Drakes Grenadine Ties

Here are my personal favorites for their unique simplicity.  To me this shows the ultimate in attention to craft and quality materials.  Which are, to me, is what it is all about.  As Drakes puts it, "The original and only true grenadine woven on vintage wooden looms."  Grenadine refers to the weave of the silk, in this case a weave that is loose, light, and textured.  These have a very unique texture that is showcased by the stripes that appear to float on the material.
