tallit gadol - how to keep a talis from sliding from one's shoulders


If someone wears a talis and likes to keep it bunched up on his shoulders rather than hanging down his sides, and also plans to sometimes have it over his head and sometimes not, what's a good way for him to prevent its falling off his shoulders?



Answer



For shoulders, it helps to wear a jacket with pads.



To keep my talis from falling down when covering my head- when I first wrap myself, I give my head a lot of slack in the talis, so that it might cover half my face. Then I put the shoulders on. When I subsequently cover my head, the extra slack stays in back by my neck so that it doesn't pull on the shoulders.


(If you want to spend money, there are other options.)
