Product Insights
The Le 31 Varsity Stripe Tie combines a prep‑derived 1880 Exeter College rowing pattern with a 2.75‑inch width that flatters slim builds and works from smart‑casual to formal, pairing naturally with navy blazers, button‑down shirts, and slim lapels under three inches. Its core tradeoff is the requirement of a four‑in‑hand knot to achieve a clean silhouette, and at $99 CAD it undercuts comparable Italian silk ties from Brooks Brothers. Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the silk fabric's quality.
Verified claims
- Style pairing
- Varsity stripe tie pairs with navy blazers and button-down shirts.
- Slim fit
- 2.75-inch width flatters slim builds without being fashion-skinny.
- Lapel pairing
- Pairs well with slim lapels under 3 inches.
- Knot
- A four-in-hand knot is required for a clean silhouette with the 2.75-inch blade.
- Width
- The 2.75-inch width is within the classic range and safe for formal events.
- Pattern
- Varsity stripes are prep-derived and read as campus-to-clubhouse casual rather than formal; the 2.75-inch width works well for smart-casual and business wear, but the pattern is not a formal regimental.
- Heritage
- Pattern rooted in 1880 Exeter College rowing; exclusive Simon's design.
- Value
- At $99 CAD, it undercuts Brooks Brothers' $118–$148 USD Italian silk ties.
- Care
- Dry cleaning recommended to preserve the silk fabric's quality.
- Italian silk construction
- The tie shares the same Italian silk construction as Brooks Brothers' Italian-made silk ties.
