I wanted a bit of dazzle in my debut Classic British Collection so I created The Waldron. Named after Chris Waldron, a personal friend of this house and one of the hardest working and most dedicated souls in the British tie manufacturing industry, The Waldron is every bit as dazzling as its namesake, boasting a three-dimensional effect of tightly compact cubes in black, platinum and mulberry that will procure its share of double takes and hard-to-break stares and glares. Pair The Waldron with your best workday suits and boots and it will surely get its due attention as you stroll past the water cooler. And you'll absolutely love what it will do for your black velvet jacket. Be the dazzler you were always meant to be! Avaialble exclsuively as a 6cm thistle. Handmade in England from 100% British-milled silk.
The Waldron | Usatinsky Bow Ties
Follow these guidelines for keeping your Usatinsky Bow Ties looking fresh for years to come.
Your heirloom-quality Usatinsky Bow Tie is an investment into your wardrobe, so attention to care is important.
Untie your bow tie just as carefully as you tied it on, then hang it on your tie rack or drape it around the collar of a jacket so gravity can help smooth out the wrinkles.
For stubborn wrinkles, cover your bow tie with a tea towel and use a warm steam iron, making certain the iron never comes into direct contact with your bow tie. If you don’t have a steam iron, hang it in the bathroom while you take a hot shower.
To avoid wrinkles or creases when traveling, gently roll your bow ties prior to packing and unroll and hang them promptly upon arrival.
If you get a stain on your bow tie, try not to rub or scrub the fabric. Use a clean cloth and seltzer water to blot water-soluble stains; try talcum powder to extract any stains that are oil-based. Fine silk threads are fragile and should be handled gently.
A commercial spot remover may remove stubborn stains, but be sure to test the back of the bow tie first to see how the silk responds. If all else fails, you can take your bow ties to a dry cleaner, but only as a last resort as the chemicals and cleaning process may damage or destroy the silk.
