I've never had any of J. Crew's knit ties, but I've owned two of their regular silk ties that both ended up misshapen from regular wear...never bought a tie from them again.

I think I'm going to go with the solid pink and sky blue and red dot Younts. Can these be had for less than listed on their site? Is there an SF deal like with Viccel and others?

I dont mind paying retail, just want to make sure I'm not overspending.

Bit of a random question here: The label on my BB knit silk tie says "weighted not over 50%" on the label (under the "hand frame knitted all silk"). Anyone have any idea what that means?

I bought the brown linen pocket square from that same thread. It's my first pocket square, it's amazing, was had for $5, and now I want to own a few more. **** Spoo for giving me a new addiction.

Michelsons are excellent value, with a good range of solids, and a rather more limited range of spots and stripes. £15 in the UK including shipping. I expect they ship internationally.

J Crew and RLBL are IDENTICAL and one costs 1/3 the price... I'll let you guess which one that is.

I bought 2 from Lands End - one black and one black and purple stripes. They cost $39 and are made in Italy. I think they're more or less identical to the RLPL knit I have, except they're wider (which I prefer).
