A lined 3-fold construction is the classic. Consider a lined 6-fold if you like a heavier tie. Unlined 7-folds are an old-fashioned complex construction.
Let us know your knot in the checkout notes area if it is a different knot from what we list above. Keep in mind that different knots need different lengths; as an example a half-Windsor usually needs two inches more length than a four-in-hand. This is due to the extra looping.
Please tell us the exact length in the checkout notes area. The length is measured from the tip of the big end to the tip of the small end. See our Tie Guide point number 6 for measuring help - linked from the top of our home page. Note that the drop down menu for length is for you to order a length range we still need you to tell us your exact length in the checkout notes area.
Please tell us your exact width in the checkout notes area. Width is measured at the widest part of the tie another are no rules for the best width, it should be based on your body size and your personal preference. It is a sartorial myth that you should match your tie width to your jacket lapels. Note that the drop down menu for width is for you to order a width range, we still need you to tell us your exact width in the checkout notes area.
Classic Tipping has the same fabric in the triangular underside of the tie as the front of the tie. Rolled edges can only be added to ties without tipping - If you select different tipping tell us which tipping fabric in the checkout notes area.
Tell us your monogram in the checkout notes area. Our handsewn monograms are individual letters, numbers & characters, not a group of letters. Please count the total of each letter, number & character that you want: Example RST is three monograms, not one monogram.
A bar tack is a small stitch on the reverse side of the tie that helps to hold the tie together.
Normally men who are members of a regiment or other group in the UK wear a tie in the British stripe direction; the direction varies. The British direction has a charge because there is extra silk used. The American direction is the worldwide standard.
For special measurements etc. please ask before ordering at: customerservice@samhober.com For note cards tell us what to write in the checkout notes area. Gift boxes are available but gift wrap is not available. Two ties to a gift box is standard. For an extra charge we can pack ties - one tie to a gift box.

1st Regiment US Army

The 1st Infantry Regiment of the United States Army traces its lineage to 1791 and the establishment of the 2nd Infantry Regiment. A year later the regiment was transformed into a component of the Legion of the United States, a combined arms force of infantry, artillery, and cavalry. Since its establishment the regiment has seen action in 39 campaigns including the War of 1812, the Mexican War, the Civil War, World War II, Vietnam, as well as the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. 

The regiment’s coat of arms bears a field of blue, the color of the Infantry branch, as well as a field of red, the color of the old Legion of the United States. The notches on the diagonal band represent the campaigns the regiment has participated in. In a nod to its history the regiment is still know as “the Legion” and veterans and current members refer to one another as “Legionaries”.

 

Please visit our Tie Guide page for help with your measurements - please note that the amount of stretch varies as is based on how often you wear your tie and how tightly you make your knot etc. Only you can decide your correct length.
