Amaani Ace Embroidered Thobe

What is the Amaani Ace Thobe?

It is a shirt collar thobe from the Amaani Premium Collection, defined by handcrafted Arabic embroidery running down the placket over a subtle contrast fabric. Signature buttons finish the collar, top pocket and cuffs, and it comes in black and white.

What colours does it come in?

Two: Black and White. Both carry the same embroidery and contrast detailing, so the choice comes down to whether you want the design to sit tonal on black or stand out on white.

What is the embroidery on the front?

A band of handcrafted Arabic embroidery runs the length of the placket, laid over a subtle contrast fabric that gives the design depth. The same contrast fabric repeats at the cuffs.

What kind of collar does it have?

A premium shirt collar with a contemporary line, the familiar collared silhouette rather than a collarless cut. It sits neatly on its own or under anything worn over it.

Does it have pockets?

Yes, two integrated pockets, placed to keep the front line of the thobe clean while still carrying your essentials.

How does Amaani thobe sizing work?

Amaani sizes combine a length number with a fit letter. The number, 52 to 62, is the length of the thobe, from 133 cm on a 52 up to 158 cm on a 62, and the letter sets the body fit, with S the slimmest cut and the letters widening through M, L, XL and beyond. A 56M, for example, is a 143 cm length in a medium fit. The Ace runs from 54M through 60XL; check the size picker on this page for the exact codes in stock.

How does the fit run?

Tailored, for a sleek, polished silhouette. It is cut to present well at occasions rather than to hang loose.

Who is it for?

Men who want visible craftsmanship on a wearable thobe: grooms and guests at a Nikah, and professionals who want their formal thobe to carry some design. The embroidery gives it presence without costume.

Is this suitable as a gift?

Yes. The handcrafted embroidery makes it read as a premium gift the moment the box opens, and the black or white choice keeps it safe for most tastes.

Can I see it in store before buying?

Yes. Compare the black and white versions side by side at Cii Stores, Shop 4, Ormonde Shopping Centre, Johannesburg, and see the embroidery up close before you commit.

What fabric is it made from and how do I care for it?
