Langota

Langota is a type of undergarment worn by men in India. It is a piece of cloth that is tied around the waist and between the legs to keep the private parts secured and comfortable. It is similar to underwear but it does not have a pouch in front.
Imagine wearing a big piece of cloth that covers your buttocks and front private parts, then wrapping it around your waist and bringing it between your legs to tie it. That's what a langota is!
It is commonly worn by wrestlers and athletes to provide support to their muscles and prevent injuries. It is also worn by laborers and farmers for support during physical work.
