Just got shipping notification from SS! Although, I send it to a forum member and he will ship them to me in Mexico. So, it will be a long wait hehe.

They just cancelled my La Spalla outlet order--but for the inconvenience I got a 15 USD gift card. Lol thanks
How good are they really? I’ve been eying then for a while but don’t know if I can justify the price without any experience
I don't know if I agree across the board. Last outlet, I went in with Viral on a few ties. 1 navy 7 fold, 1 green cashmere and 1 cotton/linen. The staple is great feeling silk, the cashmere nice and robust and and the cotton feels like it was made in the same factory as my cotton/linen formicola and isaia ties. I don't think mine are as lifeless as you've experienced.I am not a fan of super saturated ties either; I honestly assumed that kind of thing to be the preserve of American politicians. As a rule I prefer more muted tones. The problem I have with SuSu ties is that they feel cheap. The lining is of a very low quality, so they just hang there like a dead fish, and rarely do they achieve a decent knot. That's a hard pass.
@MajorDash I wouldn't pay 150 for a single tie either. But if a €150 tie was on sale for €80, I'd buy that (I bought this a few days ago). I realise no one else can tell the difference, but most people can't tell the difference between a cheap department store suit or a Kiton either.

It's like buying a scratch-off lotto ticket. If you win, you just scored a brand new-ish, 2 season old quality tie!I've read from multiple sources that it really is the luck of the draw. The ties I bought from them were completely worthless. Obviously you chose... wisely, because many of their ties have a lot of synthetic fibres and cheap carpeting for interlining. They definitely skimp on materials and construction where they can. For 10USD you could do a lot worse, however. But once you've handled a few higher quality ties, it is hard to go back.
EU outlet is supposed to open on the 14th in the morning and I don’t think they deliver to Sweden.
If I’m not mistaken it’s for Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.
@cvb1 You can access other sites, but they won't deliver to a Swedish address.
You will get access, be able to browse the collection and even add items to your shopping bag. But then when the time comes to check them out, you will get the message "Unfortunately these items cannot be delivered to this address". They are such teases.
