I've been noticing some Calvin Klein slim ties in stores recently. What do you all think about the look of these ties? I'm about 5'8" and 160 lbs. so I don't think they'd look too weird on me. Just want to get some opinions. Thanks!

Ive seen these in many department store and personally the quality is junk. They are 2.5in width. They look very cheap.

I have 3-4 that I've picked up over time, and I've found them to be decent quality (for what I paid) and the 2.5" is ideal for my body type. People will probably slam them here since they're not made by hand by old ladies in Napoli, but I've gotten used to priss fest here. I do NOT, however, think they're worth $50, I've found all of mine at places like Burlington Coat Factory or TJ Maxx for $15-20 each.

I have seen some of the here and silk was top notch, I guess the maker is the same as the Dolce Y gabanna. as they looked same but 60 euros instead of 120.

Perhaps are not the cheapo ones as the other guy says... As it were top notch!

also, the particular line of Calvin Klein can make a huge difference. Calvin Klein vs. Calvin Klein Collection is like night and day.

i've got i think 4 of these i think. 3 actually look very good but one is way too thin and looks relatively cheap now. still, they look twice as expensive as what i paid, and they have a bit of the thin simple mad men aesthetic, so i can't complain about them.
