Scarves in Bogota

Just wondering if anybody else has noticed a ton of the younger kids or young adults wearing black and white patterned scarves that are essentially shemagh or keffiyeh-- scarves/headwear most famously worn by yassir arafat. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keffiyeh. I was bored and started browsing this and I guess there is some huge debate in the US on whether these products should be pulled from stores..go figure haha. Just curious though..
