Green, plain-colored ties are just as versatile as burgundy ones with the added advantage of being just a bit less common. Works just as well with a classic combination of blue jacket, grey pants, white/pink striped shirt, and suede loafers as with a brown glen check suit, , and full brogues.
In the heart of the Italian silk industry, Como, lies one of the oldest silk weavers in Europe. Founded in mid-19th-century, at first as a supplier of silk for furnishings and clothing, they began to make silk for ties when it took its modern shape at the beginning of the 20th century. To this day, a lot of historic, wooden looms are in use, which have not been produced in decades. But there is no substitute for them: our popular grenadine silk is woven on them, for example. We just love this heritage of Italian craftsmanship and we do our best to keep those traditions alive.
