Jockey Pop-Up Museum: a photo feature

I was recently invited for the launch of a pop-up museum by Jockey India at Phoenix Market city, Bangalore.  On till 27th August, the museum is a truly revelation into the story behind one of the most successful brands since 1876.  A legend in its own right, the brand has been a pioneer and trend setter in more ways than one.  

Here are some glimpses:

Due to Jockey’s unmatched reputation, it was the obvious choice of NASA for innovative inner wear for Apollo 11’s manned mission to the moon.
