Tie collections this season.
Shibumi rocking it for me this season, they seem to have been my first port of call for a while. Liking Drakes but way too much dough to get one made in a 160x90. Had one knocked up in the summer and it cost 179 sniffs plus post and duty. Couldn't fault the service and tie though. Vanda collection looks nice but they don't seem to have added much, never tried em. Liking VM but again a tad to much price wise for me to have made in a length to suit, (their BD shirts look ace BTW). So Shibumi remain first choice for me (Their doing a suberb collar on their BDs also). Drived in on one of these badboys...

And really had to hold myself in check not to go overboard with buying more...

Re: Tie collections this season.
For some reason, I have an aversion to buying new ties, because I think they're overpriced. I've bought a few ties new when they were something especially unique, but my first port of call for a tie is eBay. I've bought 95% of my ties (BB Makers, Rooster, Gant, J. Press, Robert Talbott, et al) for <$10 from one eBay vendor.
