Congruent necktie by ERIc Glennie worn by the media

I attached a few video clips of the local Minneapolis news anchors wearing the diagonal and vertical versions of the congruent necktie. Mr. Don Shelby is a well decorated anchor for over 30 years and loves to dress up. There is even a necktie knot named after him ( Shelby-Pratt necktie knot). The diagonal striped congruent neckties are cool, but the vertical striped congruent necktie is a show stopper as seen on Mr. Shelby. On the clip with the drunk driver, you can see a close up of the vertical tie and how unique it looks on Mr. Shelby.

Eric Glennie was laughed at, mocked, ignored, and ridiculed. People thought I was crazy, but I will become the greatest menswear designer in the history of fashion. The congruent necktie will be timeless and will forever be the look in menswear. For the last 150 years, the stripes in the necktie knot have been turned upside down. I just turned the lights on to how the the necktie should be worn. History is to be made. Checkout the ESPN sportsreporters this week and you will see the congruent necktie all over the place.

ftfy. All jokes aside, getting your ties on some obscure news readers is very impressive Eric.

I think it looks pretty cool. The tie goes nicely with the guys pinstripe suit.

Glennie I think this is very cool. Your cut out stuff was/is bad, but these ties are nice and tastefully creative. But what's cooler to me is your perseverance, and I am glad things are starting to happen for you.

I'm so glad that drunk driver survived. And I'm glad that school was able to make ends meet. Can't wait to see the ESPN clips. I need to know the latest in Tiger Woods shenanigans.

I wouldn't wear them myself, but they look surprisingly good on those guys. Congrats!

Not personally a fan of horizontal or vertical tie stripes, but congrats!

The second one is great, and props on getting some TV time, i believe this isnt the first time Glennie has made the media.

Congrats on surviving the negative reaction that SF prides itself on.

I am fine judging you one project at a time, and the congruent necktie was definitely your best idea, by far. I think it has good potential.
