How Jubbas Connect Fathers, Sons and Grandfathers Across Generations

There’s something about a jubba that doesn’t change. You see it in old family photos, Friday prayers, Eid mornings, or when you open your dad’s wardrobe and find that one thobe he always wears for special occasions. It’s not just a piece of clothing. It becomes part of the rhythm of family life.

At Thobez, we’ve seen how men of all ages wear jubbas in their own way. Some keep it simple. Some like a bit of embroidery. And some go for bold colours or clean modern cuts. That difference tells a story, not just of fashion, but of faith, comfort, and personality passed down between generations.

Grandfathers: The Quiet Keepers of Tradition

Older generations tend to keep things simple. They go for loose, flowing fits that prioritise comfort. Colours are usually classic like white, cream or soft grey. There’s a certain quiet dignity in these styles and they’re often worn in the everyday moments that mean the most.

Our traditional Moroccan styles with gentleembroidery and soft fabric are a clear favourite here. They’re easy to wear, timeless, and reflect a life lived with purpose.

Fathers: Somewhere Between Old-School and Modern

For dads, the jubba often becomes a bridge between generations. They want something that feels respectful but also fits into a busy lifestyle. You’ll see them choosing more tailored cuts or a jubba with clean embroidery. They may go for richer colours like navy,green or charcoal. Something that looks just as right at a community event as it does at a family gathering.

Thobez carries several modern Moroccan and Emirati-style jubbas that speak directly to this. Traditional where it matters. Updated where it counts.

Sons: Making it their Own

Younger boys tend to go for jubbas that are simple, light and easy to move in. That might mean short sleeves, fewer details or a slightly more casual fit. Still respectful. Still connected. Just more in tune with how they live and move through the day.

In our boys’ collection, you’ll find these kinds of styles in classic colours like white, grey and green. They’re perfect for Jummah, Eid, school events or just wearing at home when they want to feel part of something bigger.

Matching Styles that Bring it all Together

One of the most rewarding things to see and something we’re proud to offer is matching jubbas across generations. A father and son arriving at Jummah or Eid prayer in the same style says something that doesn’t need words. It’s about love, tradition and unity.

Thobez has a dedicated section for matching sets so families can choose pieces that fit all ages while keeping the same look and feel. It’s a small detail but it stays with you. And your kids will remember it just like you might remember wearing your first jubba beside your dad.

The jubba might look a little different from one generation to the next but the connection it carries never fades. Whether it’s worn loose or fitted, plain or embroidered, new or old, it’s a shared tradition that lives in the everyday moments. And that’s what makes it last.
