What Is a Farwa Bisht?
A farwa bisht is a traditional Arabian overcoat worn over the thobe, distinguished by its soft, warm lining ("farwa" refers to the fur-like or fleece lining itself). Unlike a plain bisht, the farwa version is designed specifically for the colder months, combining the elegant look of a classic bisht with an insulated inner layer for extra warmth and comfort.

Design & Craftsmanship Details
Every farwa bisht in our collection features a soft fleece or fur-effect lining sewn beneath a smooth outer shell, giving structure on the outside and warmth on the inside. The overcoat has long sleeves and a zip fastening, so it can be closed for extra warmth and sits comfortably over a thobe. Fine top-stitching along the edges and cuffs gives each piece a tailored, premium finish suited to formal wear as well as everyday layering.

Fabric and Comfort
Our farwa bishts are made using a soft-touch outer fabric paired with a warm fleece-style inner lining, chosen to stay lightweight while still providing real insulation against the cold. The fabric is breathable enough to wear indoors at gatherings, yet warm enough for outdoor wear in winter, and it holds its shape and softness with regular wear.

How to Choose Your Farwa Bisht
For everyday winter wear, black or grey offers a versatile, understated look that pairs easily with most thobe colours. For a warmer, more traditional finish, beige and brown farwa bishts work well for daytime, family occasions, Eid, and formal winter events.
