All submissions are to have been worn week beginning 14th February 2016. The poll will go up directly on Saturday evening GMT and close on Monday 22nd February 2016. Good luck! @Anden

Thanks in advance to our esteemed friends ^ for the inspiration pics (Last FC Green Tie Challenge, thanks @EFV) demonstrating a huge range from which to choose.
YOUR ENTRANTS​
I have the week off, but put on a tie for the FC. PRL neat tie. Shirt is yellow. [COLOR=A74345] [/COLOR] [COLOR=A74345] [/COLOR]
From earlier this week:
Honored to be an inspiration in the challenge post. Thank you @Cleav The lookbooks for Drake's of London gave me the idea for this fit. I love this jacket with denim. SC - Raffaele Caruso tweed Shirt - Kamakura Tie - Tie your Tie Cashmere Trousers - Levi´s Shoes - C&J Belgrave in Polo Suede
I like green, great challenge :D
Today, my attempt at this week's challenge. I was wondering about bottle green grenadine tie, but eventually felt like some pattern would liven up the outfit.
* jacket, trousers and tie from Suitsupply * shirt from Charles Tyrwhitt * pocketsquare from Poszetka handcrafted * shoes by Berwick
Comments are as always welcome.
Cox might have some green, i go full green. And red. And black. And white. [COLOR=A74345] [/COLOR]
I own several green ties. But my Shibumi forest green knit beats them all.
^^ Does your shirt have a contrast collar or is my monitor playing tricks on me? My effort:
Just for the number :
Edit: The sun came out!
Unfortunately my files were too big and they blurred the photos a bit in the uploading/conversion process...but I think you get the point. [COLOR=A74345] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=A74345] [/COLOR] Finally my entry. Rainy day in Basel.
It would be remiss of me not to take part....

Excellent choice, Cleav! (And I'm not sure if there's precedent, but I think if you simply re-entered last week's winning fit, you might win by a landslide).

What's the over/under on Panta count in this challenge?

Ha, modesty forbids old friend! I'll just have to try a different one, if I get the time...

Could be a few Pantas make their bow here, I'd forgotten that. Good shout :nodding:
