Start with the cut, then the color.
For a collar thobe, the M113 White Collar Thobe With Gold Embroidery is our best-selling US thobe. The M126 Midnight Blue Collar Thobe With Gold Buttons is a darker option with gold buttons along the chest.
For a collarless Emirati cut, the M121 Black Emirati Thobe With Gold Embroidery keeps the gold detail understated.
For everyday wear, our Omani cuts are $69.99. The M119 Aqua Blue Omani Thobe is a light, easy color for warm days.
Choose cotton if you prefer a natural fiber and a soft feel. Choose wrinkle-resistant fabric if you need a thobe that holds its shape through travel or a long event. Compare both by browsing our wrinkle-resistant thobes. For more collarless styles, see our Omani thobes.

Helpful guides:
Many men prefer cotton in warm weather because it is a natural fiber. A lighter color like white or aqua blue also helps on hot days.
The M113 White, M106 Light Taupe, M120 Green Emirati and M121 Black Emirati all have embroidery.
Cotton can crease more than wrinkle-resistant fabric. If you want minimal ironing, look at our wrinkle-resistant range.
A thobe (also spelled thawb, thaub, or thob) is a long-sleeved, ankle-length robe traditionally worn by men across the Middle East. It is generally worn mostly by Muslims but is not exclusive to just them. It is made from breathable fabrics, that would be suitable in warmer climates.
Japanese cotton thobes are the most sought after thobes in the Middle East. At Al Aniq they are the popular due to their quality and durability. We also have thobes in shiny polyester which is generally worn in the West. Our short sleeve thobes are made with cotton blend. We also have thobes made from Terry rayon fabric which slightly thicker, made for the colder climate.
Thobes are not a religious requirement in Islam, but they are a traditional and cultural garment. Many Muslims wear thobes as a symbol of modesty and because they resemble the style of clothing worn during the time of the Prophet Muhammad, making them Sunnah-friendly but not obligatory.
Thobes are not exclusive to Muslims only. They can be worn by people of all faith and culture, as long as respect for the culture and religion of Islam is maintained whilst wearing the thobes.
A thobe itself is not directly prescribed as Sunnah, since the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ wore the traditional garments of his era, which were loose and modest. However, many Muslims consider wearing a thobe Sunnah-friendly because it fulfills the Islamic principles of modesty and resembles the Prophet’s style of dress.
