Eyyy we must have gotten in on the same batch. Mine came on Friday (same color too)
I had a hard time deciding between the red and the black, but they had just sold out of the black ones when I finally got my entrance ticket, so that made the decision easier 😂. I'll just have to wait in line again to get the black one.
I secretly kind of wanted the red one more, though, because it's the color Hamas wears.
ordered
Thanks for that link, was able to get a Palestinian flag one! ❤️🇵🇸❤️🩹
I ordered one on Etsy around October and it never came. Let’s just say I have not called customer service to complain about never receiving it. I hope they’re ok but I’m pretty sure they’re not. 😞
There had better be some really extreme circumstances to justify a delay this long!
In case you couldn’t read into my subtlety, I’m 90% sure they were genocided by the IOF.
Account was called Pali4Life and they closed their shop long ago. RIP.
Hirbawi is fantastic, I bought mine in the same pattern ages ago, and it comes with me on every desert camping trip I take (back when I wasn't too lazy to do that)
shit they're all out, wonder when they'll restock
This has prompted me to check the Australian supplier of Hirbawi and order 3. I'd been checking every few weeks.
Quite a few years ago (before there was clear distributor in Australia) I ordered one from an international supplier of good reputation. It never arrived. I assumed it was the difficulties of international mail or some bastard in customs binning it. Though had a Palestinian scammed me, no drama they need that money more than me.
That was my main reason for buying it, just to help support the local economy
Yeah definitely the main thing. Though I would like these ones to arrive.
Got the classic black and white, red and white, and a rainbow because that's neat.
You might find that there's a Friends of Palestine branch (or similar) in your city. Often they have outlets selling kufiyah if you don't want to risk it on international shipping again.
Thank you kindly for the advice. I think https://kufiyas.org.au/ imports them and then sends them out, so I should be okay. This was quite a few years ago when I had that problem.
their website is out of stock? I CAN'T IMAGINE WHY.
Check again, I was just able to place an order literally rn
is this the site? https://kufiya.org/shop/
everything says notify me, not add to cart
I was late for the restock last time so I just bought a knockoff at a protest
Happy for you tho
Update: I was being a dumbass and not looking at the US store before so I was able to get an order in
Lovely! Glad it worked out for you.
How and when do you wear these? Also what's the difference between a kufiya and a keffiyeh?
I'm looking into the first part. As for the second, I believe it's down to personal preference on spelling.
Yeah I have several hirbawi kufiyas! They're very good and cozy. I like how they're kinda all season too. They protect your head from sun in summer and they're a good scarf in winter. They're also gorgeous!
Mine also arrived this week. Excited to wear it once cooler weather hits, it makes a great scarf.
Nice! Hopefully this means mine will arrive soon, before Saturday optimistically.
