That open weave is putting me into a stupor. A lovely, dreamy stupor.

Are you sure? Don't you see who posted them? Isn't this is where you post a lame picture in some vain attempt at humor?

Yes, I saw Mr. Personality's ties quoted by Dopester. Even someone like him can get it right occasionally.

Good ties Manton

I got this in black & silver/gray through sam hober. Actually Charvet had it but too long and wide for my taste and I am not familair with ordering directly from paris for changes.

http://shoponline.drakes-london.com/...ilk%20Tie.aspx

and am debating this one whether to get it from drakes or sam. I like these colors but check is too small to give the proper effect.

Plus I ordered that killer T4's tie (marinella) in sky blue blue and navy houndstooth

will post them once I receive them.

This explains why I'm the lucky owner of a solid navy untipped RLPL tie - it just wasn't soporific enough...
