now i take that as more of a compliment than lookin like chuck norris. "rescue me" is a good show
i hate it when the heat does that to my hair...... looks so crappy

lol... My buddy from zee states told me about kids who wear band patches, and other weird shit like that on their "kit". Or just try to look like tactical emos...

Man... new American airsofters are far cry from Canadian

Almost three years later, still no proper way.

Wow.

I mean... look at these guys...

That's pretty tight if we compare it to the « known way » which is NOT tight around the head.

I find it funny how people continue to post, even though the first instructions work just fine =P

I wear my Shemagh in a more rebelious way

I will not conform to the face wrapping way just yet..

I'm considering wearing this shemagh with a pair of MARPAT BDUs for my games.

Pretty much the same except instead of wrapping around your mouth you do the forehead.

Whoa, if I start doing that people will mistake me for Ralph Fiennes. Nice find!

I have 3 shemags and every time I try to use one at a game, I can't stand it and ditch it in the car.

Too hot, too bulky, get in the way, fog my glasses, fall appart in the branches, mess with my gear.

I wonder how people manage to play with one.

Flippy · April 30th, 2011, 07:12

My one is 'net'-like, but will try out morning how hot...

FACE · April 30th, 2011, 07:25

The "net" like ones aren't too bad. It's the "real" shemag's that get really hot if worn to cover your face. The way you want to wear it should be fine. Although FOX is right, it might get caught in the branches or your gear.
