The Kerala double mundu is more than just a piece of traditional clothing — it’s a cultural emblem worn with pride across generations. Worn by men during festivals, temple visits, weddings, and other special occasions, the double mundu reflects the simplicity, discipline, and elegance deeply rooted in Kerala’s heritage.
At Haradhi, we bring you an exclusive range of Kerala double mundu, crafted by skilled artisans from Kuthampully, Kerala’s renowned handloom village. Every piece we offer carries forward the essence of tradition while ensuring comfort and style for the modern man.
What is a Double Mundu?
A double mundu, also called randu mundu, is a two-layered garment traditionally worn by men in Kerala. Unlike the single mundu, the double mundu consists of an extra fold or layer, often with a prominent golden kasavu border or coloured stripe that adds grace and formality to the attire. It is wrapped around the waist, with the upper portion sometimes folded to display the decorative border.
This attire is deeply symbolic in Kerala’s cultural landscape — often seen during festivals like Onam, Vishu, or during ceremonial rituals and religious gatherings. It speaks of tradition, respect, and understated dignity.
Handwoven in Kuthampully
Our Kerala double mundu are handwoven in Kuthampully, a village known for preserving the legacy of Kerala’s weaving craft. The cotton used is soft, breathable, and perfectly suited to Kerala’s tropical climate, making the mundu not just elegant but also extremely comfortable.
The kasavu border, usually made with golden or copper zari, is carefully woven to reflect tradition while adding a festive richness to the look. Whether it’s for a groom, a family function, or a cultural event, a Kuthampully-made double mundu adds authenticity and class.

How to Style the Kerala Double Mundu
While the double mundu is traditionally worn with a white or cream shirt, you can also pair it with a kasavu shirt, kurta, or even a mel mundu (upper cloth) for a more formal look. For weddings or temple functions, gold accessories and a well-folded mundu add an extra layer of elegance.
Whether you are a groom dressing for your big day or simply want to celebrate Onam in true Kerala style, a Kerala double mundu from Haradhi is the perfect choice.
