Surely its just a knot so the material, cotton, silk, cashmere, tweed would'nt come into it? My Harris Tweed Tie is pure tweed, so surely a bow tie would follow the same principle? I'm looking for a houndstooth pattern, it did occur...

Does any one know where i can aquire a Tweed self-tie Bow Tie? Preferably of the Harris style.

I just bought this one, Harris Tweed have quite a good selection of tweed ties, however they have yet to branch out into bow ties.

There are a couple of lovely Harris Tweeds on VT at the moment but they both have leather arm patches Could these be removed without damaging the jackets? Also just spotted this chap probably in his first HT :-)

I'd have to second 'Vintage Whistles' for a good variety of Harris Tweed jackets, also Ebay can have a good selection of Harris Tweed jackets for semi-reasonable prices. Having said that, two i have been watching on ebay are now bidding...
