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-and 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.
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.
The drop down menu for the length range is for you to order a length range. For example 60.1 to 63 inches = plus $5. This will show on your invoice when you checkout.
Width is measured at the widest part of the tie there 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.
The drop down menu for the width range is for you to order a width range. For example up to 4 inches = plus $5. This will show on your invoice when you checkout.
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 and thread color and number - click on the "?" for a link to our thread colors. We only work with English letters, numbers & standard keyboard characters and do not do special fonts.
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 Gift boxes are standard 2 ties to a box. For an extra charge we can pack ties one tie to a gift box.We use white tissue paper to wrap the ties.
Tell us your exact note and we will write a note by hand for you.

Green, Scarlet & Gold - 100% Silk 

The green represents the green jackets of the first Continental Marines of 1776.
Marine Corps Order No. 4 of April 18, 1925 designated gold and scarlet as the official colors of the U.S. Marine Corps on the battle standard (flag).
These colors, however, were not reflected in the official Marine Corps standard until January 18, 1939.
Scarlet as a Marine Corps uniform color dates to the 1779 Enlisted and Officers uniforms which had scarlet facings. 
 
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.
