TAD Shemagh Topo Skull

The shemagh’s history dates back thousands of years beginning with the first settlements of the Fertile Crescent and surrounding desert environments of the Middle East. It has owned many names through the ages but has always served the same purpose: to protect the wearer year-round from harsh environmental conditions by keeping sun, snow, wind, sand and dust out of the wearer’s eyes, face and neck.

Multi-Purpose

The shemagh is a multi-purpose garment that can be worn as a head wrap or scarf to either retain heat in cold weather or absorb sweat and shield the neck during hot, sunny conditions. It can function as a rope, a towel, a pouch for carrying equipment, an arm sling, or a small sunshade. Shemaghs quickly and easily transforms to meet the task at hand.

Ethically Handcrafted

The Triple Aught Design Shemaghs are ethically made using centuries-old techniques in India by Open Hand. The nature of old word loomed textiles results in irregularities that make each shemagh as unique as the individual making it and the individual wearing it. Imperfections are normal and proud testaments of a uniquely handcrafted product.
