Regarding the association ties at 17:19 they are still very common in the UK. I tend to see more regimental ties than club ties where I live in Scotland, the most common in my area being Black Watch.

I love ties, it is far to easy to end up with dozens of them. Funny but one of my favourite ties is a bright blue with a pattern wedding style tie, I don't care if people think I have just come form a wedding I like it. Thank you for all the hard work you guys put into your videos it really shows.
I think the tie should be in the iconic bottle green of Fort Belvedere and right beneath the knot could be the Ft. Belvedere logo. The rest could have stripes in ivory or a pale yellow similar to a repp stripe tie.
I was fortunate enough to have had a grandpa with a tie collecting hobby, when he passed he gave me his ties. I now have over 35 ties, about 10 of which are looney tunes ties, these ties are my favorite to look at because they are both goofey and remind me of him.
Got a bit more than thirty ties, and I love every single one of them. Most of them, they were "love at first glance". I saw the tie, was instantly blown away, and bought it. That's how I buy ties. If it doesn't catch my eye and attention immediately, I won't get to like it by staring it for long
Great channel, very accessible for someone like myself who is just beginning an interest in this. Well done to Sven, Preston, Kyle and the rest of the GG team :)
So glad I found this channel and this video in particular- now I know a proper tie I can get for my future husband for our future wedding that doesnt exist yet
Not sure if you’re taking requests over at GG, but I’d love to see a video about plus size men’s fashion - especially RTW. My 265lb self has a hard time finding clothes that fit comfortably! Absolutely love all of your content by the way 🙌🏼
Last fall I decided that I needed a knit tie. I happened to have a shirt which was off white but had a checked pattern in brown, tan, navy, and dark red. This combination works very well with a brown corduroy vest and a brown tweed sport coat, and tan corduroy trousers. I think it's a great fall outfit. Now to find a nice pocket square to go with the jacket.
How many do I own? Almost 70 in silk and also in wool. This doesn't include cravats and bow ties. And the funniest is I am one of the seldom few who wears a tie.
Hey love the content, It would be awesome if you guys could review/go over the black tie outfit you guys often use in background display. (the one with the detachable wing collar and white tie shirt)
I love those stripped grenadine ties from Fort Belvedere like the one Preston is wearing. They're incredibly beautiful and designed exactly right like many of their other ties. It's not something I can get myself right now, but maybe one day.
As far as I'm aware, you mentioned them in passing a couple of years ago, but would you care to expand on bolo ties sometimes? I'm fascinated by this piece of Americana, and I think they can be pulled off (sorry) better than novelty or even graphic ties.
A Gentleman's Gazette tie you should make it similar to Fort Belvedere colours. A British racing green colour with like silver/light grey stripes and a little GG with channel icon at the bottom or something would look mint.
Nice idea! It sounds like we're pretty close with this one? shop.gentlemansgazette.com/accessories/ties/cashmere-wool-grenadine-tie-in-dark-green-mid-gray-off-white-stripe-fort-belvedere?
This may be a "dumb" question, but where do tie patterns come from? Tie patterns intrigue me because they are so various and seemingly random. I've never seen two of the same tie patterns, not speaking of popular weaves, so they're kind of like works of art.
Not a dumb question at all! When talking about irregular tie patterns (i.e. not stripes), the designs can come from pretty much anywhere. If it can be thought of, you can put it on a tie!
I do love men's ties! I sell pre-owned, mostly classic menswear style ties in my Ebay store, and it's always a fun challenge to find great ties in the wild that are in excellent condition. This is a great video! Thank you Preston, Raphael, et al! Have a wonderful week! Lisa
Most times I do not need a "formal" tie, I need an elegant and outstanding tie. Many of my ties are Italian silk ones with an unusual elegant pattern, such as Pancaldi, Leonard, etc. Unlike many or most of the ties on this page, all of mine always get an enthusiastic compliment from the women who see it.
For whatever reason I balk at any rough knit ties or any kind. I am considering a Navy Grenadine due to all the recommendations on the net, but it has to be "fina" for me to even consider buying it. Edit - as I review my ties from over 15-20 years ago, all handmade 100% silk in conservative patterns, it appears that any kind of sheen seems to out of fashion in favor of muted weaves.
