Sakeen Saudi Thobe Black
R 1,399.00
Sakeen strips the Saudi thobe back to its essentials: smooth plain fabric, a sharp structured silhouette and nothing to distract from the precision of the tailoring. The clean surface is the point, a composed, confident presence.
The traditional Saudi collar is lifted by Amaani Signature Buttons on the collar, cuffs and upper chest pocket, refined touches that add character without breaking the garment's understated sophistication.
In deep black, Sakeen carries quiet authority: it moves easily from formal gatherings to Nikah, Eid and special occasions, a versatile expression of modern Saudi tailoring within the Amaani Signature Collection.
Calm. Precise. Distinctly Amaani.
Also available in classic white.

Size Guidance
Amaani Thobes are sized using two precise measurements: length and width.
The numeric size (e.g. 52) reflects the thobe length in inches, measured from shoulder to hem.
The letter size (M, L, XL, XXL) determines the overall width and fit profile.
For a sharper, tailored appearance, select a smaller letter size.
For a more relaxed, traditional silhouette, opt for a larger size.
Choose your standard length according to height, then refine the fit by selecting the width that best reflects your personal preference.
The number is the length in inches, shoulder to hem. The letter is the fit through the chest and body. All measurements in centimetres.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Amaani Sakeen Saudi Thobe in Black?
It is the black colourway of the Sakeen, one of Amaani's four Signature Saudi thobes: a smooth plain fabric with a traditional Saudi collar and Amaani Signature Buttons on the collar, cuffs and upper chest pocket.
What makes the Sakeen different from the other Signatures?
Sakeen is the plain one, deliberately. Where Asrar and Fakhama carry a diamond weave and Nibras a textured weave, Sakeen relies on a completely smooth surface and lets the tailoring and the signature hardware do all the talking.
How does the black colourway wear?
Black reads formal from Maghrib onwards and composed in daylight. On the smooth plain fabric the colour sits deep and even, so the thobe looks considered without a single pattern on it.
What occasions suit the black Sakeen?
The Saudi collar is the most formal thobe silhouette: Nikah, Eid, Jumu'ah and gatherings where presence matters. Black carries quiet authority in all of them.
How does the sizing work?
Amaani thobes are sized by two measurements. The number (e.g. 56) is the thobe length in inches, measured from shoulder to hem - choose it according to your height. The letter (S, M, L, XL, XXL) is the width and fit profile: select a smaller letter for a sharper, tailored appearance, or a larger one for a more relaxed, traditional silhouette.
What sizes does it come in?
Lengths 54 through 62, each in five width fits from S to XXL, 25 sizes in total. The size picker on this page shows live availability per size.
What is a Saudi collar?
A structured shirt style collar in the classic Saudi tradition, rather than the round collarless neckline of Omani cuts. On the Sakeen it is kept clean and finished with a Signature Button.
What is it made of?
It is cut in easy care polyester, a fabric that holds its colour, resists creasing and needs very little looking after.
How do I care for it?
Wash it cool, hang it to dry and give it a warm iron if needed. The polyester holds its shape wash after wash, so it stays crisp without any fussing.
What detailing does it carry?
Amaani Signature Buttons on the collar, cuffs and upper chest pocket. Nothing else. The restraint is the design.
Does the Sakeen come in other colours?
Yes. The same cut is available in classic white as its own listing, the Amaani Sakeen Saudi Thobe White.
Would it work as a gift?
Yes - the Sakeen arrives in premium Amaani packaging, and black is the safest colour to gift when you are unsure of taste.
How much is delivery and how long does it take?
Standard delivery is R160 and takes 3 to 5 working days anywhere in South Africa. Orders over R1000 ship free.

Size exchanges are available within the same window, with shipping for the return and the replacement paid by the customer. Please note there are strictly no exchanges or refunds after Eid, and sale items cannot be returned.
