You and me both, brother. Just ordered several fabric swatches. It's only a matter of time now until the ****** and pillaging of my wallet begins.

My Hober ties are easily my favorites.

Cross-posted from soporific thread--midnight navy and bright navy repp twill solids in unlined, untipped, true 7-fold construction.

lovely. however, the need for swatches is apparent. the colors are very different from hober's site.

Sorry for the iPhone photos.

Thank you.
Awesome tie.

I like the self-tipping.

ThinkDerm · May 26, 2011

one question for hober - why does borrelli do their 7 fold unlined horizontally and you do it diagonally?

Navi · May 26, 2011

Diagonally looks better. Can't really tell unless you're up close but it's a nice touch.

David, haven't had the chance to try any of your ties yet but I look forward to when I can. Your tutorials for tie-making, PS making etc are hugely helpful! Really great stuff. Some of the neat patterns you make are drool worthy... Actually pretty much everything you make is drool worthy!

I hate clicking on this thread. There is so much want. I've been recommending David for years now based on things like this alone. Why dont I own a Hober yet?

I think I need to get the ball rolling here.
