What is a Wild Rag?
A wild rag is a cowboy scarf or neckerchief that is worn for warmth, to protect from the sun, as well as dust, and sometimes used for a sling.
Traditional wild rags are made of silk and cotton.
How do you wear a Wild Rag?
We like to wear them traditionally, but the great thing about a wild rag.....you can wear them and tie your knots any way you like!
Are these FR/AR Wild Rags just like my silk wild rag?
If you are accustomed to wearing traditional silk wild rags, please understand that FR fabric has different qualities and requirements making it thicker than silk.
