The Tie Foundry Standard

Hands carefully inspecting a silk necktie with a jeweler's loupe on a wooden workbench

Selected. Never Simply Sourced.

Every tie that carries the Tie Foundry mark has earned it. Nothing is added to our collection because it merely turned up — each piece is individually evaluated against a standard, and most don't make the cut.

Here's what we look for:

  • Quality — construction, materials, and finishing that hold up to close inspection
  • Craftsmanship — the hand of a skilled maker, visible in the details
  • Style — designs with lasting character, not fleeting trend
  • Condition — pieces that still present beautifully, decades on
  • Timeless Appeal — the kind of tie that's just as right today as the day it was made

Only the ties that meet every one of these earn a place in our collection. That's the Tie Foundry Standard — and it's the same standard behind every piece you'll find here.
