Any recommendations for grenadine ties?

[EddieK]

I've been looking at Charles Trywhitt, Alaksau, Chipp neckwear, and Knottery. I'm just wondering if these are decent brands. Or if you have any recommendations on others as well.
I don't mind if it's either fina or grossa weave, although I think I prefer grossa a bit more.

Drake's. H.N.White.

The grenadine is all made in the same couple of mills in Como. So it comes down to which maker you prefer.

Thanks for the recommendations. Some new companies I've not heard of before.
Sam Hober pricing is impressive considering that their ties are custom as well.

Berg and berg, atleast if you are in europe.

They have CAD pricing but man...it's 50% off all their grenadines right now, but almost all of the good colors are sold out

Just go with Hober. Custom made to yours specs and whatever additions you want. You will not be disappointed.

I might order a tie just because of this line on their website: "If the small end is below your big end then your tie is too long". Preach!

Quick question to those familiar with these kind of ties?
Is a 70%linen/30% silk blend grenadine acceptable? I know grenadines are almost always 100% silk.
This one just looks really nice to me.

Acceptable is all relative--this one looks cool and would probably be a great warmer-weather/summer tie. I wouldn't use it in the same vein as a conservative dark navy for business-wear.

My grenadine ties are from Drake’s and New & Lingwood. I recommend both.

It might be a nice tie, but it's not grenadine. Grenadine-like, sure, and nothing wrong with that. I'm not sure why you're concerned about acceptability: to whom? For what? It looks like a decent tie and if it fits your needs, then buy it.

Thanks. This was the answer I was looking for. I have a lot of nice ties but I've never owned a grenadine. That's why I'm kind of keen on buying a 'true' grenadine. I still do fancy that linen silk tie... might buy it.
