Not that serious

A line on
every top.

Funny for a day off. A nudge when the work is the smart kind. A push for the gym. Banana-cotton underneath, and the Daily Crew still in the picture.

“deep work”

The daily crew. Same knit, worn in.

Pick the day

The cloth

Banana for the hand.
Cotton for the shape.

A banana-cotton blend, knitted in India for weather that does not do “spring jacket.” Soft against skin, structured enough that the tee still looks like a tee at the end of the day.

01

A cooler fibre

Banana fibre moves heat off skin faster than a plain cotton jersey. Useful when the day is already warm.

02

Soft on day one

You should not have to wash a new tee five times before it feels like yours. This one starts there.

03

Holds a line

Cotton in the blend keeps the shoulder and hem from collapsing. Soft, not floppy.

04

Easy to live in

Cut for a desk, a day off, and a training hour. The line changes. The cloth does not.

The knits

Three knits, one promise

Everyday jersey

Soft Peel

220 GSM banana-cotton single jersey. Enough weight to hang, light enough for a humid afternoon.

Oversized drape

Heavy Bunch

280 GSM with a looped back. Sits on the shoulder instead of clinging, and still feels soft on the first wear.

Graphics that stay

Printed Peel

The same everyday jersey, with a water-based chest print. No cracked plastisol after a few washes.

From the founders

We wore them first.

Banana Beings is soft apparel that refuses to be serious. Every top carries a line, and the knit is still the part we fuss over. If it itched, it did not ship.

Asha & Dev · Bengaluru

  • Stays soft
  • Holds its shape
  • Prints that don’t crack
  • Sits right after a wash

Notes

From early wearers

“Wore the Lounge Tee through a week of lectures. Collar still looks new. That’s the whole review.”

MeeraPune

“The oversized one doesn’t turn into a sail. Heavy enough to drape, not hot. Ordering the ink colour again.”

ArjunBengaluru

“Too Ripe print is small, which is the point. People ask what it says. They don’t ask me to turn around.”

NilaKochi

“First Peel was the cheap one and it still feels like the expensive one. Suspicious, in a good way.”

KabirDelhi

“Crop Being sits at the waist of my jeans and stays there. Most crops in this price ride up.”

SaraHyderabad

“Wore Daily Crew on a bus with no AC. It didn’t glue itself to my back. Buying dusk next.”
