Re: Ivy League style for today
yes, patch pockets are nice but natural shoulders and a close fit around the neck are the most important criteria for me ......

Do you know what a Palmist once said to me? She said: will you let go!

Re: Ivy League style for today
Most ties run out at 57", a few makers offer alternative lengths of 54" or 61" for taller or shorter customers, although this is less common now than it was in days of yore. As I'm of average height most ties are okay for me. But I have had a 61" tie, that I was particularly fond of, cut down by an alterations tailor.
That's a classic tweed, rep tie, OCBD combo Walker, shoes and trousers look good too.

Re: Ivy League style for today
you should be able to adjust the tie so that it bottoms out where you want it to before knotting it ... or just tie a fatter knot like a Windsor, and pull it tight alright?
this has always worked for me .... just pulled out a navy and silver J. Press Burlington knot circa 1987, 57 inches, standard, hits me right, I'm like 5'9"
glad to be able to participate in discussions like these even though I had to dress way way down today
black/orange Incontinence pants University of Miami t-shirt, brown Levi's cord shorts, blue/blue ribbon/webbing C-buckle sailfish motif belt, brown grosgrain ribbon rubber flip-flops, yellow-lensed Oakleys
couldn't wait to get home and change into something more casual after the game though
