Tapp CollectionsPremium Shemagh Head Neck Scarf

I ordered these to essentially play with . . . okay I saw them used on the series "The Unit" and thought they looked cool. They have good quality, and there are many different patterns and colours to get, and mine might look drab, but that has more to do with my colour blindness than anything else. Nonetheless, a few videos later, and I am tying this up like a desert dweller. The original developers of this amazing piece of cloth are enormously creative and intelligent. I am not writing from the big book of hyperbole when I say this - this would work well for the summer, but work as well in the winter. Here in Northwestern Ontario, the winter can be quite cold, and the wind can whip up rather quickly. This type of head and face covering is good for staying warm. I do own cold weather gear that is warmer, but not so light and easily packed.I do get people looking at me twice though, but they are walking so quickly to get out of the winter storm, they really don't bother me. Maybe they even look a bit jealous too. There are other things to wear, but this folds up nicely. It takes up very little space and has earned a special, and permanent place in my EDC and my Jeep.

Beautiful! Love love love it! Color is perfect. Fabric is a little light weight but it is pretty

This shemagh is the best I have seen.I have bought several when I have come across them in stores. Usually it was Army Surplus type stores, and I don't remember the brands of all the different ones that I have purchased. For a variety of reasons, I have never like the ones that I have purchased in the past.One of the biggest issues I with other brands that I have purchased in the past is that the material has been too heavy. To feel it, you would not think it was too thick. But, my the time you roll it up, or wrap it as a scarf, they have been rather thick and heavy. Wearing them in warmer weather, they have almost been unbearable. It is almost like wrapping a towel around your head or neck.This shemagh is very lightweight, and yet very durable. When rolled, it is not overly bulky. Yet, I don't feel like it is too thin. It is just excellent the way is!! Thick enough to be durable, but thin enough to be used in many weather conditions.One other feature that I like about this shemagh, compared to others that I have seen, and is not mentioned in the product description is the corners. The edges have knots and then frayed material. Many are that way all the way around. If you lay it out flat on the floor, the corners are easy to locate, but when you are standing up and trying to fold the shemagh, finding the corners is not as easy as you would think. Many styles of wraps require you to find the corners and fold it in half.WIth this shemagh, the corners are longer, and braided, to make it easy to find them, and to distinguish them from the rest of the tassels all along the edge. It makes it really easy to find the corners, do your folds, and get it tied up correctly.I can't say enough good things about this shemagh. I took a gamble and ordered 4 of them, because of the different colors, and I will be ordering more.

Nice colors and seems durable. About half the weight of others I've purchased. Slightly different weave, but appears to be good quality. Adequate for a cold weather wrap, but will probably shine in hot weather. Happy with it so far.

Very Nice, but NOT 100% COTTON! Put a flame to a tassel and you will see it melt, ball up, and drip molten material. Must be polyester or blend of synthetics. They advertise it as cotton, but the one I received was definately not. If that is not a concern for you, read on...This is a very solid material. It is slightly scratchy. Might be some wool, or goat hair, or camel hair in it, who knows? It does not come with a label for country of manufacture or materials. The scratchiness might go away after a couple washings.It is not exactly square, but nice and large, a full 44 inches not counting the tassels, which by the way are longer than tassels of some other shemaghs, and all four sides are tassled. Some other brands only have tassels on two sides.This Shemagh arrived properly packaged and it was clean and neat and did not have any foul odors or nasty stains.When I washed it, the color did not fade (Green and Black). I washed it by hand first, expecting the dyes to run, but they did not. After first use, I washed it in the the washing machine along with my towels, and still no fading can be seen.Here are some washing tips: I used one of those little zipper bags that my wife uses for delicate items, just to make sure it didn't get pulled apart in the washing machine. The open weave of these fabrics can get snagged on the machine or on zippers if you wash it with other items. Use cold water only. Don't put it in the dryer unless you want to tempt your fate with shrinkage. Just hang it up somewhere and let it dry. The fabric is thin, so they air dry pretty fast anyway.If you don't mind synthetic fibers, this Shemagh will do the job, and with that in mind I give it five stars.

Bought this for a Halloween custom and my son still uses it. Loves it! Great find
