Anatomy of our Grenadine Ties
Garza Fina
There are two types of grenadines: garza grossa and garza fina. Garza grossa is a loose weave while garza fina is much finer. The tighter weave makes for a more resilient tie that won't easily get snagged and damaged. All Aklasu grenadine ties are garza fina, further ensuring your tie is made to last.
The Silk
A great tie starts with quality raw materials. Each one of our ties is made from the best silk in the world which is found in Como, Italy. That's where our ties are made too! Only a handful of mills make authentic grenadine - it is truly special.
The Keeper
Unlike most brands, our keepers are made of the same material as the tie's envelope. This makes for a more durable and complete tie.
Interlining
The interlining helps give a tie its shape. We use wool because it is more wrinkle resistant versus cotton or synthetics used by other brands. It costs a little extra but it's worth it! Some brands use cotton, synthetic fabric or no interlining at all - these ties tend to have poor drape and lackluster knots.
Blue, especially navy blue is extremely versatile. The incorporation of a design against the solid blue makes the tie standout more and gives you some flexibility in complementing your outfit with other accent pieces like a pocket square. Pair this tie with just about anything, go wild.
