Kurtas for men – Feast your eyes on some amazing designs

Who says men’s kurtas are boring? They are today among the most versatile of garments. And with the festive season round the corner, this is a must have for all men.

Unni Maxx, a disability rights activist from Kerala, loves to wear kurtas. As a wheelchair user, his preference is for kurtas that are of a slightly shorter length. Given Kerala’s hot and humid temperatures, his choice of fabric is but naturally, cotton.

Here’s Unni wearing one of his favourites. A sandalwood colored kurta with long sleeves teamed with a mundu. We did say versatile! “I prefer shorter kurtas to long ones because they are easier to adjust when I am on the wheelchair.”

If like Unni, you are partial to cotton, do check out the Green Striped Kurta from Manyavar. This comes with a Chinese collar and is lime green in colour. The length is below the knee and works well for both casual and festive occasions.

There are many advantages to having a solid coloured kurta like the one above. You can wear them as they are or throw a jacket on for a more festive look like Dr Riitesh Sinha, an innovator with cerebral palsy from Karnal, Haryana, has done in this picture.

“Being a wheelchair user, I prefer wearing short kurtas with a collar of the Chinese type. The designs of some readymade kurtas are such that they become fluffy from the front while sitting, so I wear them with jackets so it looks settled.”
