Protect Yourself with Rothco Tactical Desert Scarves

Those who spend their lives traveling the world often travel light. However, one useful item that many of these people will not leave home without is their tactical scarf. Many people might think of a scarf as an extraneous fashion accessory, best left in the domestic world while traveling. However, tactical scarves, like those made by outdoor military clothing supplier Rothco, can serve as a vital fabric to separate the user from the elements. While this product is military-grade and used by many armed service members, it also functions nicely for civilians traveling the world — in both cases protecting the user from harsh sand and the beating sun.

The Rothco Shemagh Tactical Desert Scarf ($14.99) is made of 100 percent cotton material, ideal for cooling users in the heat and keeping them warm in cold conditions. The 42-inch-by-42-inch design comes in 15 color combinations, from coyote brown to olive drab

The Shemagh Tactical Desert Scarf is also available in patterned designs like Gadsden Snake and Skull and Crossbones for no extra cost. Or, for those looking for something a little less heavy-duty, there is the Lightweight Shemagh Tactical Desert Scarf ($11.99).
