A thobe (correctly thawb, Arabic ËæÈ) is an ankle-length garment, usually with long sleeves, similar to a robe. Most often, they are worn by men in the Arabian Peninsula and several surrounding countries. They are normally made of cotton, but heavier materials such as sheep's wool can be used as well, especially in colder climates. In some locations, they are also known as dishdasha.
