I was never able to find this gorgeous texture anywhere. I won’t waste my time digging through designer racks any more trying to ferret out a hidden gem. Fort Belvederes Shantung tie are a treat to wear and beautifully made. I never realized how few compliments I got on my ties until I started wearing Fort Belvedere. Clean out your tie rack and make room for some real treasures.

I attend a lot of seminars and of course I need ties for them, ones not too formal and not too casual. I have tie collection that make me either overdressedor or underdressed. Fort Belvedere website, this tie caught my attention right away. The shantung texture gives a really nice laid-back vibe, the dark green is the theme color of my college and the rep strips makes me look scholarly in the seminars. Pure perfection. I feel more confident behind the podium. Great quality tie with nice hand-rolled tip got me appreciation from old gentlemen right away, would invest in more in the future. 5 star purchase easy.

My boss was away at my place of work and my co-worker and I were tasked with organizing a social event for the entire office. Unfortunately all my jackets were solid colours and I needed a piece of neck wear which would serve as an effective business casual accent in terms of colour, pattern and texture. The Fort Belvedere Shantung Striped Green, Purple and Cream Silk Tie which I had purchased was an educational experience in quality neckwear. The split complimentary colour of viridian and burgundy, in varying size of striped pattern, brought some extra spice to my suede tan jacket. It felt great watching the warm Australian sunlight bounce off the surface of my tie using a four-in-hand knot with a white poplin weave dress shirt. In addition I incorporated the Fort Belvedere two toned ribbed over-the-calf cotton socks to bridge my air force blue chinos to my dark burgundy derby shoes. Whilst most people didn't compliment me on the tie specifically, I knew that it played the most important role in my ensemble. "Looking sharp, Simon.", "I love your outfit!" were some of the highlights. I was later invited to the directors BBQ event, and im sure that the impression I made on the day showed that I have good taste and attention to detail.

Wear it with a navy blazer and you can't go wrong.

I recently ordered a few of these Shantung silk ties and they have quickly become some of my favorite ties. The stripe is classic (and I love the green and purple combo which feels a little more casual than formal) and these ties are soft-spoken (they're not shiny like some silk ties) but still very interesting and classy. I would definitely recommend them and plan on getting more (but in bow ties to complement the neck ties I already acquired).

My first tie of this type. The texture is interesting and I like the colors and pattern and this tie is a nice addition to my collection and provides a more casual look. I wear it with sport coats. I was never big on dressing up until somewhat recently. I believe I stumbled across the Youtube channel looking how to tie different knots. I believe what kept me coming back was Sven's knowledge about fashion. Your passion for the subject is infective as well. Thank You

Thank you for your purchase, Suen-bun! We're thrilled that you like it. It's not really the first choice for beginners so I can tell that you're always well-dressed. Make sure to roll it up for a day after untying the knot to allow the wrinkles to relax. Looking forward to doing business with you again!
