Use the Tzitis Wizard at Eichlers.com!


Selecting the right tzitizis can sometimes be a challenging task. There are all kinds of specifications you must consider before you select the right talit or tzitzis for you. The tzitis is incredibly important because it reminds the wearer of their obligations to G-d and their fellows. The mitzvah of Tzitizis requires fringes to be tied at four corners of every garment, with the fringes have a certain number of knots. Some people prefer to tie the knots themselves, while others opt for the pre-tied and ready-to-wear tzitis.

If you’re concerned about buying the right Tzitis, Eichler’s has streamlined the shopping process for you.  The Tzitis Wizard at the Eichler’s online store takes all the guesswork out the selection process and never before has getting the right Tzitis been so easy.

First you select whether you need children or adult sizes, then you select what lineage you come from, next you select whether you’d like a cotton tzitis, or wool, or other fabric. After that you select your size which is listed by height. Then you choose the style, knotting, and strings.
So build the perfect Tzitis today with the Eichlers Tzitis Wizard.
