Making of Abu Dis Hirbawi Kufiya
We know that all of you were very excited about the Hirbawi Al Quds kufiya, so we were about to make some more. And then this beautiful mistake happened. One of our Hirbawi superstars picked and fed the wrong yarn to the machine, and this gorgeous creation started to appear in the loom. Just when we were about to scrap it, we decided against it.
The name Abu Dis, however, is not accidental. Abu Dis is a Palestinian village in Jerusalem Governorate bordering Jerusalem (Al Quds in Arabic). Since there is such a close connection design-wise and considering the intention was to create Al Quds, we named this extraordinary new accident after a locality not far from Jerusalem.
Abu Dis is surrounded by deep valleys and is located on an ancient site. Ruins of buildings were found there, along with grape presses, caves, and cisterns to store rainwater.

But as we refuse all kinds of political attempts to substitute Al Quds (Jerusalem) with the city of Abu Dis, we will not accept it on ourselves to dub this Kufiya with the name Alquds. Instead, we call it Abu Dis. Named after an ancient Palestinian city located close to the city of Jerusalem. It is charming and beautiful, but clearly and in plain sight, Abu Dis is not our Alquds!
Without further ado we present you Hirbawi Abu Dis!

Love it!
Absolutely beautiful, lightweight, not too heavy. It’s very intricate and a head-turner for sure!

Fantastic!
Loved the kufiya; wore it on a group ride the day after it arrived. I’m glad I could support the Palestinian cause in my own small way.

Gorgeous craftsmanship for a righteous cause
I was not prepared for how deeply I would I would love and appreciate my Hirbawi inverted kufiya; it’s beautiful detail in person, it’s soft and delicate texture, truly blew me away. I was parted with my beloved Hirbawi ~8 months back, and since had to resort to a Jordan-based Palestinian kufiya due to Hirbawi’s limited production and availability but Hirbawi is so superior and I will happily buy another at my earliest opportunity!

The quality is unmatched
I have others, but none with the quality of Hirbawi. The weight, softness and vibrance is by far the Best!! It took a long time to finally catch them in stock, I could not be more happy with my purchase.

Beautiful to see and to feel
The kufiya really is a treasure. It's beautiful, stylish, and I was unprepared for how soft the cotton is. Really, a magnificent work of art and absolutely worth the price.
