Hmmm. I remember buying some real Arab scarves (faded red and white* instead of black) when I went to Egypt a long time ago. But, I wear them traditional style along with the head ring to secure the scarf. I always wanted to look like an oil sheik like say, for Halloween.
But as a fashion statement? I'll pass.
Pretty ironic for rappers to wear them considering many Arabs/Turks/Kurds can't stand their music.
*Actually, my uncle said I do have a couple of black and white, not just red.
Thew only time I actually wore one was back in Egypt while touring the Pyramids of Giza. They were being sold as souvenirs ($5 apiece) and the vendor helped me put it on the proper way. He even said, "You make nice Egyptian".Last edited by Jun aka Pekto; September 1st, 2008 at 02:53 PM.

siguro mawawala din yang fad na yan. People sometimes just need to be "in-fashion" even if it is not even practical.

bought loads of those scarves but I only use them outdoors (related to work and not for porma) and when I go to Mindanao. they can actually keep you pretty cool underneath. note: I am not Muslim.

'Shemag' yata ang tawag dyan... we use that as protection against BBs for our necks and ears during airsoft games... towel na rin kapag pinapawisan ng todo, hehehe. compared to using heavy neck protection, the shemag is quite comfortable when running furiously... no wonder the jihadists are using these as part of their 'uniform'Last edited by ThePatriarch; September 1st, 2008 at 06:21 PM.
Choice I would have made as well.:nod:
2024 Innova Zenix 2.0 V CVT (non-HEV) vs Innova...
