cashmere ties

That last one sure is gorgeous.

I too like cashmere ties, although I only have one, a Paul Stuart found at Goodwill. Despite being (presumably) old enough to find its way into a thrift store, it was in perfect condition, which I hope is a testament to its quality.

I really don't see why you couldn't wear a cashmere tie in the warmer months. Not a glenplaid or houndstooth, for sure, or some terribly thick, humongous-knotted job that could be mistaken for a scarf, but something more reasonably proportioned in a more summery color/pattern would look quite fine to my eyes. After all, a cashmere tie is more casual than a silk one, and summer is a more casual season.

I have one lined Zegna that's like wearing a mink. But I have another cashmere blend that's much more manageable. Overall, I like them, but I'm in no rush to buy another.

It just doesn't seem right. And then what would I do with all my linen ties?

I occasionally wear wool or cashmere ties in the summer. I don't really observe any seasonal rules with regard to ties.

Totally love cashmere ties. Haven't tried to wear them in the summer, though. Mine don't coordinate well with my summer jackets.

Have a bunch from Nicky, Borrelli and Barbera, never wear them.

You should sell them to the fans for a shoe financing!

Tomasso, sometimes I can't tell if you're trying hard to let on how many clothing items you own or how wealthy you are.

Yeah, if they're just taking up space in your closet, use them to defray those new fabric purchases or whatever. I have a really hard time finding good wool/cashmere ties around here.
