Robes are not of any rank, and are worn by ordinary people, as well as by senior government officials attending feasts. In Oman, a long robe and a sword must be worn on formal occasions. It can be said that the robe has become a true Arab national costume.
The robe is called by different names in different countries, for example, Egypt calls it "Jerabye", and some Gulf countries call it "Dishidahi". Not only are there differences in name, but the robes also vary in style and function. The tunic is collarless, with a cylindrical bust and pockets in the front and back that look like two large cotton pockets stitched together that even a Japanese sumo wrestler could fit into; The Saudi robe has a high collar, long sleeves and a lining on the inside; Egyptian-style robes, with their low neckline, are relatively simple and practical. The most important thing to talk about is the Omani robe. Near the collar, this style has a rope spike about 30 cm long hanging over the front chest, with a small opening at the bottom of the spike, like a calyx. It is a special place to store spices or spray perfume, which shows the Omani man's love of beauty.
