A typical keffiyeh, nothing new. Simple, classic, does its job. Comfortable, made of thin, nice material, does not irritate the skin.
Mil-Tec Shemagh Protective Scarf - White/Black
The shemagh-style model in White/Black is made of woven cotton, which promotes good ventilation and ensures comfortable use even over extended periods. It works well in summer as sun protection, and when folded, it can serve as an additional layer in cooler conditions. Fringes along the edges reduce the risk of fraying.
Also known as a keffiyeh or shemagh, the arafat scarf is a traditional Arab scarf – a square piece of fabric, usually cotton, that can be folded and wrapped around the head in various ways.
Application possibilities
The scarf is useful in many situations – for protecting the head and shoulders from intense sun, as face coverage in harsh weather conditions, and as an insulating layer against the cold. Thanks to its lightweight construction and large size, it easily adapts to different uses.

- woven cotton construction

This scarf is for my wife. I have the same pattern, only my model doesn't have tassels on the corners. The colours are more vivid than in the photo. The material is very pleasant to the touch for a keffiyeh. The large size makes it very versatile. I highly recommend it.
-
The material is pleasant to the touch and breathable. It works perfectly as a cover against the sun, wind and dust, and it looks really good at the same time. I am very satisfied.
-
Great shemagh. The material is nice to the touch and doesn't cause irritation on the neck. Its size is perfect in winter as a scarf substitute, and the colour is elegantly subdued. I would definitely choose it again.
-
I use this arafatka regularly and I have no complaints. At first, the material felt a bit artificial, but after a few washes it became normal. I recommend it.
-
Arafatka, like any other, is useful in many situations thanks to its versatility. The material is solid and has already served me well. If you’re considering buying, I think the quality matches the price, I recommend it!
-
Very good arafatka made from high-quality material, it’s really large, allowing protection from sun or wind. Excellent value for money, definitely recommend.

Unfortunately, this arafatka is rather poor quality: mine had a lot of loose threads, uneven stitching, irregular weaves and overall appears cheap. However, it's 100% cotton, which makes it good as a mat for a sleeping pad or for lying on, especially on bare skin. Due to the low price and average workmanship, I decided to use it mainly outdoors to see if I’ll even like having an arafatka. That’s its advantage: it can be used for different purposes, so it gains value. I considered returning it, but given the cost and not wanting to invest in a more expensive original arafatka, I decided to keep it and give it a try. Now it works very well as a blanket on a polyester mat. If you're looking for a thick and solid arafatka like they used to make, this is not it, but all in all I'm happy with the purchase.

This is yet another scarf in my collection – it’s soft to the touch, and the quality is really high. Compared to some of the scarves I own, this one is a bit more loosely woven in the middle section, which makes it more delicate and pleasant. The Foliage colour looks more saturated in the photo than in reality – in terms of shade and workmanship, it’s the same as my Brandit model in Petrol/Khaki (in that photo, the colour is a better match to reality). I was a bit disappointed because I expected a different shade, and now I have two identical scarves. Still, the quality is high enough that I didn’t take off any points in my rating. I recommend both! In general, I won’t go on about the advantages of shemaghs – I’ll just say that they’re a very versatile solution for all weather.
-
Classic product made from solid material. Good for camouflage, wind protection, can be used as a filter or as a mat for laying out things. I always keep one in my bag for the shooting range – it's always useful.
-
Mil-Tec scarf is a great product – this is my next purchase. The keffiyeh is made of 100% cotton, large, solid and inexpensive. I recommend both the product and the Militaria shop – express delivery.
-
I don't know what else can be added with so many reviews... For me, it's just another colour variant. The olive colour fits in perfectly with the surroundings. This is a thin, summer version. I recommend it!
-
This is another scarf I’ve added to my collection – I’m starting to get quite fond of them! I really like shemaghs. This one is light and thin, so it’s perfect for summer. I particularly liked the colour. I recommend it!
-
Good scarf at an affordable price. I use it as protection from wind and dust – it works great on the bike and in the mountains. It's made from a light but durable material, easy to tie. Black matches everything. For this price, it's definitely worth having.
-
Nice keffiyeh, good material, provides warmth – it did well in colder days. Large size, you can use it in many ways. I recommend it.
