Show us your TIES

(with a clean word on it, though:eusa_doh: )...

The only clean words I've ever seen on those ties were the full names of their owners, written sideways.

Those are fairly nice as well. You get use out of it even though you aren't the person named and almost no one ever is the wiser.

I finally got around to actually trying on the better of my two vintage ties, also the first time I've tried out one of my vintage collar bars. I think the knot is a bit too small, but it tied incredibly easily compared to my modern ties.

If I had trousers that had enough rise, I could make the tie shorter and the knot bigger/longer. But with the trousers I have, the tie only comes about halfway down my shirt. lol

Oh, and this old collar bar is infinitely better than the modern one I purchased first. Plus it was many times cheaper! Oh well, live and learn.

When you have to make do with only one tie...

I found this 4-in-1 oddity at the thrift shop yesterday. Lightweight wool with fringed ends, both ends the same width and a different plaid on each side.

 

[Marc Chevalier]

Those 4-in-1s are great. I've seen a couple of others: they both came from England.

If you could design your own tie......

This is done very hastily, but I like bold geometric designs.

Hermès ,until recently, offered 4-in-1 ties in tightly knitted Merino wool. I used to give them as gifts; great travel tie.

Nice contrast, Marcus. And you're also fortunate in being photogenic in all your photos, bloke!

I had the same knot problem today, too. But, you make do as you can...

"I'm no expert, but some of them look 60's, a bit "Flower Power" & positively "Phycadelic" but I must say I do rather like them

 

[Highlander]

Not really vintage, but love the designs by Pangborn, and some cool art deco stuff he does, often at e-bay for a good price.
