Penn State Tie
1" dark blue and 1/2" white stripes. 1/8" dark pink and black thin lines.
Made with 100% English woven silk.
Our custom made ties are made completely by hand in the length, width and shape, that you request.
Please visit our Custom Tie Guide to order your custom made tie.
However, we are happy to make a standard tie for you which will work well for most men.
If you would like a standard tie simply click on "Add to Cart" and we will take care of everything for you.
Our standard tie is made with a 3-fold construction with a 57 inch length and 3 3/4 inch width.
In our studio the tie is hand-folded, and sewn with a hidden stitch to close the back, which gives the tie a soft natural drape. The back is finished with a slipstitch at both ends.
The interlining is made with the finest Italian interlining wool. The keeper loop is sewn into the seam, which assures that it will last for years.
The tipping (on the underside of the tie) and the keeper are made from the same silk as the front of the tie.
After we make your pattern we carefully cut by hand the silk for each tie, one by one.
Please note that the photographs do not do the silk justice; in real life the silk takes on a new dimension and looks positively alive.

Penn State's student-athletes are instantly identified by their blue and white uniforms - but those weren't the original school colors. A three-member committee representing the sophomore, junior and senior classes was appointed in October of 1887 to develop color options from which the student body would select the school's official colors. Dark pink and black was the unanimous choice of the student body after considering the color combinations presented by the committee.
Soon many students and the baseball team were sporting pink and black striped blazers and caps. However, problems arose when the pink faded to white after several weeks of exposure to the sun. The students then opted for blue, rather than black, and white. The official announcement of the new choice was made on March 18, 1890.
