It involves adorning the bisht — a masculine cloak worn over an ankle-length tunic, known as a thobe, in the Arab region — with an array of scout badges from local, regional, and international events. The bisht holds significant cultural importance as the most traditional Saudi attire and also carries an air of prestige and is closely associated with royalty, opulence, and formal ceremonies.
