Manton has selected the following finalists. The below text is his: And the nominees are:
This is just great. Works against all the odds.
Great mixing of differently scaled stripes. Also the ratio of ground to figure in the tie design is just right. Perfect colors.
Four distinctly differnt patterns that work well together. What sets this apart is that the color of the tie is different than everything else, yet the secondary colors in the tie pick up the shirt. Nice.
Could have picked any of Ed's but went with this one. Because I am a sucker for blue and brown? Maybe.
Sweet use the Royal Artillery tie, even if I disapprove as a matter of principle.
Both combos are great, mostly, but I went with this one because the square sucks a bit less.
Nearly all of Andrew's worked as well; this just happened to be my favorite.
This has it all.
I liked the other one too, but good God man, who wears a white shirt in a pattern matching contest? This one is much, much better for our purposes. Original thread with all contest entries and Manton's honorable mentions. Voting ends three days from now, which is around 7:30 PM EST on Thursday. Thanks to all the contestants for participating. The winner will receive any pocket square or cuff link of his choice from Kent Wang. First through third place will also select an item each from edmorel's lot of Roda pocket squares, ties, shirts and Pantherella socks. First place will get first pick, and so on. Therefore the big winner will receive two prizes, while second and third will each receive consolation prizes of their choosing. Consolation prizes are provided by the generosity of edmorel and LSeca.
