Jersey vs Medina Silk Hijab: Wholesale Compare Guide (2026)

Factory-direct from Turkey — three jersey tiers vs luxury medina silk. Pricing, drape, slip, and which mix to stock.

Jersey hijabs (€1.90–€4.00/pc at Hicabistan) are stretch-knit, non-slip fabrics built for everyday volume sales. Medina silk hijabs (€3.00/pc) are lighter with an elegant sheen and fluid drape for premium and occasion wear. Most successful boutiques stock jersey for daily demand and medina silk as a mid-premium tier — not one instead of the other.

What is a jersey hijab?

A jersey hijab is a stretch-knit scarf made from polyester-rich knit fabric. It grips gently without pins, resists wrinkles, and suits daily wear in all seasons. Hicabistan manufactures three jersey tiers — Normal Jersey Hijab (entry volume), Premium Jersey Hijab (best-selling mid-tier, 84 colours), and Liquid Jersey Hijab (fluid drape with subtle sheen) — all at MOQ 10 pieces per colour.

What is a medina silk hijab?

Medina silk is a lightweight hijab fabric with a smooth finish and elegant sheen. It drapes more fluidly than jersey and feels lighter on the skin — popular for occasion wear and customers who want a refined everyday option. Hicabistan Luxury Medina Silk Hijab is factory-direct at €3.00 per piece with MOQ 10 pieces per colour.

When to stock jersey hijabs

Stock jersey when your customers want non-slip everyday hijabs, predictable margins on volume, and the widest colour selection. Normal Jersey Hijab (€1.90) suits discount and market sellers; Premium Jersey Hijab (€3.00, 84 colours) is the global best-seller for boutiques; Liquid Jersey Hijab (€4.00) upsells customers who want fluid drape and a subtle premium finish.

When to stock medina silk hijabs

Stock medina silk when you serve customers who prefer lighter, dressier fabrics — wedding guests, Eid collections, or premium everyday wear. At the same €3.00 wholesale price as Premium Jersey Hijab, medina silk adds assortment depth without a new price tier for your customers.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between jersey and medina silk hijab?

Jersey hijab is a stretch-knit fabric that grips without pins and suits everyday volume sales. Medina silk is lighter with a smooth sheen and fluid drape, ideal for premium and occasion styles. Hicabistan jersey wholesale runs €1.90–€4.00/piece; medina silk is €3.00/piece — both at MOQ 10 pieces per colour.

Jersey is better for everyday wear because it is non-slip, fully opaque, and available in up to 84 colours at the Premium tier. Medina silk suits customers who want a lighter, dressier fabric. Most boutiques stock jersey for daily demand and medina silk as a premium add-on.

Normal Jersey Hijab (€1.90/pc) is the entry tier for volume sellers. Premium Jersey Hijab (€3.00/pc, 84 colours) is the best-selling everyday hijab. Liquid Jersey Hijab (€4.00/pc, 46 colours) adds fluid drape and subtle sheen. All three have MOQ 10 pieces per colour.

Both Premium Jersey Hijab and Luxury Medina Silk Hijab are €3.00 per piece at Hicabistan wholesale. Jersey offers stretch and non-slip daily wear; medina silk offers lighter weight and elegant sheen. Boutiques often stock both at the same price point to cover different customer preferences.

The minimum order quantity is 10 pieces per colour for all jersey tiers and medina silk hijab at Hicabistan. There is no global cart minimum — you can mix Normal, Premium, Liquid Jersey and Medina Silk in one order.

Yes. Hicabistan has no global minimum order. You can combine Normal Jersey Hijab (€1.90), Premium Jersey Hijab (€3.00), Liquid Jersey Hijab (€4.00), and Medina Silk Hijab (€3.00) in a single shipment to 50+ countries with door-to-door tracking.

Jersey hijab is less likely to slip because the knit texture grips the undercap. Medina silk is smoother and lighter, so it may need an undercap or pin for active wear. For slip-free daily wear, Premium or Liquid Jersey Hijab is the safer wholesale choice.

For a new boutique: 50–60% Premium or Normal Jersey Hijab in core colours, 15–20% Liquid Jersey Hijab in fashion tones, and 25–30% Medina Silk Hijab for premium and occasion customers. Adjust based on your local climate and customer profile.
