"Business casual" is a sad state of affairs, isn't it? Legions of zombies wearing a navy polos with khaki Dockers and comfy-looking brown shoes. It's a prison uniform!The antidote? Some days, we yearn for the suit and tie as a staple of American work life. Andrew Payne, founder and tie maker from General Knot & Co., who crafts ties in New England. In his appropriately-named General Knot, we found the perfect partner to craft a great looking tie in the Owen & Fred color way. Made with Japanese Indigo Chambray tipping and tail and an Italian deadstock navy, white, and red houndstooth that Andrew personally sourced, this is a power tie - perhaps the kind of tie you might see a President wear. Our tie is sized 2-7/8" wide x 58" inches long -- aka the ideal tie width and length. A limited edition, a perfect tie.
