Product description

The traditional shemagh scarf which has also found its way to western military use. Many colors available.

The shemagh scarf, also known as keffiyeh, ghutra, and hatta, is traditional Arabic headwear. For quite some time, these "Palestinian scarves" have been popular all around the globe and not just in a certain region.

As so often with fashion, armed forces have been the forerunners who realized this item's practical and fashionable value. The British men at arms have been using these for over 70 years, and in the Gulf War it was introduced to American forces as well.

Features

A shemagh is a warm and comfy scarf when worn around the neck but can be tied to cover the entire head leaving just a slit for the eyes to protect the wearer from elements.

Size: 110 x 110 cm / 43" x 43". The shemagh is usually utilized folded as a triangle (i.e., in half). Then it can be wrapped around the head, leaving parts exposed if needed. Here is an illustrated guide on how to wrap the shemagh the "proper" way. Bandanas and capes aside, this can be used as a makeshift bag or a bandage - just use your imagination.

Factory new, 100% cotton.

Well, it's a shemagh. It's loosely woven, so pretty airy. I ordered the khaki version and it's more towards the yellow end of the colour spectrum than true khaki. Then again, I'm not going to be crawling around in the desert anyway.
