About IIT Kanpur
Sprawling across 1,055 acres of flat Kalyanpur land — 15 km west of Kanpur city on the Grand Trunk Road — IIT Kanpur is one of India's most immersive campuses: once inside, the outside world feels distant [¹]. Founded in 1959 as the fourth IIT, it was the first in India to launch a computer science programme. Freshers land in Halls 2, 3, 5 and 10 before earning single rooms in later years — the numbered hall system (up to 13+) is central to campus identity [¹]. Every October, Antaragni — running since 1965 — floods the open-air theatre with music, dance and drama. Come March, Techkriti (est. 1995, now in its 32nd edition) turns the campus into one of Asia's largest tech-and-entrepreneurship festivals [²]. Alumni like N. R. Narayana Murthy (MTech EE, 1969), founder of Infosys, and Arvind Krishna (1985), CEO of IBM, carry the IITK badge worldwide. Wear the campus on your chest.

About our Caps
6-panel structured cap in 100% brushed cotton twill with a pre-curved brim and adjustable plastic back strap. One size fits most. The front panel carries a single embroidered design — either institute name, dept abbreviation, or batch year. Embroidery is stitched at 4,000+ stitch density so the edges stay sharp after regular wear. Spot-clean with a damp cloth, do not machine-wash.

FAQs about IIT Kanpur
How long does delivery to IIT Kanpur (Kalyanpur campus) take?
IIT Kanpur is in Kalyanpur, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh — PIN 208016. Orders from our Mumbai and Bangalore fulfilment warehouses typically arrive in 4–6 business days. For hostel delivery, use your full hall name and room number (e.g., 'Hall 5, Room 312, IIT Kanpur, Kalyanpur, Kanpur – 208016'). Campus security at the main gate will ask couriers to call ahead; add your mobile number to the address notes at checkout to avoid delays.
When is IIT Kanpur's Convocation, and should I order merch before it?
IIT Kanpur holds its Convocation in late June. The 57th Convocation was on June 29, 2024 and the 58th on June 23, 2025 — so late June is the consistent window. We recommend placing your order at least 2 weeks before Convocation day. Standard apparel ships in 5–7 business days; custom prints with department or batch text need an extra 3–4 days.
Do you sell official Antaragni or Techkriti merchandise?
We are not an official vendor for Antaragni or Techkriti. Our IITK collection is year-round institute-themed merchandise — campus-life tees, GT Road-inspired prints, hall-name hoodies — designed for students and alumni who want to carry the spirit of IITK beyond fest season. For official fest merch, check the Antaragni and Techkriti committees directly on their respective websites.
Can I place a bulk order for my hall, department, or batch?
Yes. For orders of 15 or more units, write to bulk@iitianvibes.com with your institute (IIT Kanpur), quantity, preferred design, and deadline. Bulk orders typically have a 10–14 day production lead time plus shipping. We offer custom neck labels and packaging for large batches, and per-unit pricing drops significantly at scale.
Can I get my hall name or department printed on the merch?
For bulk orders (15+ units), we can add your hall number or name, department abbreviation (CSE, EE, Met, AE, etc.), or batch year — email bulk@iitianvibes.com with your specs. For single-unit customization (e.g., one hoodie with 'Hall 5' on the back), reach out via the Contact page and we'll assess it case by case; single custom prints are possible but carry a small additional fee and a longer turnaround.
