I don't understand the Drake's mystique at all. Except for the grenadine ties and the now defunct Bird of Paradise pocket square, it all seems like pretty dull stuff.

Only the grenadines and cashmere ties , the rest is as Hermes mystique, pure snobism.

It looks like most items are already gone.

Anyone know if they charge you any duties, etc. when shipping to the USA?

Extremely high quality, with fairly conservative, yet still very sharp patterns. That's the holy grail for many of us. Drake's is one SF-groupthink-approved maker that deserves its hype, IMO.

A couple of different lengths/widths which is helpful as well.

Thanks for the heads up. The Ben Silver are nice but I just preferred Drakes stripe versions better. Also Drakes Shantung silk seems to be more stubbier.

It says that the Ben Silver ones are made by Drake's. Different designs and fabric maybe.

Those slubby striped shantungs were the first to go, and rightfully so. Shame, I wanted one of those. Im missing that in my collection.

Most of the good stuff is gone
