In Alabasta, Ace catches up with Luffy while pursuing Blackbeard, bringing an older brother’s easy confidence into the Straw Hats’ journey. His familiar shirtless appearance leaves the black shorts clearly visible, with orange at the waist and blue around the thigh giving a simple outfit its particular identity.
This Portgas D. Ace costume focuses on that lower half. The set consists of black rolled-cuff shorts, an orange belt and a blue thigh strap. It is a compact starting point for someone assembling Ace’s wardrobe piece by piece, especially when the accessories are already waiting.
Orange at the waist, blue at the thigh
Ace’s shorts have very little competing for attention. Black supplies the broad base, the rolled cuffs establish the lower edge, and the two colored accents interrupt that dark shape at different heights. The orange belt draws a horizontal line across the waist; the blue strap places a second point of interest farther down one leg.
That spacing matters when composing a photograph. A crop ending immediately below the belt would lose the thigh detail and cuffs, removing much of what distinguishes these shorts. Leave enough room in the frame to show all three elements together, particularly for a portrait centered on the costume rather than the face.
The Ace pieces covered by $38.99
The Shorts And Belt option costs $38.99, and the blue thigh strap is also included. Polyester is the listed material. There is one outfit option, offered in S, M, L, XL and XXL, so the practical choice here is which size matches your body measurements.
The hat, beads, wig, shirt and shoes are not included. That distinction is useful for budgeting: the three supplied pieces establish the lower silhouette, while any headwear, jewelry, hair choice or footwear needs its own place in the plan. Existing Ace accessories can be paired with this set.
Measuring for Ace’s shorts
The chart uses body measurements in centimeters, rather than measurements taken from the finished shorts. Waist and hip figures deserve particular attention for this purchase. Height provides another reference, but it should be read alongside those circumferences when comparing the available sizes.
- S lists a 72–75 cm waist and 84–87 cm hips.
- L lists an 80–84 cm waist and 92–95 cm hips.
- XXL lists an 89–92 cm waist and 100–103 cm hips.
M and XL are also orderable. Compare both waist and hips instead of relying only on a familiar letter size; the two measurements may point toward different rows. The hand-measured chart allows for a difference of 1–3 cm.
Let the cuffs stay in view
For an Ace and Luffy pairing, a relaxed standing pose gives these shorts room to register without elaborate staging. Keep the waist, thigh strap and rolled hems visible together. With such a small garment selection, each detail carries a noticeable share of the character reference.
Against the black shorts, the orange belt quietly holds its own.
