Nihung kachera (type worn with bana)

Length reaching knees. Aasan (middle part) length can be down to mid thighs

Width is normally double waist circumference.

Simple/Regular kachera (type for wearing at home, with jeans/trousers)

Big enough for comfort, and modesty.

A lot of men in india wear kachees LMAO   thats just wrong in many ways!   boys after a certain age should progress to kachas    but in india many men wear kachiya 

we used to have married guys from india living nxt door and they used have kachees drying on the washing line. 

I also dnt get why some men wear vests under their tshirts?  its not weird   but i just dnt get why?

What do u mean by width ? circumference of kachhera or just width of kachhera ? because circumference would be 2 times the width.

Yes I mean circumference. If your waist circumference was 34 inch then make the kachera circumference about 68 inch

Doubling it should give enough extra material to bunch up for modesty

Helps with soaking up sweat so it doesn't seep through into the shirt, and making an unsightly spectacle. Probably more useful in a hot climate where people start perspiring as soon as they step outside the front door. I don't think it's an issue in colder countries.

I have heard kachhera should cover the knee cap area and the leg hole should be narrow enough to not move any upper than the knee even when tried to pull up . And kachhera circumference should be 3 times the circumference of waist. is it true ?

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
