Sakeen Saudi Thobe White
R 1,399.00
White is the colour the Saudi thobe was measured against long before anyone thought to offer alternatives, and the Sakeen in white makes the case for keeping it that way. A smooth plain fabric, a sharp structured fall and a surface with nowhere for a shortcut to hide.
The traditional Saudi collar carries an Amaani Signature Button, with matching signature detail at the cuffs and the upper chest pocket. Against the clean white base the hardware reads as texture rather than decoration, which is exactly the balance the Sakeen is built on.
Wear it to Jumu'ah, a Nikah, Eid morning or any gathering where the traditional choice is the strongest one. Of Amaani's four Signature Saudi thobes, this is the purest expression.
Calm. Precise. Distinctly Amaani.
Also available in deep black.

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 White?
It is the white colourway of the Sakeen, one of Amaani's four Signature Saudi thobes: smooth plain fabric, a traditional Saudi collar and Amaani Signature Buttons at the collar, cuffs and upper chest pocket.
Why choose white?
White is the traditional first choice for a Saudi thobe: it reads clean, formal and timeless, and it photographs beautifully at a Nikah or on Eid morning. If you own one Saudi thobe, this is the colour to own it in.
What does the plain weave look like in person?
Completely smooth and even, with a soft structured fall. There is no pattern to catch the eye, so the crisp white surface and the precision of the tailoring carry the whole garment.
What occasions suit the white Sakeen?
Jumu'ah, Nikah, Eid and formal gatherings. The Saudi collar is the most formal thobe silhouette, and in white it reads most traditional.
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 a round collarless neckline. On the Sakeen it is finished with a single Signature Button and nothing more.
What fabric is it cut in?
It is cut in easy care polyester, a fabric that holds its colour, resists creasing and needs very little looking after.
How do I keep a white thobe white?
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. Wash it with light colours only to keep the base bright.
How is the Sakeen different from the Asrar and Fakhama?
Asrar and Fakhama both carry a diamond weave and Nibras a textured weave. The Sakeen is the plain one: a deliberately smooth surface that makes the tailoring itself the feature.
Is there a black version?
Yes. The same Signature cut is available in deep black as the Amaani Sakeen Saudi Thobe Black.
Would it work as a Nikah or Eid gift?
Yes - it arrives in premium Amaani packaging, and a white Saudi thobe is the most traditional gift you can give for a Nikah or Eid.
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.
Can I return or exchange it?
Yes, within 7 days of receiving your order, provided the item is unworn, unwashed and in its original packaging with tags. 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.
