I have a couple bespoke Marinella neckties. Nice, but, in retrospect, an expensive over-indulgence.

Re: Bespoke Ties...
Custom ties are a great idea. Tailored clothes are leaving the realm of "clothes" and entering the world of connoisseur, piece goods, which is one step (albeit one very large step) away from costume.

We should plug, yet again, Mr. Hober, whose flexibility and attention to customer service make him one of a kind....

Sam Hober ties are amazing and quite a value at $120.

Re: Bespoke Ties...
Gentlemen,
Thank you for your kind words.
We actually have a wide range of prices with a standard length and 3-fold construction bespoke English woven tie being around $75.
6-folds and 7-folds cost more because of the extra time and silk.
We weave many of our own silks which helps us to keep our costs down.
