Saint Crispins Mod 566 split toe in bronze goat and 180 degrees norvegese welt. More Italian than the Italians! Thanks @Leaves :)

Patrick: great selections on the new Cappelli ties in the store! :slayer:

One thought: perhaps a little shorter for ties? As trouser rise rises, it seems that 57 inches, maybe 58 is a sweet spot. Of course, this will differ from individual to individual, but might 59 be on the long side, especially for silk? Or perhaps Swedes are taller than the rest of us? :satisfied:

Swedish men tops out at an average height of 182 CM, or ~6ft, according to my extremely reliable Wikipedia source.

I'm 6'6" so can't really understand the feedback here @TweedyProf :p

I think the length is great (although for myself, they are actually too short). If need be, just do a double four-in-hand, makes for a more masculine knot.

Shout out to @Shawl Lapel for originally coming up with the “Gatoraide” name over a year ago. Funny how the name still lives on!
