Wore my 6-fold brick & white on midnight blue macclesfield print (MCT 279) today.

How do you like the 6 fold Macclesfield? I almost bought one last night. I have two Macclesfield from Sam Hober - both standard construction (3 fold?). How do they compare? How's the drape? Thanks in advance!

 

[DCTieGuy]

The drape and weight of six-fold ties are amazing, but of course they are more expensive.

I wonder where @pinkpanther has been. I always appreciated his regular contributions to this thread.

Burgundy cashmere grenadine apropos of the earlier query.

Does anyone have pics of the Black & White Prince Of Wales Silk Tie #PWT-4? http://www.samhober.com/prince-of-w...and-white-prince-of-wales-silk-tie-pwt-4.html

I'm curious as to how light/dark of a gray it resolves to. Hoping it's not too dark.

Stumbled across this old picture of my rust grenadine.

This is exactly what I am looking for, but I can't find it on the site. Is it gone?

If anybody wants to sell their 9cm version, please PM me.

Hey does anybody have a photo of one of the new Mulberrywood Weave ties? Or have seen one? Thanks.

I just ordered one of the Mulberrywood Weave ties and have several swatches. I will post a pic when the tie comes in, which should be next week. The swatches are amazing looking. They have a great texture and a really beautiful sheen to them. I bought the steel blue and can't wait to see it.

 

[Mark Yoho]

Cool, thanks man. I ordered the burnt orange. We'll see. Haven't seen a swatch. Hope to see your photo, I went through the regular mail, so I have some patience to practice.

 

[theodoreprice]

These are the Mulberrywood swatches that I have
number 1 and 2

number 2 and 3 (steel blue)

number 3 and 4

number 4 and 5

number 5 and 6 (dark green)

number 6 and 7

number 7 and 8 (silver grey)

number 8 and 12 (fuchsia)

They are really hard to photograph but they are gorgeous. Great texture and a super sheen to them. Again, I ordered the steel blue, and should have it on Monday

 

[Mark Yoho]

Dang thanks man. Those are sweet. Good choice on the steel blue.

Thanks for the informative post @theodoreprice

Is that really the dark fuschia and not just fuschia?

 

[theodoreprice]

The #12 swatch is indeed dark fushia. Its really beautiful, but a little too bright for me. The #2 (purple) is my favorite behind the steel blue (#3) which I already ordered.