Floral ties are great, i constantly get compliments for mines ! Granted some of them are in the ''wow cool a guy is defying gender norm and being feminine'' category of ''compliment'' but that's what we in the business call a detail.
Im partial to vintage ties significantly shorter than new ones with bold but abstract patterns..ameoba pattern etc. I wish ties like this were still easily available.
*WHEN I MOVED HOUSE* I accidentally threw away an entire black trash bag of ties thinking it was the bag of trash bags - 2 months later I found a bag of trash bags in the closet. Over 200 ties - 25 years of collecting - Channel - Harvey Nicks - Zegner - Donahue - Fermagio - Brioni - Dunhill - Canali - YSL - Cucinelli + lots of rare vintage ties At least $20k Somewhere in Bulgaria is a bag of $20k of ties in a landfill AAAGGGGHHHH - its not the money - almost everyone was bought second-hand, I LIKED EVERY ONE
Gee, i have a dozen ties and think that is probably more than i need. when i testify in court, i wear a hermes or dior tie. I might wear a tie at a restaurant but only a very conservative one else, I will go without one. Back in the 80s when I bought these ties, i don't think that counterfeits existed.
I am probably way too late, but in case, somebody will still be reading this: The light blue flower tie, I believe Rafael is wearing @32 sec of the video, I have not been able to find that one in your shop. Any remeberance, where this may have been bought? Edit: And while we're at it (if we are), the same question goes for the yellow tie @11:22 / 14:00. I believe, both are the same. I have never really been a die hard tie guy, but those are fantastic and have the potential to change my opinion on this quite strongly.
In the beginning they used pink for both genders but as always it doesn't stay the same. I think I read it somewhere you can research it. I'm female and your selection is spot on. Don't laundry your ties use a dry cleaner I know they're expensive but do you really want a warped tie
The tie should have a simple simbol that represents the brand (I would say a double G because of the name or just the word Gazette written in a weird way).
Liebe deutsche Gentlemans, wo kauft ihr eure Kleidung? Ich bin grade am Anfang mir klassische Outfits zusammenzustellen und so begeistert von den Videos, kann aber schwierig diese Kleidung finden, insbesondere Hosen und Anzüge im klassischen Schnitt. Gibt es hier Erfahrungen oder Empfehlungen?
It may have more to do with the articles of clothing that are actually available in those colors. You may be able to find a plumb/aubergine colored suit or jacket that doesn't make you look like The Joker, but they are certainly less common than other colors. A pastel yellow jacket is certainly in the cards for spring/summer if you're of a bold nature. But wearing it with a purple tie may make it look like you're attending an Easter egg hunt. Of course, shades of tan, straw and mustard are in the yellow family and could certainly pair with purples like plumb, lilac or violet. I'm sure that those with a better eye than me can find a combination that suits them well, and I salute anyone who can pull it off.
How many total? 108 How many of the 12? If you count a Coral as "Orange," 8. Never gonna get a Knit Tie, never thought to get an Ivory Grenadine tie, and don't have any Wool Ties.
I thought for sure when you mentioned the Repp ties for academia, you were gong to show the 4 Hogwarts house ties (Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin)
A bunch, but few long enough. I have a large neck and a long torso. All of my normal ties look like bolo ties on me. I have a handful of extra long ties that come close to fitting.
Thank you for great insight of ties. I need some help; what colour tie I should wear with a charcoal black jacket, light blue shirt and light grey trousers?
There's a difference between Gawdy and Gosh and not gosh gally gee. Is Orange is a autumn color as long as I don't see any combination of orange and blue entwined with each other 🤦🏻♀️🤢🤮. My preference is Crimson and white can you guess which college football team I like it's not Ohio state.

Well, in the 80s, the red Power Tie was supplanted a bit by the yellow ones that became ubiquitous, but yellow can still work as a fun nautical highlight.
Ties are extremely unprofessional. They’re a strong indication of idiocy considering how easy it is to be choked out while wearing one. When I interview men for my company, the ones wearing ties are the first to be crossed off. Demonstrates to me a lack of street smarts. Lack of wisdom. Shows me they are good at wasting money, too.

Big respect for saying that there are a lot of other tie brands and not exclusively Fort Belvedere!
