Men’s Thobes

A thobe isn’t just something you wear, it’s part of who you are. It reflects tradition, culture, and personal style, and it remains an important choice for many men today. Our collection of men’s thobes includes classic cuts, modern styles, and regional designs so you can find something suited to daily wear, prayer, travel, and special occasions.
Within our range, you’ll find men’s jubbas, men’s dishdashas, men’s kanduras, and men’s thawbs. These styles differ by region, but all share the same purpose: modest, comfortable clothing that fits naturally into your routine. We choose fabrics carefully and focus on durability, comfort, and a clean finish across all our thobes for men.

How Did the Men’s Thobe Develop Over Time?

The thobe has been worn for centuries across the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia. It originally served as a practical, lightweight garment for warm climates, but it soon became linked with cultural identity and modest dress. As styles evolved, garments such as the jubba, thawb, dishdasha, and kandura became recognised parts of Islamic clothing for men, each shaped by local tradition.
Some regions preferred simple designs, while others introduced embroidery, tassels, and textured fabrics. At Thobez, we value these differences and offer styles that respect their origins while still being suitable for modern life.

Which Style is Right for You?

Choosing the right thobe depends on how you plan to wear it and the fit you prefer. Our collection includes pieces inspired by Saudi, Emirati, Omani, and Moroccan tailoring, giving you options ranging from clean and structured to relaxed and traditional.

Comparison of Popular Thobe Styles

 This variety makes it easy to choose between a simple everyday men’s thawb, a traditional dishdasha, or a modern kandura depending on your needs.

Thobes and Jubbas for Men for Every Occasion

A thobe fits naturally into many moments of life, which is why many men keep more than one style in their wardrobe.

• Weddings and celebrations: Finely finished or embroidered thobes work well for these special days.
• Eid prayers and family events: Fresh colours and tidy cuts give a presentable look.
• Daily wear: Lightweight fabrics and simple cuts keep you comfortable through long days.
• Friday prayers: Classic white jubbas for men remain a popular choice.
• Work and community settings: Neutral colours and plain designs create a smart, practical option.
• Travel: Breathable materials and relaxed fits keep you comfortable during long journeys.
• Seasonal needs: Short sleeve styles work well in warm weather, while heavier fabrics offer comfort in cooler months.

At Thobez, our collection includes both everyday men’s jubbas and pieces suited to community gatherings and important occasions.

Styles and Colours to Match Your Personal Taste

We believe your thobe should feel comfortable and reflect your personal style. That’s why our collection includes a wide range of colours. Classic white remains a consistent choice, but we also offer black, navy, grey, charcoal, cream, sand, stone, beige, olive, light blue, and muted greens. These options help you build a wardrobe that suits different seasons and settings.

Our styles take inspiration from a range of tailoring traditions. Some thobes have a smooth, minimal look, while others feature textured fabrics, tassels, embroidery, or hooded Moroccan influences.

Men’s Thobes & Jubbas FAQ’s

What is the difference between a thobe, jubba, dishdasha, thawb, and kandura?

These garments share a similar purpose but come from different regions. A thobe or thawb is common across the Middle East, a jubba is often associated with South Asian and East African communities, the dishdasha is typical in Oman, and the kandura is widely worn in the UAE. At Thobez, we offer styles influenced by each tradition.

Are men’s thobes Islamic or cultural?

They are both. The thobe predates Islam and has long been worn across the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding regions. Its modest shape aligned with Islamic principles when the religion spread, which strengthened its link to Muslim identity. Today, it is worn culturally and religiously in countries including Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, the UAE, and parts of North Africa.

How should a men’s thobe fit?

It should feel comfortable across the shoulders and chest with enough room to move easily. Most thobes sit around the ankle. The fit may vary slightly by region, and Thobez offers different cuts to match your height and build.

How long is a men’s thobe supposed to be?

Traditionally, the length sits around the ankle for ease of movement and practicality. Some cuts sit slightly above the ankle, depending on tailoring and regional preference.
