Battleship Gray Jacquard Woven Tie

Subtle Sophistication in Battleship Gray

Elevate your Classic-Style ensemble with the understated elegance of a battleship gray silk jacquard tie adorned with light blue and white diamond accents. This tie strikes the perfect balance between refined and distinctive.

The subtle battleship gray hue allows for a wide array of pairing options. For a timeless and sophisticated look, opt for a crisp white dress shirt. This will allow the intricate details of the tie to take center stage while maintaining a clean, polished aesthetic.

Alternatively, a light blue shirt can create a harmonious monochromatic effect, while a pale pink shirt can introduce a touch of warmth and personality.

When selecting a suit or jacket, consider classic shades like navy, charcoal, or even a lighter gray for a tonally coordinated ensemble. These choices will complement the tie without overshadowing its subtle charm.

If you're feeling adventurous, a bolder hue like olive green or burgundy can add a touch of unexpected flair.

To complete your look, a silk pocket square in a complementary shade of blue or white will add a touch of refinement. For a more daring approach, consider a pocket square with a subtle pattern that incorporates elements of both blue and white.

Decadently Woven Jacquard

Jacquard silk is a type of fabric that features intricate patterns woven directly into the material, rather than being printed or dyed on. This is achieved through the use of a special loom called the Jacquard Loom, which allows individual control of each thread. The result is a highly textured and patterned silk with a distinct look and feel.

Jacquard silk is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship and enduring allure of Old World charm. Its intricate patterns, woven directly into the fabric, speak of an era where artistry and attention to detail were paramount. The subtle sheen and luxurious texture of jacquard silk are reminiscent of royal tapestries and opulent attire, making it a timeless treasure in the world of fabrics.

Care

Cleaning

Jacquard neckwear should not be washed immersed in water as doing so can ruin the texture and color of the silk. Instead, spot clean your neckwear using the following steps.

Gently blot any excess substance from the stain with a soft, dry cloth. Do not rub as this can damage the fabric.

Fill a small bowl with lukewarm water and add a few drops of mild detergent specifically designed for silk.

Dip a corner of a clean, white cloth into the solution and test it on a hidden area of the neckwear to ensure it doesn't cause discoloration.

If the test is successful, lightly dab the stained area with the dampened cloth. Use a gentle tapping motion and do not saturate the silk.

Moisten another clean cloth with plain lukewarm water and gently dab the area to remove any soap residue.

Pat the cleaned area with a dry cloth to absorb moisture, then leave the neckwear laid flat on a towel to air dry completely.

If the stain does not respond to the these steps, take the neckwear to a professional dry cleaner experienced in handling silk garments.

Storage

To prevent heavy creasing, never store your neckwear tied or knotted.

Undo the knot and then roll the necktie up in a firm but not excessively tight coil.

Allow it to sit in the coil for about a day to relax wrinkles.

To prevent wrinkles, store your silk neckwear hanging, lying flat, or in a very loose roll.

Sized To Fit You

Almost all retailers sell their ties as one-size-fits-all. A handful offer neckties that are either longer or shorter. At Fort Belvedere, we cater to the needs of every man, whether of modest, average, or above-average height, which is why we are proud to offer neckties in three distinct sizes.

The dimensions of our neckties are proportional to your height.

SHORT: For those who are 5’8” or 173 cm or shorter.

REGULAR: For those between 5'9" or 175 cm and 6'2" or 188 cm.

LONG: For those who are 6’3” or 190 cm or taller.

If you prefer to wear trousers with a higher rise and are in-between sizes, it may be better to size down so that the necktie does not fall below your waistband when tied.

Available Self-Tipped or Untipped

Based on size, some of our ties are Self-Tipped or Untipped.

Self-tipped ties have a lining as part of their tips. The overwhelming majority of tie makers use a less expensive fabric for the tip in a bid to save money, but doing so compromises on the look and the functionality of the tie. All self-tipped Fort Belvedere ties feature a generous piece of lining in the same fabric as the tie’s body for a consistent, quality-made look and feel that is in keeping with traditional self-tipped tie construction.

Fort Belvedere also offers untipped ties in which the tips are carefully hand-rolled for a beautiful look and secure finish that requires more skill to achieve than a self-tipped tie. Because they have less fabric, untipped ties are also lighter. Untipped ties were very popular in the 1930s, and as a tribute to the styling conventions of that era, Fort Belvedere untipped ties have a vintage flared end.
