I don't get it. But no.Originally Posted by Manton
Well, don't worry.
I have one of those Rubinacci pour Carlyle unlined seven-folds, but I've been too scared to wear it.

I am trying to avoid that at all cost.
Once Foo told me about what happened to his in the bathroom, I discontinued wearing neckties in the shower.

I've worn my Rubinacci ties. Just do it. You'll be OK.Originally Posted by Manton
Mine are not 7-fold though. I don't know if that changes the equation.
Oh, I've had the 3-folds for years...back from when Louis carried them in large numbers.
The 7-fold Rubinacci are completely and utterly different beasts...they are unlike any necktie that I have ever seen.

You and Foo are slightly more anal than I am. My ties are generally slightly wrinkled. I deal with it.

You never did give your appraisal of the quality versus the seventy five other brands you have carefully inspected. How does it stack up?

It's the post-shower wearing that is the most critical.

Matt, the condition of this tie would make you cry for Mother Napoli.

Pics?Originally Posted by Connemara
Unfortunately, no. It makes me sad to even look. But to sum up: the original crease of the tie is gone, so that it is now folded asymmetrically, and the area that normally forms the knot is crinkled so badly that the tie won't lie flat anymore.
