The men shirts possess a high potential market in India but majority of brands hesitate using khadi fabric for making men’s shirts. Khadi is considered difficult to be used for mass production by industry due to its time-consuming process. But it has high potential and a sustainable profile. The fabric can be considered an eco-healthy idea for the fashion industry. The paper discusses the limitations which are derived after conducting experimental research.
