Chai is written with two Hebrew letters, ח and י. Their numerical value is 18, a number associated with life in Jewish tradition. Wearing it on your tallit keeps this symbol with you in prayer, on Shabbat, at a Bar Mitzvah or at a wedding.
How do I build my tallit?
- Choose the color.
- Keep the Chai embroidery on the back, or choose another symbol.
- Select the size: 55, 60 or 70.
- Choose white or tekhelet tzitzit.
- To add a name, tick the personalization option on the product page (+ ₪80), then enter the name to embroider, its position (back, front corner or both) and its color.
Chai, Hai or Haï: what is the difference?
There is none: these are different ways of writing the same Hebrew word, חי, in Latin letters.
What size should I choose?
Size 55 suits a Bar Mitzvah teenager, size 60 an adult from 1.65 m to 1.80 m, and size 70 an adult over 1.80 m.
Can I see the tallit before buying?
Yes, in our stores in Netanya and Tel Aviv.
