Traditional: 這個有黑色的嗎？
When to use it
The structure 有…的吗 literally asks 'is there a ___ one?'; the 的 turns the color into a noun ('a black one'). It's the natural way to ask about variants in shops. Chinese shop staff will usually answer with 有 (yes) or 没有 (no) and immediately point or fetch. In big Mainland stores like Uniqlo or Taobao pickup points, you can also say 有黑色吗? without the 的; both are fine. For online shopping on Taobao or Pinduoduo, the same phrase works when you message a seller via 旺旺 chat.
