We're so excited to announce that we have our first four handmade, handsome, cotton, linen and chambray neckties on hand, already in some stores and almost on our site! Like all our products so far, these ties are handmade in Canada by friendly Canadians and will take you from office to evening in style. Measuring 2.75" at their widest point, these materials will look familiar with our Harrison Herringbone, our black and our grey S'n'P linen blend, and our chambray Railway cotton. Our suggested placement is around your neck, but feel free to explore...
Everyone loves travel and everyone loves travel research, so we were thrilled to be interviewed by Air Canada's enRoute Magazine, one of the best in-flight magazines in the world, about what we pack when we go on a trip. In their recurring Leaders of the Pack section, enRoute Magazine interviews a traveler about travel in general and what they like to pack with them. To be honest, it's one of our first reads every issue, so we were so excited to talk about our upcoming trip to Brazil for World Cup and fabric shows. The truth is, we're pretty methodical with our packing, and always try to keep it as light as possible. Thankfully, our men's accessories don't weigh that...
We're thrilled that our bow ties are now available in Portland, Oregon at one of our favorite shops, Woonwinkel! The superstars at Woonwinkel have been open for 3 years now, and have always focused on well made, handcrafted creations made by independent designers and small companies.
Equally as exciting, Woonwinkel are the first account on the planet to receive items from our brand new Summer Line, including styles you'll come to know as the Harris Chambray, the Summer Sand S'n'P and the new Bike Bow! (Fun fact: Woonwinkel means "home shop" in Dutch.)
We've had the pleasure of knowing, the always well-dressed, quick-witted and polite, Jeff Brodawka for the better part of a decade now. For the first time in that relationship we managed to make record of a recent conversation in his wonderful boutique Brodawka & Friends in Toronto which he opened to the world two years ago. Cursor & Thread: Can I buy you a beverage? What's your first choice? Jeff Brodawka: Espresso - but it would have to be in Italy, so that's on you. C&T: Do you remember where you were the moment you decided to open the first shop? Can you remember the feeling? JB: Yep, I was at a shoe show and paid a visit to the...
We're very excited to be unveiling our Summer 2014 Line of Bow Ties very soon. We've got new materials, patterns and origins coming to you, all perfect for the easy days of summer. One of the double sided bows that we're particularly excited about is going to give you the option of material as well as pattern, featuring organic cotton on one side and a casual linen blend on the other. As with all our ties, these will be self tie for the purist, but will come tied with an adjustable clip if you haven't learnt yet. We hope you like compliments.
