain, and printed designs — the workday staple. Men's t-shirts in muscle and relaxed cuts with crew-neck, polo, henley, and V-neck options for off-duty wear. Trousers in skinny, tapered, drift, comfort, and relaxed fits for office and smart-casual; jeans in the brand's signature Blade, Drift, Torque, and Kerb fits with cotton-stretch construction. Plus jackets, blazers, sweatshirts, sweaters, and innerwear in boxer shorts and briefs.

Free shipping on all prepaid orders. Cash on Delivery available across India. 30-day free returns — try at home, return free if it doesn't fit your style. Pay via UPI, cards, net banking, or wallets at checkout.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes do Basics Life products come in?
Our shirts and t-shirts run XS to XXXL, our trousers and jeans cover waist sizes 28 to 42, and innerwear covers S to XXL. Each product page has a SIZE CHART link with exact measurements (chest, waist, length, sleeve, inseam) so you can compare against a garment that already fits you. If the size you ordered isn't right, free 30-day returns mean you can exchange or refund without paying shipping in either direction.
Is shipping free across India?
Yes — free shipping on all prepaid orders across India. COD orders carry a small shipping fee shown at checkout. Standard delivery is 2-3 days for metro cities (Chennai, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Pune) and 4-7 days for tier-2 and tier-3 cities. You'll receive an SMS and email with tracking the moment your order ships from our Chennai warehouse.
Can I pay Cash on Delivery (COD)?
Cash on Delivery is available across all serviceable PIN codes in India, with extra fee of Rs.60. You can also pay online via UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, BHIM), credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Rupay, Amex), net banking, or e-wallets — prepaid orders save you an additional 5% off the order value at checkout.
What is the return and exchange policy?
30 days from delivery, no questions asked. Items must be unworn, unwashed, with original tags attached. Reverse-pickup is free — we collect from your doorstep at no charge. Size or colour exchange is also free; we ship the replacement and pick up the original in the same trip. Refunds process within 5-7 business days of pickup back to your original payment method.
Where are Basics Life retail stores located?
123+ stores across South India — concentrated in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Kerala, with select stores in Maharashtra. Use the Store Locator on our website to find your nearest outlet, view its hours, and check available stock. Many customers browse online and try-on in-store before deciding.
Are products true-to-size for Indian builds?
Yes — every Basics Life pattern is built for standard Indian fit. A Medium fits a 38-40 inch chest; trouser sizes match the actual waist inch measurement on the label. For a more relaxed feel, size up by one; for a sharper silhouette, choose your usual size. SIZE CHART tables on every product page show exact measurements so you can compare directly with a garment that already fits.
