Our Story

The Journey Begins With a Single Heritage Thread

Diplomat is a distinguished brand specializing in premium Gulf menswear since 1963.

Founded in Dubai and serving the entire GCC, the brand has established itself as one of the leading Emirati names in this field and among the largest suppliers in the region.

With nearly four decades of expertise, Diplomat continues to elevate the craftsmanship of cotton garments and shemaghs, utilizing the finest and most advanced raw materials available worldwide — refined to meet the needs of the modern Gulf gentleman.

This legacy is carried forward by a team of skilled professionals who have witnessed the evolution of the industry and deeply understand the preferences and style of Gulf men throughout the past forty years.

"A nation without a past is a nation without a present or a future."

This famous quote by His Highness
Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan,
may ALLAH rest his soul in peace, emphasizes the importance of honoring the past as the foundation for building a prosperous and civilized future.
