Father's Day Gift List: Top Ten Ties

Filed under: Apparel

Father's Day started in 1910 and though there is no record of when the tradition of giving Dad a tie began, they are the quintessential father's day gift. Unfortunately, the more popular ties were as a gift, the less attractive they seemed to get and before long, father's seemed to dread getting "another ugly tie" - as though they were often besieged with such ties. But ties are useful and, thanks to more than a few good designers, there are a lot of fantastic looking ties. Here are some of our favorite picks for Dad this Father's Day.

If Dad likes a bit of a vintage edge to his clothing, or simply doesn't seem to have completely gotten over his fondness for his younger, wilder days, Ben Sherman's warm, vintage brown silk tie with a geometric, floral pattern is one he'll love $59.50

Pink Nano Tie

Filed under: Apparel, Gadgets

This article is dated February, but it slipped under my RADAR and is worth a mention in case you missed it too.  Thomas Pink, manufacturer of some fabulous shirts, has a tie with an iPod Nano holder on the inside.  How cool is that?  Listen to your Nano at work while still in business professional attire.  Nano incorporating clothing is nothing new, we covered a belt buckle not too long ago, but nothing in the luxury sector until the $100 "commuter" tie from Pink.
