Frequently asked questions
What is the Amaani Ace Thobe in Black?
It is the black colourway of the Ace: a premium shirt collar thobe with handcrafted Arabic embroidery down the placket, subtle contrast fabric on the placket and cuffs, and signature Amaani buttons.
What does the embroidery look like on black?
The Arabic embroidery sits tonally against the black base, so it reads as texture first and calligraphy second. It rewards a second look without announcing itself across the room.
What occasions suit the black Ace?
A Nikah, formal gatherings and the working week. The shirt collar makes it the most office-compatible thobe in the range, and black keeps it sharp through a long day.
How does the sizing work?
Amaani thobes are sized by two measurements. The number (e.g. 56) is the thobe length in inches, measured from shoulder to hem - choose it according to your height. The letter (S, M, L, XL, XXL) is the width and fit profile: select a smaller letter for a sharper, tailored appearance, or a larger one for a more relaxed, traditional silhouette.
What sizes does it come in?
Lengths 54 through 62, each in a spread of width fits. The size picker on this page shows exactly which combinations are available.
What is special about the shirt collar?
It is a pointed, fold-down collar like a formal shirt's, rather than a traditional band. It frames the face the way tailoring does, which is why the Ace wears so well in professional settings.
What is it made of?
It is cut in polycotton, a polyester and cotton blend that pairs cotton breathability with polyester durability.
How do I care for it?
Wash it cool, hang it to dry and give it a warm iron if needed. The blend keeps its shape and colour without any fussing.
Is there a white version?
Yes. The Ace is also cut in white as its own listing, the Amaani Ace Thobe White.
Would it work as a gift?
Yes - the Ace arrives in premium Amaani packaging, and the embroidered placket makes it feel like a considered choice rather than a safe one.
How much is delivery and how long does it take?
Standard delivery is R160 and takes 3 to 5 working days anywhere in South Africa. Orders over R1500 ship free.

Size exchanges are available within the same window, with shipping for the return and the replacement paid by the customer. Please note there are strictly no exchanges or refunds after Eid, and sale items cannot be returned.
