Mine is RTW. Might have to do with the probably lower quality canvas (it's half canvassed). Don't have pics ATM frown.gif

I ordered through Mina. You might want to just email him with that picture and ask him if he still has some of that silk available? He has more than what's on the website.

I know it's A&S, as well as Steed's style, but idk if that's just coincidence or if there's some aesthetic or practical necessity behind associating the lapel shape and the construction.

Over on the London Lounge, Michael Alden's DBs seem to have straighter lapels while also being of softer construction.

Yea that's not it. I just browsed through, didn't see it. But I did see this one, which I have, and is an awesome and really versatile tie. Highly recommend:

Most navy neats on the site are great anyways.

 

I just wish there was a bigger selection of wool challis ties there...
