Looking for opinions on best lightweight “no-slip” Tallis.
I find that the various tallis companies come out with a new tallis fabric weave every few years and market it as “lighter” or “softer” etc. etc.
Anyone find that their tallis really stays put? (and one that lasts would be nice as well).January 25, 2022 8:57 pm at 8:57 pm #2054675ujmParticipantJust add a little glue to any fabric Talis.
Much more effective.

January 26, 2022 12:47 pm at 12:47 pm #2054890GadolhadorahParticipantThe so-called “Kemo” tallis is really tightly woven lightweight wool (not sure if Egyptian or North African) but from what I’ve heard, actually stays on like velcro. Some order a size larger to avoid having any tallis slip off…

It’s been working the good ole fashioned way for thousands of years. No need to reinvent the wheel.
January 26, 2022 2:06 pm at 2:06 pm #2055049ChiamLeibParticipantAgree with @Godolhoadorah I have a “Kemo Turkish” as my Shabbos Tallis and its really great. It costs a little more but is worth the buy.

well that’s a pretty odd comment.
you dont see the talis fall off because the guys are constantly readjusting it. Hence the question. And if you say you haven’t seen that either then so what? How many guys would notice something like that.January 26, 2022 3:39 pm at 3:39 pm #2055086ujmParticipant“How many guys would notice something like that.”
Wearing a Talis 7 days a week, 354 days a (Jewish) year, you’d surely notice it on yourself, if not on the dozens of other Talis-donning men (and Yekkishe/Sefardishe bochorim) you’re with every single morning.

January 26, 2022 4:27 pm at 4:27 pm #2055102RedlegParticipant“…not sure if Egyptian or North African”. Um, Egypt is in North Africa.

“Wearing a Talis 7 days a week, 354 days a (Jewish) year, you’d surely notice it on yourself”
Try wearing a real tallis instead of the little Reform scarf thingy, and you’ll see it does slip off the shoulders a lot.

Ask most Egyptians if they are a “North African” country and you will get a very vigorous pushback locating themselves in the “Middle East”. Indeed, they would be more comfortable if you just said they lived in a suburb of Eilat versus having any real connection with most of the African continent.January 26, 2022 5:55 pm at 5:55 pm #2055151GadolhadorahParticipantAlso, perhaps check with anyone you know in the Shuvu cult and find out what brand of Tallis their now imprisoned leader wore 24×7 while being chased across 4 continents by Israeli prosecutors. I don’t think I ever saw his tallis slip off.
