The black Spade plays its detail closer to the chest. The mandarin collar and artisan cuffs keep their intricate design work, but over a black base the contrast becomes suggestion: depth you notice when the light moves, not decoration you see from the door.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Amaani Spade Thobe in Black?
It is the black colourway of the Spade: a mandarin collar thobe with subtle contrast fabric at the collar, artisan cuff detailing and signature Amaani buttons at the collar, placket, top pocket and cuffs.
How does the design work read on black?
As depth rather than decoration. The contrast accents sit close to the base tone, so the collar and cuffs reveal their detailing gradually, in person, up close.
What occasions suit the black Spade?
Evening events, a Nikah that runs past Maghrib, formal gatherings and Jumu'ah in winter. Black keeps the mandarin collar looking modern and composed.
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 a mandarin collar?
A short standing collar that circles the neck without folding over: clean, modern and comfortable under a scarf or over a long evening.
What makes the cuffs artisan?
Layered, intricate cuff detailing finished with signature buttons. On the black colourway the work reads tone on tone, which is exactly the point.
What fabric is it cut in?
It is cut in easy care polyester, a fabric that holds its colour, resists creasing and needs very little looking after.
Does black fade with washing?
Polyester holds dye well. Wash it cool, hang it to dry and give it a warm iron if needed. The polyester holds its shape wash after wash, so it stays crisp without any fussing.
Is there a white version?
Yes. The Spade is also cut in white as its own listing, the Amaani Spade Thobe White.
Would it work as a gift?
Yes - it arrives in premium Amaani packaging, and black is the safest colour to gift when you are unsure of taste.
How much is delivery and how long does it take?
