The sirwal (Arabic: سِرْوَال / ALA-LC: sirwāl; Turkish: şalvar), also known as punjabi pants, are a form of Arabic pants predating the Christian era. They are typically worn in the Arabian Peninsula and other primarily Muslim countries, but also extensively in the Greek countryside (and other places in the Balkans) prior to WWII. The drawstring allows a sirwal to be worn at either the waist or hip level. Sirwal are worn by both sexes–under the thawb, by women under a skirt, or alone with some sort of loose top.

Sirwal ( سِرْوَال , türk.: şalvar) ist eine orientalische lange, weite Kniebundhose aus Halbseide. Sie war ursprünglich nur für Frauen gedacht, diese tragen sie an den Knöcheln bestickt unter einem Kleid.
