My first guess is that Munkatch and Chabad are the same

Munkatch describes the style of the black stripes on the tallis.

IIRC aside from a variation of the black stripe pattern, these are much more lightweight.

In fact, I recently bought a new Tallis marketed as “lightweight” with the popular waffle pattern and my current Munkatch Tallis was 10% lighter than the new one!

No clue. That’s a better question for the store that sells them.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.
