Fox OutdoorProducts Tactical Shemagh

Really nice and seams like it will work great. It’s massive tho, which isn’t that bad just big like a toddlers blanket.

For the price, this was a heck of a deal. Got mine at the 4.95 price point on sale! It is well made and can be easily fit any need you may have for it i.e. head covering , neck wrap, arm sling etc. Even at regular price it is well worth the purchase. Great material.

I misread the write-up and thought that I was ordering an oblong scarf. This is a square one and it is large.That said, I like the thinner weaver and the feel of the item. (I'm a weaver.) It can be hand-washed and hung out to dry. It will be fine if it is treated well in the washing. It's attractive as well. Just too big for me.

I purchased two of these in different colors. They are both a fine product and as described. As far as a keffiyeh, scarf or shemagh, I would consider these a 'heavyweight' version. Kind of like a fall/winter scarf. It seems to be 100% cotton or close to it, with a heavy woven pattern. These are from the land of Ghandi-ji and are well-made. The comparison would be to the land of Mao, where things may not be of the same quality. Upon receipt, I hand washed both in cold water with a color-safe cold-water detergent, and pinned them up outside to dry. Which they did very quickly, according to the weave, design and purpose. The colors, although they bled a little in the sink, stayed clear and separate once dried.Mine measured 114x114cm, (45 inches) which is a little larger than the normal scarf of 1Mx1M. The size is well suited for this kind of scarf and I appreciate the slightly extra size.Bottom line? No color bleeding when properly cared for, no odor aside from my detergent/wash smell (nice), good size, woven cotton. I will buy more.

Love these things. Used mine all the time in Iraq and Afghanistan. Putnam water on them and weapons it around your head and stay cool for hours. Good for dust storms and keeping your face hidden. For those of you that don't know what this is, it is a mix between an American style bandana and a keffiyeh. It is about a 2'x2' square, thin almost cheesecloth like headwear in whatever color you want or need. I still wear mine in the summer to keep cool and in the winter to keep the wind off my face and snow out of my collar. Only issue that isn't really an issue, just common sense is make sure you soak it with dish soap for a few hours in a bin all by itself. The dye will run almost to the point one would wonder how the design is still visible, regardless of supplier or manufacturer!!!. So don't use a washing machine, it will ruin your other clothes and it's too light to run all by itself so just use the sink or a bucket.

I love these things.

Simple review. A very nice level of quality. Lovely. Thank you

I'll start by saying most of what follows could totally be my fault. The shemagh shipped quickly and was here in no time. When I took it out of the package I immediately was impressed by the feel of the cloth. It was thick and felt well-made, the color was excellent. I got the blue/green combo, thinking it'd be good to wear on Take a Ninja Sailing Day. It was plenty big enough to wrap up as a mask. Then I washed it. I confess to not looking very hard for any washing instructions, but I don't think there were any. I did it the same way I've done my other shemaghs (from different manufacturers) - cold water, normal cycle, then dried on medium. The first thing I noticed was that it felt very different when I pulled it out of the dryer. The outer sections had shrunk considerably and left the larger center piece warped and coarse. It was too small now for anything but a simple scarf, and that only if you folded it into a triangle and only just barely. The pattern woven into the center was a mess. The second thing was that the wonderful color was gone. Here I make my second confession: apparently my washer is getting old and doesn't completely drain and rinse all the bleach from a load. I smelled it when I opened the lid. So, the color leaching away was probably 100% my fault, but I've never known a little bleach to shrink fabric. In any case, one wash and what was otherwise a very nice piece is now ruined. It may have all been me, but other than the bleach I've never had another shemagh shrink and warp like this one. I've ordered another and plan to treat it a little more carefully in the wash. I'll edit this if it comes out better the next time.
