Many of the links listed below have "restrictions" on who can purchase them (military/ police/ government agency only). I don't know why, and I think it's ridiculous. Still, who am I to tell someone how to run their business? Anyway, "Out In Style" carries many of these exact same "restricted" items - only without the restriction. So, if you are a civilian - or you just don't like the idea of the government keeping "the good stuff" to themselves, try Out In Style.

HEADGEAR
SHEMAGH Traditional Desert Headdress The classic Shemagh has been worn for centuries by people of the deserts who needed everyday protection from blowing sand and glaring, burning sun light. Made of soft 100% cotton, these headwraps are ideal for keeping sun, wind, and sand out of eyes and face. The U.S. Armed Forces, coalition partners and our customers in the First Gulf War and now in OEF- Afghanistan, and OIF- Iraq, have found them a necessity for protection from the misery of the desert. Not only is it a traditional headdress, but it is a comfy sweat mop, dust wiper, field towel and filter when needed. It may be unusual, but it works! Instructions for tying come with each Shemagh.
