TweedyProf submitted a new listing:

TweedProf's Tie Closet Cleanout - Great ties from Cappelli, Drake's, Vanda and Sozzie

I've exceeded my limit of 20 ties per FW or SS season so I've had to choose a few to let go. I would gladly keep all of these, but I'm over the limit.

Highest quality ties from the best makers, worn at most 5 times but most, less (a couple). All in as new condition, well taken care of from a clean home, no pets or smokers.

Cappellis are 8.5 cm wide except the raw silk which is 8cm, Vanda is 9cm, Drake's 8cm and the Sozzie is 8cm. Lengths vary from 57 to 60 inches but all tie effectively...

Hello,

What is the length measurement on the Vanda GunClub?

I'll have to check, but I believe that Vanda consistently makes their ties the same length (whatever is on their website) so probably 58" if memory serves me correctly.

Are you still interested in the tie? If so, I will check.

Ok, I've looked it over and measured.

It's a six-fold handrolled, 3.5x58 inch tie. Wool but I would actually be fine wearing it in the spring too. It's still rather light and airy as Vandas are, unlined as far as I can tell but don't quote me on that.

Two Drake's noted as sold above are on hold (green with navy/white stripe and burgundy repp grenadine). If the sale falls through (international shipping complications) they will be made available again. I will update. If interested let me know, and I will put you in the queue.
