Product Insights
The Atkinsons Rugby-Stripe Tie, at 99 CAD, is hand-cut and slip-stitched from century-old Macclesfield silk, with a direct lineage to 1880s British regimental stripes adopted by rugby clubs and Ivy League. The 100% silk woven in the Macclesfield tradition features rugby stripes woven into the twill, not printed, running horizontally when knotted for a relaxed, sporty look. At 2.75 inches, the width suits modern slim-fit suits while bridging vintage proportions. Professional dry cleaning is required, but the woven stripes resist fading and cracking. Comparable to heritage brands in quality and construction at a lower price, it offers a blend of British club tradition with a dark, enigmatic character.
