TieBar
Has anybody tried ties from the tiebar.com? How is the quality? I've seen some good reviews online but $15 for a tie is too cheap

I've heard good things about TieBar, but I don't know much. Either way, I think this might merit my $.02.
Don't mistake "expensive" for "better". It's true that you get what you pay for in most cases, but the truth is that nobody looks at the back of your tie to determine if it's a good tie. And if someone does, that person's contempt isn't worth your time. If it looks nice and feels nice, then it is fine, since ties are mainly about accentuation and style.
If you can get away with spending $15 on a tie while still appearing professional (read: not standing out in the bad way) then you absolutely should. The extra $45 to $150 you'd spend on an alternative could be much better spent.
Lol Yale hand shake
knit ties are very good quality for the price. The tie bars themselves are the best. Not even worth buying anyother name unless youre a tiny dicked pretentious douche (think those assholes with the LV clips).
The ties themselves are decent overall but great for the 15 bucks you spend. Ive ordered lots of stuff from there and Im a happy customer.
There best product? Definately the cotton and linen pocket squares.
@ttghalust: What are your thoughts on their hot dot ties? I've been looking at them for a while. I have a navy pin dot tie from them already.
The ties are fine for the price and perfectly acceptable. Will they last forever? No. Will most people (re: 99.9%) notice that its a cheap tie? No. Could someone who knows ties tell the difference between Tie Bar vs. a much higher quality (Kiton, Borrelli, Sam Hober, Charvet, etc.)? Absolutely.
The Tie Bar rocks. I wear ties pretty rarely (a few times a year) and I see it as an opportunity to wear something forward and new. For the 15 bucks I just buy a new tie for each occasion.
id cop something else man
I have plenty of Tie Bar ties. I'm a consultant and have to wear a suit and tie on certain client engagements (usually when I'm at a bank client). The low price point means I don't have to repeat my ties too often and nobody realizes the difference. I also tend to purchase trendier ties from Tie Bar because I won't care as much when GQ tells me next month that the tie they said was in style last month is now out of style. Spend your money on a quality suit, not a tie that costs $100 just because it has a brand name on the back where no one can even see it.
@cvsdjs: This is true. $100 ties aren't worth it and the silk that goes into it is marked up 1000+% by the time it is imported to the States and sold in a high end store. I know an FA who used to work for a department store chain and he flat out said that ties are the biggest ripoff: Only about 3 bucks worth of silk from Italy and they mark it to around 100 bucks in the "high end" stores i.e. Neiman or Saks.
