Fedora Lounge Club Tie - NOW AVAILABLE!

[Indy Magnoli]

Well... it looks like "A" is winning again. I'll start looking into production perhaps next week and keep you all posted.

Kind regards,
Indy

I think it's easy to rule out C and E, and D is the best choice. Want to arm wrestle?

If you insist.

 

[J. M. Stovall]

Ok, you wore me down. I finally agree that A is the best choice for a club tie.

But I would buy a Deco tie too.

 

[Vladimir Berkov]

A club tie is like a secret handshake. Only those "in the know" are supposed to recognize what it means. Adding a logo makes having a club tie pointless, you might as well just have a solid tie with a huge logo.

Oh, great! Now we've got to modify the poll! :eusa_doh:

Alright, the winner of the club tie contest is the gold/grey/black with no logo. I'll get onto it and keep you posted...

Kind regards,
Indy

This is the view i have come round to also.

 

[Brian Sheridan]

No logo makes it look like you bought it at any old store, and it doesn't seem unique or special.

I agree. I think subtle is best but the logo should be present.

 

[Indy Magnoli]

Here is a more realistic digital mock-up of what I'm hoping this tie will look like. I'd like to give the silk a rich alternating herringbone weave:

Kind regards,
Indy

 

[Edward]

I like that!

 

[Smithy]

I'll be in for one. Thank goodness it ended up logoless!

 

[benstephens]

Hmmn,

It is a good design but, that is the exact colours of one of our schools house ties, and not the house I was in. Do I break with loyalty?

(Who would order one as well!)

I think collegiate stripes slant the other way, if it helps any. [huh]

Maybe in the States but not necessarily in other parts of the world. I know of several English schools that have stripes in that direction, and also several from NZ including my old school.

 

[Cobden]

Aye, my old boys tie goes from left down to right

Yep, very Harry Potterish. :eusa_doh:

I think option 'A' is best for a tie with stripes, I think the logo would look better on a solid colour tie.

 

[TraderRic]

Opt A looks great, especially with the herringbone weave. Just wear the FL lapel pin if you feel the need for a logo. It is still on the subtle side, but ties it all in (no pun intended).

 

[Dr Doran]

ties it all in (no pun intended).

Whew. I'm glad that wasn't intended ...

Any chance this will be ready for the QM event?

Well... I'm leaving for a one month holiday starting on the 15th of August. I'm hoping to have them before then, but if not, they should be ready for sale by the end of September at the latest.

Kind regards,
Indy
