Has anyone seen gray flannel bowties for sale? I looked in new York, but none of the stores (including cucinelli, which is where I got the idea in a gq pic ) had them.

Maybe edmorel can have one made if he's got some extra fabric?

EDIT: Link here

My memory may be failing me, but didn't Anthony Kirby once sell wool bowties? That's of little use, though, since his enterprise seems to be defunct.

I checked the cordial churchman, nice stuff but no dice. If only Sam Hober did custom bowties, might be able to score one before the holidays-- in the meantime, any other online source ideas welcome!

There is a french firm with an online presence that does bow ties in unusual shapes and perhaps fabrications as well.

The name is butterfly or bow tie in French.

Le Noeud Papillon. And they're Australian.

Although I haven't seen anything other than silks on their website.
