Teal Kaftan

A deep teal, sitting between blue and green so it shifts slightly depending on the light. The kaftan is the most formal thing we make: a long-sleeved Moroccan thobe cut closer through the shoulders and chest than a gandoura, so it fits tailored rather than draped. Distinctive without being loud. Two working pockets, which is rarer in a kaftan than it should be. Collar: Zipped. Stands upright with no fold, so the embroidery reads cleanly from the neck down. Placket: Embroidered down the centre chest, with a concealed zip at the neck. The zip opens far enough to pull the kaftan on and off without disturbing the collar. Sleeve: Long, finished with embroidery at the cuff for that extra bit of shine. Fabric: Polyester and rayon blend. It holds a drape, resists creasing when you sit, and does not need pressing after a day out. Pockets: Two, set into the side seams, deep enough for a phone and keys. Fit: Tailored. Closer through the shoulders and chest than our gandoura. For a roomier fit, feel free to size up. Measurements are on the size guide. Best for: Eid prayer, weddings, evening gatherings. Teal is the compromise between wanting colour and not wanting to be the brightest man in the room. Wash instructions: Hand wash or dry clean only. Do not squeeze or twist. Lighter shades may carry washable tailor marks, and slight colour variation can occur between restocks.
