Shantung might very well be one of the more underrated fabrics in the world of neckwear, as more smooth silk tends to take up most of the spotlight (and perhaps, most of the space in your neckwear selection). But shantung, with its irregular pattern, is a prime addition to your next tailored ensemble, with slub texture that adds smart-casual appeal and visual interest. Upon further inspection, this cobalt blue tie should nicely offset casual charcoal tailoring, wool herringbone blazers and even a navy worsted wool suit.
