Did you ever get any additional info on this? It took me a while to figure out why I prefer the shape of some ties over others and I believe this is the reason. I lean toward the bottle shape.
Nope. I email replied but David didn’t have any pics. Couldn’t really find anything online either.
Interesting. Ok, I ordered a tie from him last night and requested the bottle shape. I’ll post a photo when I receive it.
it if you wouldn’t mind tagging me in the post.
Shoot, I received the tie but sent it to Tie Crafters to be shortened a bit. I’ll get a photo up here when it returns. Apologies for the delay!
Unfortunately I don’t have another non-bottle Hober tie to compare with but here is the most recent bottle shaped tie that I ordered. Oddly, the taper doesn’t seem that different from any other tie I own but I am guessing it is more gradual, leaving more width up toward the knot.
I would ask David directly via email. He’s very good with communication and will get on the phone with you if a conversation is necessary. I’ve ordered a many ties from Hober including satin and grosgrain bowties with very specific measurements and he nailed them.
That is good to know. Thanks for the help.
