SELVEDGE DENIM NECKTIES | BY HEPVILLE CUSTOM CLOTHING

as you know i am a fan of bow-ties. 2 months ago i bought the first neckties ever. both patterned: one camo and one with anchors – what else –, i learnt how to tie the “AMERICAN” way and just some days later i discovered HEPVILLE’s DENIM SELVEDGE NECKTIES at facebook. it took me 3 weeks more to think about if these are must-haves. and indeed they are. each necktie is made of 8oz. selvedge denim, has a loop strap with selvedge details, are 57 inch/144 cm long and 2 9/16 inch/6,5 cm wide at the end. they are hand sewn shut with a hidden slip stitch. the blue one has white and red selvedge at both ends, the khaki beige and green neckties have white selvedge at the ends. for sure this stuff is handmade in germany by BELA the man behind HEPVILLE CUSTOM CLOTHING. check his ETSY shop there is much more great stuff like caps, vests f.ex. pics | LTG

10 MUST-HAVE-X-MAS-PRESENTS | #04 | HANDMADE CROCHETED BOW TIES BY MONSIEUR BOJANGLES

that’s what social media is good for: i met ROY VAN CREIJ at facebook. and some day i saw these handmade crocheted bow ties that he posted. for me as a bow tie lover an absolute must-have. yesterday i got a letter from the netherlands with these two really nice looking and well done pieces for a nice price. it is easy to fit the ties with the two buttons in the back. i think the orange one has to be ordered too! isn’t that a wonderful gift for christmas? beside the bow ties ROY offers different sorts of bracelets at the MONSIEUR BOJANGLES etsy store. pics | LTG

THE BARACUTA BOW TIE | XMAS PRESENT BY KLAUS VOLL c/o VOLLS.DE

yesterday after i finished my weekend run i entered on my way home volls.de to wish KLAUS and his staff IKRAM and BURCU a merry christmas. it was a bit funny, because they looked at me if i was an alien between all the well dressed clients in there. i was sweating so much and wearing my running clothes over all my beloved silver shining NIKE vest. KLAUS gave me the bow tie below as a gift and i was really surprised and happy about this special bow tie. i love bow ties … and KLAUS, as i told you, i will wear it on christmas evening. great stuff: i like the different patterns of the bow tie and the strap – really nice! KLAUS’ shop i left as fast as i could. and don’t miss the great sale @ volls.de . pics | LTG

WOODEN BOW TIES by TWO GUYS’ BOW TIES

as a bow tie lover the stuff off TWO GUYS’ BOW TIES is something special to me. when i first saw the wooden pieces i did not know what to think. on the one hand i thought: great idea and certainly good looking on the other hand i asked me if a wooden bow tie maybe looks to static. but after seeing the sample pics with worn wooden bow ties i must tell you: they look great! there are much more styles at TWO GUYS’ BOW TIES – take a peak! pics | TWO GUYS’ BOW TIES
