Where can you see Udeshi and RJ ties? Actually a couple of the Seasick and Squirm pocket squares are alright.

Seems the clear consensus here is for T & A and Drakes. I personally like the T & A ties alot. Their weight and heft is excellent. They seem pretty durable as well. Very little experience with the Drakes ties but they are about equal in my mind.

Earlier in the thread ... someone (RJman?) mentioned that Budd do not.

Edit: Actually he said they are machine made ... so perhaps they do.

But it's the waistcoats that are their raison d'etre.

RJ is elliptical. When he says something is "machine" made, he might mean machine, or he might mean robot whore.

I heard that Budd was stocking some great ties last year under their name made up from Evans/Adamley faux Madder, and was wondering about those. And surely, the sized formal bows are in house still.

^Ah, bow ties.
Where can i get sized bow ties, that aren't miserably mean in width and height (in London)?

How do British ties knot in comparison to Italian.

There's no constant - some of my T&A ties have a decent knot some a bit thin, ditto my Italian ties.
