Jack Franklin 100% Silk Ties Review & Giveaway - Ends 10/15 CLOSED

Jack Franklin

The Company
Early on, I chose a career where neckties were an important part of my wardrobe. Having the right tie was an important part of feeling put together. Whether giving a presentation to some colleagues, visiting with a new client, or just laying some ground work with that new waitress at my favorite lunch spot, the tie defined me.

A tie can be your only sense of identity in a world of dark suits and dress shirts. After years of searching for mens ties that held a good knot, were simple, clean, bold, and thick, I was often left wanting. Even if I was able to find the right tie, I grew tired of spending half a day’s pay to buy it. It seemed like everywhere I went, retailers were charging me 300% for the brand name.

You may wonder how I am able to sell these beauties for much less than the ties sold on 5th Avenue and Jeremy Street. Even though they are made on the same production line as those same brands, I bring them to you at a cost that is reasonable and affordable. Why such a difference in cost? Real estate, employees, ego. (I have little of all three)

So enjoy. My goal is to provide you with enough good designs to make choosing difficult and at a price that encourages you to buy an irresponsible amount of neckwear. Good luck.

The Review

I selected three different ties from Jack Franklin to review; Dark Night, Goose Bumps & the Solid Dark Green. The ties came encased in a nice plastic sleeve to protect them.
What makes a Jack Franklin tie unique?

• Silk - 100% of the highest quality silk
  
• Woven ties - An added layer of qualitywhich adds texture to the designs
  
• Italian weavers - only the finest ties are made on the finest Italian weavers
  
• Wool interlining - a good tie is defined by its weight. All Jack Franklin ties contain an extra layer of wool interlining
  
• Hand sewn - need I say more?
  

The ties are given wool interlining, adding a layer of thickness that helps tie a beautiful knot. The ties are all hand-sewn for ultimate quality and perfection.

I could tell the difference of the quality of these ties as soon as I removed them from the protective sleeve they came in. We were use to cheaper ties from the local department stores and there is no comparison. The 100% silk made them smooth and luxurious with great pattern texturing. Making a knot was so easy my hubby could even do it himself.

Check out the double loops on the inside to keep your tie in place and you looking great.

There is a nice selection of ties on the website – solids, stripes and patterns all 100% silk!

They even have instructions on How to Tie a Tie with several different styles to choose from.

Check out the Tie of the Month Club what a great Christmas gift for that special someone that loves ties!
