I bought several of the trendy Plaid scarf's also known as Shemagh's . They are essentially what you see many middle eastern people wearing around their head's faces and necks . As a former operator over in the sand box i can testify to the extraordinary usefullness of these items . I've owned several and bought many over the years . These i'd say fall somewhere in the middle . Quality is fair , i've seen better , i've seen worse . Material is about average , kinda thin and light but you may feel you'd like it to be just a bit thicker / heavier in colder climates . However , the sizing on this particular line is right on par with what i prefer and thats large , they are some what larger than the norm and that's a serious bonus in my book . Also if your looking to be stylish and co-ordinated then you'll appreciate that they offer them in like 123 colors it seemed like . Not litterally but there were quite a few to choose from .
