re: Thomas Pink
Nice pic jporos!
I'm a fan of Thomas Pink, they have a boutique at the Palazzo/Venetian in Vegas where I've bought some stuff. Ever buy their pocket squares or handkerchief? I saw some patterns that looked really nice, but don't really use them.

A tie is a tie but not a tie
A tie is a tie, but not a tie. The blunt man sees a tie as part of a uniform. The "sophisticated" / "refined" gentleman sees a tie as an extension of his moods & personality. Much like the lay man wears a Casio and is totally fine with the utilitarian pur...
My Fetish
Part of my wardrobe Passed down from an old mentor Bought after a long wait...due to love for Henri Matisse Paintings A tie afficionados favourite...bought out of curiosity for the quality a gift from my girlfriend..she felt it was expensive but I liked i...
I have this problem too....
Even though these days I don't wear ties as often I still like buying neckties. Been buying some nice 7-fold ones lately. Have you looked at Bulgari ties? They're great, very nice materials, colors and patterns, and well crafted. Here;s a recent pic from ...
I am disappointed...
no Patek Philippe tie included? It is a must for a watch collector! beautiful selection! erich
Hello Mr Ma
Colourful high risk "head on chopping board" life is good. A fine line between triumph and disaster!
Black tie only.
Or almost: On a clear blue shirt / clear grey suit, or on a white shirt, nothing goes better. I may have 6 different black ties. And only 3 or 4 different colors. Best, Bond, Nicolas Bond. This message has been edited by amanico on 2011-04-29 10:40:50
50% of the time I wear plain ties, 50% striped ties.
Mostly blue (I often wear a black or a blue suit). The black ties only with a white shirt for me. The brown ties only when I wear a chocolate suit. I hate green, yellow, red, pink ties. But sometimes, I like a subtle touch of originality, I will take some...
you gotta read this, Xavier
http://www.mensflair.com/news/tie-stereotypes.php It's an psycho-analysis of tie preferences. But what if one likes them all?...
I like my ties bright colored
and even wear a bright pink tie sometimes (I believe patrick_y gave me that tie as a bday gift). Cheers, Anthony
I like ties as well
Hi Mike, Nice collection of ties you have there. I wear a suit and tie to work every day, but I don't mind and actually prefer having this in a business environment. I tend to favor more conservative ties in shades of blue. My favorite is a light blue one...
They are great ties indeed!
Great seven fold ties! I like those colors and patterns, good taste!
Thanks Patrick
Do you wear ties to work? Was wondering if you prefer more conservative patterns or something wilder. It will be interesting to see what color and styles of ties that people will wear to the gala dinner at IGOTT2. Maybe with your new camera you can do a p...
Ties ties ties... You tell me...
I do wear ties to work, every day. Personally, I'm not sure if I'm wearing something conservative or wild. I would say that I have more brighter colors than anything else as I try to make something stand out. I even have a few bow ties. I'm not certain if...
re: You tell me
No reason not to bring the Nikon DSLR, lots of photo ops in Vegas so it'll be worth it to bring the D700 along. -MW
very cultured
I like the 7 fold tie, and the hue of the blue. You knot well, and are wearing my favourite watch too. I think we will get along very well in real life..
I think we'd get along really well too
Hi Mike, Thanks. Looking forward to meeting you one day at a PuristS GTG. Regards, ED-209
I love the idea and fashion of a nice tie...
...much better than actually wearing one. Us art types can get away with it, but I do rise to occasion when necessary. Always felt they would eventually cause impotence. Of course for many it's more of a required uniform for many professions, so figuring ...
Well said!
A tie is quite like the function-less relic of the past, back then, the cravat was actually used to wipe sweat and keep the collar closed. Now, it's become more of a peacock's feather.
Delivery just arrived....
Great post Cookies! The package I ordered just showed up from Neiman's but here are my two current favorite ties to wear: Yep, yellow is my favorite color....... Been wearing lots of pink ties lately......... Just arrived in today, thanks UPS guy! Good ev...
I didn't know about the Isaia
I didn't realize that Neiman Marcus carries Isaia. Interesting.... Regards, ED-209
Yep, Barney's and Bergdorf Goodman too...
Not sure all NM's carries Isaia or if they still do. -MW
well you know me....
anything yellow will catch my eye. I've always liked Brioni but the Kiton and Bulgari ties are amazing. -MW
When I wear a really nice tie
it just seems to catch the falling food at lunch. So much for the nice tie. JerryW
I 2nd that
Precautions need to be taken, such as tucking the tie into the shirt when eating. I don't use tie pins or clips because they block the flow of tie with movements that are so natural and elegant!
Wore this Thomas Pink tie today...
More of a wrist scan than a tie shot, but I think you get the picture. I am the "design tie" guy......

+1 on Thomas Pink ties
I like Thomas Pink ties too. Similar to DRMW, I picked these up at the Venetian/Palazzo Las Vegas boutique: Regards, ED-209...
Here are some better photos...
my two Thomas Pink ties, also a Gene Meyer tie. Front and ... back. The lining is one of the best parts of this tie....
nice ties u have there
The polka dots on the lining of the last pic, are beautiful. Kinda reminds me of one I saw online on Turnbull&Asser. Can never have enough ties...
Mike, there is a lot of ties you got there..
..I had a problem as upon graduation, i had bought myself a few nice ties, i think 2 from Hilfiger while the other is a Paul Smith.. I never got to wear them on daily basis although my career requires me to wear one but my employer requires me to wear the...
nothing beats inheriting a tie
The heritage, the moments,all locked into the threads. I think I will like the Hilfiger tie with the stripes on it. Looks very ivy-league.
my humble ties..
left and right bought for my wedding.. I think my Paul Smith with my younger sibling.. the aged Hilfiger cannot be worn anymore.. will be thrown away.....
You want 'heritage', Mike?...
Ok, here's heritage for you! These samples from the tie rack are all Italian silk by "Leonard" of Paris: as you can see, a brand not known for its subdued and muted patterns. There was a time in the dim dark past when these were almost considered the heig...
I'd wear them
With a sharply cut mcqueen shirt. We don't find ties of these patterns anymore. As for the stereotype, this is my impression: a self-made self-assuring avante garde renown creative hairstylist the celebs go to. He eats little and drinks a lot of coffee to...
Cravate Quartre Temp
One tie four colors--still trying to figure out how to get the color I want! A most interesting piece....
