Review on 🧣 Premium Military Shemagh Arab Tactical Desert Keffiyeh: Versatile Thickened Scarf Wrap for Women and Men – 43"x43 by Ryan Brunson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not bad for the price, but choose your colors carefully.

I have a Blackhawk Shemagh that I have used for years training in the Nevada desert. Shemagh is an excellent choice for protection against the conditions of such an environment. This year my youngest asked to make the workout a family trip for a graduation present (he wants to go to Vegas) so I had to get a few more Shemaghs. I picked them simply because of the price and got almost what I expected. It's not as nice as my Blackhawk, thinner and not as thick or tight. The looseness of the weave tends to sag and be a little annoying, but it's not a deal breaker. They are a good size, fairly square and exactly as described. I had two different colors, sand and coyote, and they behaved completely differently when I first soaked them to wash off the excess color. The sand came out of the tub, almost the same color as before, but not coyote. It almost does not differ from the original color, becoming yellow with a beige tint. It has also not turned out to be uniform in color as it has streaks of the original colour. Bottom line, they'll probably only be used once or twice, so I wasn't concerned about getting a "famous brand". I don't think it's a bad buy, just not as good as my Blackhawk. I got the product I paid for and I'm happy with the price. If you want an honest product at a fair price, they're definitely for you. If you want a higher quality product and are willing to pay more, there is a better choice.

Pros
  • 100% cotton
Cons
  • Crumpled backpack
