Hi,


I've done a lot of research on the internet and I am still to find a consistent answer. One person says one thing and one says the other.


What can a man wear walking around Saudi Arabia? Arriving at the airport and going shopping etc?


Shorts down covering knees?

Shorts just above the knee?

Some have said no shorts at all unless on the beach?


T shirts? Some have said sleeves down to the elbow at a minimum?


Shirt and tie for government buildings?


I don't mind what the answer is, I just don't want to offend anybody, especially on my first day arriving!


Thank you.

Are you relocating there? A business trip maybe?


While waiting for other members to reply,  I highly recommend you to read the Living in Saudi Arabia guide for °µÍø½ûÇøs, all articles here > Everyday life in Saudi Arabia will be useful.

Just dress appropriately and decent brother.  You can wear shorts anywhere except on Government facilities and masjid.

You can wear both Tshirt and short. There isn’t any issue.
