"There are very few ties that would work as well on Cary Grant as they would on the Beatles. But the black silk knit does, because it's both dressy and casual. It's always appropriate, whether you're dressing up in a gray wool suit with a crisp white dress shirt or going for a more sporty-stylish vibe and wearing it over a chambray denim shirt. We consider it the go-to seasonless tie; it adds lift to whatever you're wearing, no matter who you are."

Lisa Cohen, GQ

A great reason to buy a silk knit tie, other than to infuse a bit of personality into your dress, is that they’re all of a sudden widely available and generally inexpensive. You can track them down at Lands End, J. Crew, Ralph Lauren, Thomas Pink or (although definitely the bank-breaker of the bunch), Battistoni. The prices are generally around $50, which is more than reasonable for a stylish tie. So, for those out there who are understandably a bit concerned about showing personality through their clothes because they are unsure of how to do so, or are concerned about dressing conservatively, here’s the perfect antidote. Enjoy.
