The word thawb (ثَوْب) is a Standard Arabic word for “dress” or “garment“. It is also romanized as thobe, thaub or thob.

A thobe, also known as a kandura or a dishdashah, jellabiyah, jubbah, in other varieties of Arabic, is a garment traditionally worn by men in the Arab world. It is a long-sleeved, ankle-length robe that has regional variations in name and style. It can be worn in formal or informal settings, depending on the social and cultural norms in question; thobes are the main formal attire for men in Arabia. Outside of the Arab world, the garment has been adopted in a number of Muslim-majority areas, particularly in the Indian subcontinent, where it is commonly referred to as a jubbah and is frequently worn by those who regard it as sunnah (i.e., something practiced, spoken, or observed by Muhammad (PBUH), the founding Islamic prophet) due to its modest appearance.

The Arabic Thobe, Kandora, worn with pride across the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia, is more than just a garment—it is an embodiment of cultural heritage, elegance, and prestige.
