Shemagh Scarf Olive
The scarf is fantastic for many things, I originally brought it for winter field training but found out it's great for cam & con, first aid and training. It is a great all round item with so many perks. I am sure I will find more uses for this scarf.
Pros: Role Play Training, Training, First Aid, Warmth, Cam & Con
Cons: none

101 uses and beyond
The shemagh has so many uses that it would be impossible to list them all. Its main use is to cover the exposed face and neck in cold temperatures and provide protection from wind. Conversely it can also be used in hot temperatures to cool the face and neck, after being soaked in water. Its other uses survival uses are extensive, it can be used as a bandage, sling, water filter (in extreme circumstances), towel, short rope, carrying pouch - The list is endless and possibilities are left to the imagination.
New shemaghs are prone to the dye bleeding, especially the olive ones. This is by no means a defect. To avoid the dye getting on your skin and clothing, I recommend filling a bucket of water and leaving your shemagh in there for 30 minutes. You'll see the dye change the colour of the water. Repeat this step until the water is clear. Don't worry, your shemagh will not lose its colour.
A piece of kit I would never be without. A use in every climate and circumstance.
Pros: Great value, Endless uses
Cons: Dye can bleed when new
Would recommend: Yes
