The term “tie” takes on new meaning when considering shantung ties. It’s still crafted from 100 percent silk, and in this case it’s in a sleek charcoal color, but the shantung weave delivers irregular slub texture for a look that’s worth a second (or third) glance. This material isn’t the most traditional for a tie, so it might not prove fully red carpet worthy, but if you’re searching for a tie as a change of pace from a formal silk tie or even a casual knit tie a la Sean Connery’s version of James Bond, consider this stylish option.
