Jewish Clothing

WHAT IS JEWISH CLOTHING?

An old saying declares, “The clothes make the man.” The style, color and cut of the garments you wear say a lot about you – your taste, personality, employment and even your life style. Jewish clothing takes that one step further. It reflects who you are – your identity, your loyalties and where you belong.

What is Jewish clothing? It may be specific Jewish garments such as the man’s white kittel or women’s head coverings. For others, Jewish clothing is Hebrew words boldly printed on the front of regular garments. Today’s Jewish clothing is closely related to an expression of identity with the State of Israel – its army, tourist sites and culture. This is expressed in caps, T-Shirts or even aprons that proudly display Jewish inspired pictures or symbols.

Whichever Jewish clothing you are looking for, scroll through our web site and you will find it there.

A year-round favorite are our Jewish printed T-Shirts, making a clear statement of commitment to Jewish identity. Note the variety of colors and choice of sizes.

Wear your heart on your head with our Israeli style caps. In a bright array of colors, they sport emblems and the names of Zahal’s leading army brigades. In addition to the military, you will find caps with a bright “Israel” or “Jerusalem” or Israeli flag print. Others carry the traditional Chai good luck symbol. Our prize goes to the Israel-US cap with a bright picture linking the two flags.

Last and sweetest are the first Jewish clothing a child wears – gorgeous baby onesies. They carry amusing and entertaining texts in Hebrew and English. They are colorful and creative with that unique flavor of Jewish humor. Onesies make delightful gifts that will give endless pleasure. You can be sure that a baby wearing an aJudaica onesie will always be the center of attraction.

THE PURPOSE OF JEWISH CLOTHING

The garments of the Priest in the Mishkan and later in the Temple are termed as being for kavod and for tifferet – for honor and glory. This carries a powerful message. Wearing Jewish clothing is a privilege and a responsibility. Our clothing speaks of the honor and glory to be a Jew and our pride to display our Jewish identity and loyalty. Ajudaica’s selection of Jewish clothing seeks to strengthen these feelings.
