Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tallit used for?

A tallit is a prayer shawl with tzitzit, knotted fringes, on its four corners. Jewish men traditionally wear it during morning prayers, following the commandment in Numbers 15:38 to put fringes on the corners of garments. Read our guide on how to wear a tallit properly.

Should I choose a wool or an acrylic tallit?

The Israel Store offers both. The wool tallitot are made from 100% wool in two color combinations. The acrylic tallitot come in white and light blue designs, including one with blue stripes.

What else do I need for prayer?

Many people pair a tallit with a kippah. See our kippah and yarmulke collection and the full Judaica collection.
