It's no secret that I'm a cheap dresser who thinks things into the ground before buying. Nor am I free of the intonations of the menswear bloggers, who tend to all suggest a navy grenadine tie. Drakes makes them for $100+, but I get vertigo just thinking about spending that much on a tie, no matter how useful.
Enter The Knottery's navy grenadine tie. (The discoloration in the middle of the shot is an artifact of my camera.) TK has been around for a while, but their ties are so popular that they tend to sell out really fast. This time, I got on the waitlist and so was ensured one. As promised, it has a lot of texture-based personality. Contrasting textures can make a relatively monochromatic outfit much more interesting, and for this, it fits the bill perfectly.
Outfit photos to come.

My humble village Priest suggested I could do mid-term shopping with confidence. So, I went to the web site and liked the price, but saw nothing re length. Are they all long?

I don't think so--most probably, they are sold out of the regular length. They tend to sell out quickly after a huge batch comes in. To get mine, I had to sign up for their "notify me when this is in stock" thinger.
