The shemagh, or keffiyeh, a Middle-Eastern head wrap, is worn to protect the eyes, mouth, nose and neck from desert conditions. It is also associated with the British military, particularly the SAS. It has become fashionable in the west in the last couple of years, and some have objected to young Americans wearing them.
For the soldier, the shemagh has become a valuable piece of their equipment in desert warfare. It provides protection against the sand, keeps the head area cool in the hot sun, and warm in the cold night. It can also double as a carrying pouch, make-shift bandage, or a sling amongst many other uses!
