In this Green Tie Challenge let's demonstrate, or otherwise, the versatility and range of any shade of green tie. You will wear a suit, SC or odd-jacket combination and a green tie of course (!) is obligatory. Challenge details: Submissions must be posted by 1800hrs GMT Saturday 20th February 2016. All submissions are to have been worn week beginning 14th February 2016. The poll will go up directly on Saturday evening GMT and close on Monday 22nd February 2016. Good luck! @Anden

From earlier this week:

Honored to be an inspiration in the challenge post. Thank you @Cleav The lookbooks for Drake's of London gave me the idea for this fit. I love this jacket with denim. SC - Raffaele Caruso tweed Shirt - Kamakura Tie - Tie your Tie Cashmere Trousers - Levi´s Shoes - C&J Belgrave in Polo Suede

I like green, great challenge

Today, my attempt at this week's challenge. I was wondering about bottle green grenadine tie, but eventually felt like some pattern would liven up the outfit.

Spoiler: Details

* jacket, trousers and tie from Suitsupply * shirt from Charles Tyrwhitt * pocketsquare from Poszetka handcrafted * shoes by Berwick

Comments are as always welcome.

Cox might have some green, i go full green. And red. And black. And white. [COLOR=A74345] [/COLOR]

I own several green ties. But my Shibumi forest green knit beats them all.

^^ Does your shirt have a contrast collar or is my monitor playing tricks on me? My effort:

Just for the number :

Edit: The sun came out!

Unfortunately my files were too big and they blurred the photos a bit in the uploading/conversion process...but I think you get the point. [COLOR=A74345] [/COLOR]

It would be remiss of me not to take part....

With no hopes of winning:

 

[EFV]

Yes!

 

[archibaldleach]

Cool.

Excellent choice, Cleav! (And I'm not sure if there's precedent, but I think if you simply re-entered last week's winning fit, you might win by a landslide).

What's the over/under on Panta count in this challenge?

Ha, modesty forbids old friend! I'll just have to try a different one, if I get the time...

Could be a few Pantas make their bow here, I'd forgotten that. Good shout
