How to Choose the Right Tallit Size
The right fit
A tallit that feels right.
Choose by the way you wear it, the coverage you enjoy, and the finished measurements of your chosen design.
Light coverage
Over the shoulders
A scarf-size tallit rests over the shoulders for a lighter, narrower fit.
Compare the dimensions of the specific design before choosing.
Fuller coverage
Around the body
A larger tallit provides more coverage. The way it hangs also depends on whether you wear it over your head.
Your preferred length matters as much as your height.
Size numbers are not inches.
For our semi-handwoven wool tallitot, sizes such as 50 and 60 are size designations. Check the product’s Size Guide for its finished dimensions.
Three simple steps
Compare a tallit you own
Lay it flat and measure its width and length.
Decide how it should hang
Think about head coverage and where you want the tallit to fall.
Confirm your chosen design
Check the finished measurements before placing your order.
