Quick question re: solid ties...

discostu004 · Nov 4, 2009

OK guys, I'm working with someone to possibly develop our own 7-fold tie, but it seems I would have to order 50 of just one color/style. I'm thinking of a solid but honestly don't want to do 50, but if that's what i gotta do, then that's what i gotta do. What solid color are you most likely to buy? I wanted some experienced answers, and not just guess "uuuuh, i'll dooooooooo GOLD!" any guidance? If i get them at the price I'm hoping, they'd be around $79-85. thanks

hmmmm... any weave or texture? Silk? Wool?

I'd probably say navy... it's the solid color I don't own atm and probably covet most. Probably the most common I see in WAYWN as well. Wool would be great. EDIT: you said 7 fold so silk I guess.

Definitely dark blue. Second would be burgundy.

Navy and a deep burgundy

A dark mustard. One that's rarely seen, but is a great piece.

People can get a navy or burgundy tie anywhere.

Navy, charcoal, dark gray, black, and burgundy. I have them in each of these colors.

I was thinking of that deep mustard, sort of tapestry gold. Certainly do-able. But I'd dare say it'll be easier to sell 50 in navy.

I'd tend towards burgundy first, navy second.

Fifty? No tiemaker I know insists on more than a dozen. Several will weave silk for you for as few as four ties.

50 is what i've been told. i'm trying to get them to do fewer. my first choice was navy. my partner suggested burgundy, which i wouldn't have thought of, but you guys seem to like that color. see, that's why i go to the experts

You mean that you can ask for your own design tie and have it produced just 4 of them?

Sound so good that I must have it understood badly.

Navy!

cksnipe · Nov 4, 2009

I vote for navy as well, especially one with a nice texture!
