The khăn rằn (khăn "towel, scarf" rằn "striped") is a traditional checkered black and white shawl, derived from the Khmer krama and worn in the region of Mekong Delta in Vietnam.
During the Vietnam War, the distinctive scarf was donned by the Khmer Rouge and Viet Cong soldiers to identify themselves.
