Product Details

Our Um Suleiman Kufiya is more than just a fashion statement. The colors of the black and red beetle (Um Suleiman) elegantly displayed on this keffiyeh are a reminder that beauty can be found in the smallest of creatures and a call to protect them. Inspired by Fairuz's enchanting song, “Tic Tic Um Suleiman,” this shemagh embodies the spirit of harmony between nature and art. Made in Palestine with pride, it represents our commitment to honouring the beauty of our environment and the rich cultural heritage of Palestine.

The Keffiyeh (pronounced “Kufiya” in Palestine) continues to hold deep and symbolic value, and serves as an icon of resistance, struggle and freedom for the Palestinian people. 

The Keffiyeh is handmade using a classic cross-stitching technique honed over generations. The Keffiyeh is traditionally woven on two layers, the “base”, and the “pattern” or “flower” ( وردة) in Arabic. Beyond its unmatched quality, the Keffiyeh maintains its original functionality:

  • Keeping you cool in hot climates under direct sunlight.
  • Effective shielding against dust and fast-blowing winds.
  • Excellent moisture-wicking properties, directing sweat and moisture away from the skin.

The Keffiyeh now comes in a variety of colours and patterns that are evolving alongside Palestinian culture. Today, a wide selection of designs are available, based on historic landmarks, and elements of Palestinian culture, as well as the traditional staple Keffiyeh patterns that are known and loved around the world.
