I have been using this product for about a year and a half. At first, the material was quite rough and unpleasant to the touch, but after a dozen or so washes it became softer. The colours also improved – initially the fabric was almost completely black, but after a while it faded a bit and the pattern became more visible. Overall, the product is fine, although for a similar price Miltec offers better quality.
Sling type arafat woven from 100% cotton, characterized by good thermal insulation, hygroscopicity and resistance to damage. The properties of the fabric mean that it can be used in many ways in different weather conditions. The characteristic tassels on the edges of the sling protect the fabric from ripping.
An arafat, also known as a kefija or shemagh, is a traditional Arab headdress - a square piece of fabric, usually cotton, that can be folded and wrapped around the head in various ways.

An extremely practical thing. It works well both as a scarf and as a headwear. At the same time, it's much more comfortable to wear on your head than those synthetic panamas or fishing hats – cotton is cotton. And it looks stylish too. Although in the city you probably wouldn’t wear it – it looks a bit too unusual.

The shemagh is very well made, it looks much better in real life than in the photos. It is comfortable to wear, offers many possibilities for use and tying. I highly recommend it.

The shemagh is well made and very versatile. It can be used around the neck, on the head, or for protection against dust and wind. The material is light enough to be comfortable to wear but also offers decent protection. The olive-black pattern looks good and matches tactical gear or outdoor clothing. Worth buying.

At this price, it's hard to find a better choice. The jacket is practical and comfortable, and performs excellently during outdoor activities. It has been washed many times and still retains its colours and the quality of the material. I definitely recommend it!

I do not recommend this product. After the first wash, the fabric became stained and the whole thing turned blue. Initially it seemed promising, new it looked very nice. I also bought a red one from the same collection, but I haven't used it yet, although I am worried about the same problem. I wanted to make a complaint, but in this shop I have to pay 12 PLN for the return postage, so with the price of the scarf being 25 PLN, it is not really worth it.

I have bought two more scarves from this site, this is the third one. It can be used in multiple ways, effective in any season, pleasant on the skin, excellent value for money. I recommend it. Thank you MILITARY.EU!

Great product. I highly recommend it. The fabric is pleasant to the touch. It provides protection against wind and, in summer, also against the sun. You can wear and tie it in various ways. I've already bought another colour.

This is a must-have for every traveller. The scarf has countless uses – from a regular scarf to an improvised bag for things. In terms of quality, it’s not top of the range, but at this price you can’t expect miracles.
-
Very nice shemagh in an olive shade of green. It works perfectly as a finishing touch to an outfit for outings to the forest (e.g. for airsoft). The material is similar to other scarves I own. A positive rating.
-
The keffiyeh is very well made; it looks much better in person than in the pictures. It is comfortable to wear, offers many possibilities for use and tying. I definitely recommend it.
-
The shemagh is a real classic – no need for a lengthy description. The quality is fully satisfactory, it does its job and is an interesting accessory. I recommend it.
-
Very elegant shemagh. The material is soft, pleasant to the touch and lays well. It effectively protects against both cold and heat, and also works well for camouflage.

It’s a simple product with many functions, definitely worth having. It can serve as a scarf, bandana, handbag, sling, bandage, and much more. And it costs practically nothing :)
