What they do
ZONE makes premium activewear for children aged 7–14 years
What happened
The brand was co-founded by sisters Archana Khosla Burman and Niharika Khosla Sehgal
Why it matters
It fills a gap as no other Indian brand focuses solely on kids' activewear
The details
- ZONE is India's first premium activewear brand exclusively for children aged 7–14 years.
- The brand was co-founded by sisters Archana Khosla Burman and Niharika Khosla Sehgal.
- ZONE's garments are lightweight, breathable, flexible, and durable for sports and everyday movement.
- The design process is based on observing how children naturally move to enable unrestricted movement.
- Fabrics are moisture-managing, breathable, soft on skin, and selected for longevity.
- The brand targets parents seeking purpose-built activewear for children, not just fashion.
- ZONE differentiates itself by focusing solely on children's activewear, not as an extension of an existing fashion label.
The bigger picture
- No premium brand dedicated to children's activewear existed in India before ZONE.
- Children are participating in sports more, and parents now prioritise fabric quality, durability, and comfort.
- Existing products in the market are scaled-down adult sportswear, not designed for children's needs.
