Palestine used to make thousands of these. It became a symbol of solidarity with the Palestinian people so it gained popularity across the world. They became so popular China began to mass produce them and the Palestinian companies crumbled.
It does not mean anything religious, Jews, Christians and others wear them aswell. Your keffiyeh should be 40 or more inches to a side, with 48 being proper.
Order your keffiyehs from Palestine. Everybody wins.
@RusPrideAK sweet, i love when people fight for what they believe in, for a better life. We need actual freedom fighters in America, change this country.

This is clothing morons,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,it is for humans,,,,,,,,,,,,,not part of any bullshit,,,,,,,,
plain old f#%$n Humans,,,,ever heard of that,,,,,,,,,,,,no cause , no anything
@respecttheart hey im not trying to take anything literally to any point. even the U.S. military wears these when they are in the deserts of the middle east.
Don't be so ignorant. It's to keep the cold and sand out, or to be used to preserve body heat. At least to the US and it's non Muslim wearers. You think we care what it means?
@respecttheart the shemagh doesn't actually represent anything religious. its pretty much the equivlent to the cowboy hat for Americans or the beret for the French, its just unique to that area.also, like the examples, it dosnt mean anything unless the user gives it meaning.
@TeaBag1337 if you have one nearby/in your area, check the surplus store, they get imported ones there all the time, i got a tan/black, od/black, solid tan, and red/white from mine, 9-10 dollars a piece here
@TeaBag1337 hey sorry it may be a little late, but what i do to buy things online is buy amazon gift cards in stores with cash, then just use the gift card like a credit card. and once its out u can refill it or get a new one. and you can buy these on amazon. good luck!
@kevintolly So i could feel it but it doesn't sting? I just ordered an OD one and a boonie hat for on top of it for airsoft....my teammate got his tooth shot out today and i'm freaking out haha
