Sadly, mostly girls compliment me when I wear Burberry ties (striped b/c Novacheck is too loud). No one notices the Drakes, RLPL, Isaia, TF, etc.

Any of my ties with animals on them, and the compliments come from women.

Over the years I have found that the ties that have bright colors or patterns get the most compliments. However, I rarely wear them anymore and prefer the more subtle colors and textures. I think they compliment the entire outfit (suit, shirt, shoes, etc.) much more and I get the "you look nice" compliment instead of the "I like your tie."

The ol' ketchup and mustard repp. Having neither a red nor a yellow suit, it goes with everything in my closet.
