Our Story

Toxikiing started the way most good streetwear stories do — with a design we wanted to wear and couldn’t buy anywhere. In 2024 the options for an Indian gamer who wanted a decent graphic tee were all bad. Fan merch came printed on thin 160 GSM promotional blanks whose artwork cracked by the third wash. Imported anime pieces cost three to four thousand rupees before customs. And the marketplace sellers flooding search results were printing the same twelve stolen designs on the same flimsy shirts. We ordered from all of them. Every single one disappointed.

So we made our own, and set one rule that has never moved since.

The blank matters as much as the artwork

Every Toxikiing tee starts as 240 GSM French Terry cotton — roughly double the weight of a fast-fashion tee. That number is the whole difference. At 180 GSM a shirt clings, goes translucent in white, and loses its collar within a month. At 240 it drapes, holds structure, and still looks deliberate after a year of wear. Our hoodies push further to 300 GSM brushed fleece.

The cut is a true drop-shoulder oversized pattern, not a regular tee ordered a size up — which is what most “oversized” listings online actually are. Every blank is pre-shrunk and bio-washed before printing, then double-stitched at the shoulders and hems where shirts fail first. If a garment wouldn’t be worth wearing blank, no print can rescue it.

Artwork drawn for print, not screenshotted

Our designs live where gaming, anime and street culture overlap — Mobile Legends heroes rendered like album covers, crossover-era tributes, kawaii café graphics, minimal typography pieces. Every one is original artwork drawn in-house specifically for garment printing, which matters more than it sounds. Art built for a screen falls apart on fabric: thin lines disappear, gradients band, dark areas turn into stiff plastic panels.

We print high-density, which bonds the ink into the fabric so it flexes instead of sitting on top like a sticker. It costs more than the heat-transfer vinyl most sellers use. It’s also why our prints survive the wash test that kills theirs.

Your design, our blanks

Alongside our own drops runs custom printing. Upload your artwork and it ships on exactly the same premium blank — no downgrade to a cheaper shirt because it’s a one-off. A human proofs every file before it reaches the press, and we message you on WhatsApp if something won’t print well. We would rather delay your order by a day than send you something we wouldn’t wear.

Printed in India, answered by humans

Everything is designed, printed and shipped from India. Free tracked shipping nationwide, Cash on Delivery if you prefer it, and a 7-day exchange when the size isn’t right. We answer our own WhatsApp — usually within the hour, and it’s a person who knows your order, not a chatbot cycling through canned replies.

We’re small enough that every order genuinely matters and stubborn enough that the quality isn’t negotiable. That’s the entire business model.

Welcome to Toxikiing. Wear what nobody else can.
