I did't see the star count for this product, but none of them should not be less than 5 stars with regard to the product. This is a real deal, made in Pakistan Shemagh. Its the same kind the bad guys wear, its the same kind the good guys wear. If someone gets this and doesnt like it, then they didn't want a Shemagh. The most important thing is to HAND wash this extensively prior to wearing it. Like most authentic shemaghs, it has a ton of dye left in it. I get mine as clean and rinsed as possible, and then hit it with a pot of boiling water. Once you do that, its a really nice Shemagh. If that too much trouble, go and get one of those cutesy little hipster ones at GAP or Old Navy. If you want a real Shemagh, drop some coin on this one or anything like it. I think they are great for keeping cool, using as a pad for hotspots on the fly, stopping rattling, and keeping dust outta the mouth and nose (smoke too). It actually filters out the really strong scent of charred human flesh and that is always a plus. For really bad smell situations, I add just a blip of tincture benzoin from my medical pack near the mouth/nose area and that works amazingly well. You could sit and enjoy the moment  surrounded by charred flesh and not really have it effect your olfactory lobe. Get a couple. I usually pack 2. Seems to work out. Thanks
