Extra Long Vintage Hawaiian Style Navy and Tan Stripe Necktie by Damon

When I pulled this one out I wondered why I’d never seen Daddy wear this tie. Then when I measured I realized why; it’s an extra long! It’s a full 65 inches long! The last time I saw Daddy wear and extra long tie he had to do a Windsor and a Half Knot, but I digress…

This extra long tie was made by Damon for The Hub Ltd. (With a few locations in the North Carolina area. They’re still around by the way!) It’s a wide navy and tan stripe with a large tan floral stripe between the colors. It’s almost like a muted Hawaiian pattern.

It was an expensive tie back in the day, and it still sports the $7.50 price tag on the small end. Of course the little tag says its “imported texturized polyester” but the tag next to the Damon tag says “all silk”. Talk about confusion! It’s this pup’s professional opinion that it’s polyester though. There are no stains or pulls on the tie. It’s a super long 65 inches, which almost offsets the 4 inch width.

If this tie makes your tail wag like it did mine, you can get it over at my tie club on Etsy!

Vintage Striped Countess Mara

Daddy seems to always go for his striped Countess Mara ties when he’s not sure what to wear. This time it’s a brown, tan, and deep navy striped tie from Eddie Williams Man’s Shop in Arlington, Texas. The tie may date back to the 50s, but believe it or not, The Man’s Shop is still around!

Pastel Countess Mara

Daddy wore this dandy of a combination to work today. It’s a pastel striped Countess Mara tie, and he’s paired it with a blue and white striped Cremieux dress shirt with white club collar. I think it looks pretty dandy.

It’s a shame that he won’t leave it on when he takes me out for walkies later…

Brooks Brothers Tie of the Month Club

Daddy taught me that sometimes the best tie is a classic tie from a classic maker. Then he told me that he always liked to reach for a Brooks Brothers tie when he needed a classic, undated look. If you’re a fan of the classic gentleman’s look, then you’ll love my Brooks Brothers tie of the month club! Each month I’ll dig through Daddy’s closet and pull out another Brooks Brothers tie to send you. Because I’m such a good pup, I’ll even make sure there’s no coffee stains on them!

Each Month you’ll receive another vintage Brooks Brothers tie. I have all sorts of colors and patterns houses to dig through, so tell me what kind of fashion you like! I’ve pulled stripes and patterns in all sorts of colors out of Daddy’s closet in the past, so who knows what I’ll fetch for you!

Brooks Brothers Three Month Tie of the Month Club

Vintage Gold Tie with Striped Shirt

Sometimes Daddy just puts together a really cool looking combination, and I figured I should post some of them here as fashion tips for people who don’t have a friendly pup like me to help pick out their ties in the morning.

This time my Daddy took a gold tie with a starburst-like pattern on it and paired it with a vintage English blue and white stripe shirt. He really likes the shirt because the stripes go horizontally. I like the tie because it really pops on the shirt and I might try and steal it one day when he’s not looking!

Striped Tie Of The Month Club

Stripes!

Leopards may not change their spots, but a well dressed man like my Daddy will change his stripes on a daily basis. My Daddy may wear a weird pattern one day, and stripes the next, but my Grandpaw wears only striped ties. If you’re like my Grandpaw (or know someone who is) then you’ll love my striped tie of the month club! Each month I’ll dig through Daddy’s closet and pull out another striped tie to send you. Because I’m such a good pup, I’ll even make sure there’s no coffee stains on them!

Each Month you’ll receive another vintage striped tie. I have all sorts of colors and sizes to dig through, so tell me what kind of stripes you like!

  • The first month you’ll receive an introductory letter welcoming you to the club (or as a gift to the club if it’s a gift).
  • Ties are non-returnable, and the subscription may not be cancelled once first shipment is mailed.
  • If you have a special request, let me know and I will do my best to fetch ties meeting those criteria (only blues, no 70s wide ties, make them funky colors, etc…) but I can’t promise. Daddy might wear it the day I’m shipping!
