Paul Smith silk knitted ties

If you want something a little more upmarket than vintage polyester knitted ties (and you have money to spare), you could invest in a Paul Smith silk knitted tie.

Choose from stripes or spots in various colours, all with a 5cm width and made of 100 per cent knitted silk, with a lining of silk in the colour of your chosen tie.

Italian made, each one will cost you £69. Alternatively, if you're on a budget, we're currently clearing out both vintage and knitted ties in batches for basement prices.
