Can you get them in gay pride rainbow?

The army calls them Shemaghs which is their Urdu name iirc (just to be confusing, but also accurate as many are made in Pakistan)

That's what I thought they were called as well.

It might be better to just point?

perhaps...

So was it that you were originally planning on passing them a note, that the spelling mattered?

I think you'll be fine walking up to the market stall and saying I'll have 40 of those black and white scarves please. That should work nicely

With a nice haram trim, please.

Anything other than black and white or red and white don't sound kosher to me

Purple and white is kosher :cool:

They used to be called Yassir scarves up here.

Ok, the obvious question.....why do you need 40? Have you got a cold giraffe?
