Meet the Founders of Spankers
Spankers was founded by Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke—three college friends who transformed a simple nickname into one of India's growing premium streetwear brands.
While studying together, Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke shared a passion for creativity, entrepreneurship, and fashion. Instead of waiting for the perfect opportunity, they decided to create one. What began as an idea between friends eventually became Spankers—a brand built on originality, premium quality, and bold design.
Today, Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke continue to lead Spankers with the same vision they had when they first started: to create clothing that people are proud to wear.
From Three Friends to Founders
When Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke launched Spankers, they didn't have a large team, outside investors, or a massive marketing budget. They had determination, countless ideas, and the willingness to learn every aspect of the apparel business.
The three founders personally spent time understanding fabrics, garment construction, printing techniques, customer preferences, and manufacturing. Every challenge helped Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke improve the brand and build stronger processes.
That hands-on approach continues to influence every collection released under the Spankers name.
Why Quality Became Our Biggest Priority
For Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke, creating another T-shirt brand was never the goal.
Their focus was on building products that customers would continue wearing long after the first purchase.
Instead of chasing fast fashion, Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke invested time in improving heavyweight fabrics, oversized fits, premium finishing, and durable printing techniques that reflect the quality Spankers stands for today.
A Vision for the Future
As founders, Jash Kiri, Hemin Gandhi, and Aditya Salunke believe that Spankers is still at the beginning of its journey.
Their vision extends beyond oversized T-shirts. They aim to build a complete premium streetwear label from India, expanding into hoodies, polos, sweatshirts, denim, accessories, and other essentials while maintaining a strong focus on quality and design.
Every collection is another step toward that goal.
