>Is there a permanent cure for STS -- that is, Sliding Talis Syndrome?
I suffer from the same syndrome when wearing a kittle as the two smooth fabrics slide easily against each other. S notes there are "no slip" options -- some do report success (at a recent STS anonymous meeting, one member proclaimed that he was cured.)
There are some who try different ways of wearing/folding their talis -- this has offered relief to some - but is not yet approved by the FDA. (The Frum Dress Arbitrators)
Many people have talis clips bought by a well meaning relative who ran out of gift ideas, most people I see have both clips on one side of their talis so as not to get in the way.
I remember back in the 1970's when leisure suits were in vogue -- anyone wearing a leisure suit was assigned a chevrusah who sat behind him and picked his talis off of the floor at 2 minute intervals. Seriously - the fabric of the garment worn under the talis as well as the way it is worn.
By the way, if one's tallith falls off accidentally, the bracha must be recited again.
