Totally agreed on the quality of Vanda. I like how they tie / drape. And they’re much lighter / airy than others which I like. It’s like I’m knotting a loose scarf around my neck vs being choked. There are a few other makers I like a lot. But vandas are outstandingOne or two past a few, no doubt. @gshen might have a tally somewhere
Realistically, at this point, I have ZERO need of another tie for as long as I live. Heck, I could probably eliminate 95% of the current selection and still tick all the "proper" boxes for tie varietals.
Not to say I won't accumulate more, obviously (this is SF, after all), but I really have no desire to search out other options. Vanda's quality is the best I've seen/handled (I know the lack of a back blade keeper is a nonstarter for some lol), and I really appreciate the intimate connection I have in communication with G&D. Nice sense of old world romance to it, similar to a bespoke tailor, no doubt.
TLDR; quite a few haha
Add Vanda shantungs to your collection. Fabric plays so well with the unlined makeup.

I’m thinking I need to place another order but idk what to order. I wanted to order a navy grenadine gorza or piccolo but they’re all sold out (I have a cashmere silk grenadine, so it’s not necessary, I suppose).
What would yall order if placing a new order? I wear pretty conservative ties.
I should also add, I wear neckties for work and am in a hot climate environment
Buy them all problem solvedWant to try something with more texture.
I don't have any seersucker, so i want to try that, but i prefer shantung.
What do you guys prefer if you have to choose between these 3?
Or do you recommend something else?
