^^^ Gorgeous!

Newcomer · May 28, 2011

Some of the highlights:

From L-R: Rubinacci, Panta Green Grenadine Garza Fina, Panta Navy Shantung, Brioni Navy Herringbone, Drakes Navy Twill, Drakes Wine Pindot, Drakes Green Shantung Stripe, RLPL Navy Sevenfold Navy with White Squares, Drakes Pacific Blue Grenadine. The devil is in the details...

Panta Navy Shantung Closeup:

Shameless Panta Promo:

These are the highlights from the soporific collection. The first day with the new camera! Pretty exciting...

The Panta shantung is some seriously sweet tie Appreciation.

Newcomer · May 28, 2011

I wholeheartedly concur Parker. And as a bonus, I thought I would include a Drakes v. Panta Shantung-off, if you will:

Ed's Shantung really is quite different from Drakes'. They are completely different animals from up close. With that said, however, I can tie a MUCH better knot with Ed's than with my Drakes Shantung.

Pardon my asking, but which swatch is this? Looks gorgeous. I want to order it for myself.

Both Panta's look great. (Is there a website yet?)

Looking for a tie to go with this cotton suit:

Requirements: summery fabric, plain (one colour, not blue/navy, nothing wild), 8 cm wide, beautiful. Any recommendations?

This is the Macclesfield Silk Tie #85. It looks a bit darker IRL than on the photo.

Ed can correct me if I am wrong, but those two ties are made of completely different silks. The Drakes is a true shantung, and Eds is a raw silk, not a true shantung. It has the slubbiness of the shantung on more of a woven texture.

Both are only 7cm though.

Have you checked the Carlo riva cotton ties that Sam Hober has ?

Thanks, Kaplan. The second one in grey (and 8 cm) would be nice. I don't like the "cut-off"-variety". What do you think of this one: Charcoal Gray/Silver Grenadine Fina Silk Tie - Sam Hober

3,75" (9,5 cm?), hm...

No, but going to, thanks. Are they easy to tie? Edit: just checked. They all seem to be patterned.

I don't think the width is an issue with Hober, don't you just order it the way you want it? Either way, I'm not a fan of silvery ties and think it may be too formal looking for a cotton suit? But I like the garza fina.
