Top 4 Ways Tie A Shemagh

Top 4 ways to wear and tie a shemagh , The Pirate, The Bedouin, The Bandit and The Buff.

How to use a shemagh, also known as tactical scarf or
The keffiyeh or kufiya (Arabic: كُوفِيَّة‎ kūfiyyah, meaning "from the city of Kufa"[citation needed] (الْكُوفَة); plural كُوفِيَّات kūfiyyāt), also known as a ghutrah (غُترَة), shemagh (شُمَاغ šumāġ), ḥaṭṭah (حَطَّة), mashadah (مَشَدَة), chafiye, dastmal yazdi (Kurdish: دستمال یزدی‎) or cemedanî (Kurdish: جه مه داني‎), is a traditional Arab headdress, or what is sometimes called a habit, worn in the Middle East with origins from the Fertile Crescent (Iraq, the Levant, and Egypt)[citation needed] fashioned from a square scarf, usually made of cotton.[1] It is commonly found in arid regions as it provides protection from sunburn, dust and sand. Toward the end of the 1980s, the keffiyeh became a fashion accessory in the United States and, during the 2000s, it became very popular among teenagers in Tokyo, Japan, where it is often worn with camouflage-style clothing.[2]

As a Palestinian it’s very nice to soo it rise in popularity, so that people don’t just think “terrorist” when they see someone wear it now

Living in the deserts of New Mexico I love these things… use them for carrying stuff, pillow, picnic blanket, scarf, covid mask, and headgear. Ppl often look at me odd though if I forget to take off when in the city lol

Here 5 years later to say thank you for the tutorial. Zero random gaff and just straight instructions. Bless you!

[PiotrStaszewski]

And the most complex wrap (the bedouin) got the farthest shot and the least instructions... :(

[MetalGopnikTV]

Warm in winter. Comfortable in summer. And always walking like a badass. The Bandit combined with a cap an glasses looks tacticool.

Got mine today and I love it. Straight from Palestine! It feels AND smells great!

4:27 “useful for going in incognito” proceeds to look like the shadiest looking character yet. Hahaha I love the video, mate

[rodalmo]

Brilliant. I am a Bedouin and you made it perfect. Just a note shemagh gh is pronounced like r in French to sound accurately. So it is شماغ

[alexstrasza]

thanks I'm gonna wear my shemagh to the store because of the corona

The shemgah is so nice to wrap around your especially if you have headaches or it’s cold it looks very stylish too

[chelseab]

Interesting. I like how you added the historical/present use and then a goofy bit at the end. I'm considering getting one as a sunhat alternative for my yard work. That and as a woman I can use it as fashion too.
Thank you Very Survival!!

I LOVED UR VIDEO BRO!
One man shop!

I have several. I've also used them for about 5 to 6 years now. My wife likes to stay up late and have the lamp on. I wear one every night like the incognito look you did. Just laying over the top of my head but I'll pull the top down to cover my eyes to shield me from the light she has on. Even if she goes to bad early or b4 me I'm still so use to wearing it I still use it. They have become like a safety blanket to me or like a child's woobbie or somthing. Lol . gotta have mine with me or close by at all times.

Just like a pashmina these are super super helpful and versatile. Lightweight easy to pack and can be used in so many different ways. Great video!!! Will be practicing how to tie my own. Thanks!!!

[ananda_miaoyin]

Sweet. I was looking for new tying methods as a mask for CV-19. Mine is a Saudi khaffiyah with egal that I bought in Saudi Arabia when I was a Desert Stormer in the 90´s. I had no idea it would come in handy outside of the arabian deserts!

[mcguzman]

I’m about to start wearing one... always thought they look cool so I guess this is the perfect time to rock them

[Sadiq]

Thank you , I'm frome middle East and no one teaches me 😂

Been wanting something like this since for weeks now, but didn't know what scarves like this were called. Finally found "shemags" tonight and have learned a lot. Was bummed that this link was for an item that doesn't ship to the USA, but then kept browsing & found the same company has items that *do* ship here. SO - this was a very helpful vid for demonstrating this can be used how I want AND for the link to a recommended brand. Big thanks!!

I came here just looking around how to tie a bandana. Now my mind is blown from all this Shemaghination!

Also, these b-roll shots here are some of funniest I've seen in YouTube!
