About Terry Singh & The Essential Wrap
A Personal Statement from Terry Singh

After a life-changing trip to India, I came back remembering something I hadn’t yet put into words.
‍
I saw men moving through the world with presence — dressed in garments that didn’t borrow from the West, didn’t demand stiffness, and didn’t apologize for softness.
It was elegant. Grounded. Free.

I didn’t want to wear colonial garments to feel seen.
I didn’t want to give up my masculinity.
I just wanted to define it on my own terms.

Most men are still taught that strength looks a certain way.
That power has a uniform. That freedom has to be earned.

But I come from an unbroken line of people who survived, who carried beauty, wisdom, and rhythm — long before those uniforms ever existed.

The Essential Wrap began as something I made for myself.

I wanted something I could move in, feel in, live in — without losing my shape or my sense of self.

Not fashion. Not costume. Just presence, made visible.

I wore it everywhere — in stillness, in celebration, in grief, in becoming.
And when people started asking for one, I realized I wasn’t alone.
There are men everywhere looking for a way to dress that reflects who they are — without having to trade in their roots, or their freedom, to do it.

Every Wrap is cut and sewn by hand in New York City.
This isn’t about trends.
It’s about returning to something we were never meant to forget.

‍A garment of liberation.
Made for truth, not tradition.
