A Sam (and David) Hober Tie Appreciation Thread

The last thing I need is another Alden-esque thread with abundant pictures which causes me to make compulsively purchases...

It's not so bad. You can buy 5 Hobers for the price of one pair of Aldens.

+1. I wasn't super impressed with the swatch (thought it was fine but didn't really do anything that navy didn't do). I may have to reconsider looking at the picture. Darn you PinkPanther; I'm trying so hard to buy non-grenadines...

I certainly don't want to cause any problems.

The solution is to buy both grenadines and non-grenadines.

I have both navy and slate blue in the grossa. The navy is awesome and the slate blue is equally so but different enough to be distinctive.

Looking good.  Slate may be more versatile of a color than I initially thought.

Thanks! It is indeed versatile, and even better IRL.

No, no, keep the pics coming! I love the pictures. I have a Navy grossa as well. I snag ever grossa I buy though within the first wear or two. I think I'm going to stick to finas for a bit.

I will keep posting...at least until I run out of Hober's...which may take a while. Today's is the rose pink diamond weave (3-fold construction). Happy Friday to all!

Not always convinced by diamond weaves but that one is stunning pinkpanther!

Looks good... and worthy of your pseudonym here on SF.

Many thanks Syeknom and Sonny58!! I have become a pretty big fan of the diamond weaves.

Very nice PinkPanther. The rose diamond weave is one of my favorite Hobers.

Grenadine Stripe Tie #3 (Powder Blue and Brown Stripes on Midnight Blue).

That is like the Official SF tie.

Looks good.

Simply awesome.
