Never worn them in the UAE, but I went with some friends to World Cup in Sapporo, Japan back in '02, and we had tickets to the Saudi-Germany game as part of our package. We wore the robes (it's callde a 'dish dash', seriously) and the other attendees at the match thought we were Saudi. Then we'd bust out speaking relatively fluent Japanese (I'd lived there for 5 years many years ago), which produced some pretty amazed stares among the locals.
