Many of those scarfs can be worn in the "Jewish way" (not covering neck and below chin.

They are absolutely GORGEOUS!!

Lots of them really could be worn "Jewishly".

Here's even a page with Jewishly only scarfs, but very formal.

(And they come in tons of colors, you can select the exact color combination you desire).

Wow! These are exactly what I've been trying to find for a long time! My old snoods look dated; I look goofy in turbans -- even around the house; and I look even worse in pre-tied tichels. I need kind of a combination, which is what these seem to be.

Has anyone ordered yet?

Really tempted to buy this one:

Wonder if it's okay to give this site some Jewish business...

I notice that shipping is quite expensive, though -- they're coming from Egypt.

Hmmm . . . if they offer customers in EY a special deal for "shipping via tunnel with Gaza pickup," we'll know this is a bad idea!

That one immediately caught my eye as well. It looks like most of their stock consists of headcovers with separate scarves, so they would work fine. I'm really blown away by the creativity and beauty of almost everything on that site.

I love it! do you think we are allowed to patronize them? is its halachicly an issue at all...cuz I would totally start up this new trend!!

I have wondered in the past about patronizing muslim businesses. wasn't it once a topic here? they have some excellent clothing sites that cater to muslim women, as well as this fabulous headgear site. I mean, I can totally see chassidisher ladies wearing these gorgeous coverings (minus the neck veils, as someone mentioned).

hey, maybe we could strike a deal with the company. we could say, we labored in egypt and built pisom and raamses, so how about a discount?

they really are super pretty, and im actually waiting for dh to get home to ask him if I can buy some (aesthetically and halachically speaking)

but im wondering, are they comfortable for tichel wearers ????(meaning I have a bun, im not shaved) cuz they dont look like they have space for hair in there.
