Ralph Lauren Repp Dot Silk Tie – $39.99 (Reg. $115)
Can you find cheaper ties for under $40? Of course. Will they tie as well, look as good, or be what you reach for when you have to be all business and at the top of your game? Probably not.
This is the kind of tie you hold onto for your biggest days.
A pindot tie is one of the three ties every guy should own, and the dots on this Ralph Lauren tie are a perfect example of what you want. Small but not tiny, and the spacing between each dot is dead on. The solid black background makes it the perfect choice for a blue shirt and gray suit, or… you can look like an (extremely well dressed) diplomat in a deep navy suit and white oxford.
It’s 3.5 inches wide so it’ll tie a nice sized knot and anchor your look.
This isn’t a tie you wear under a sweater or just alone with a shirt and slacks. This is a tie for a well tailored suit, shined black shoes, and your favorite watch.
Currently on sale at 65% off for just under $40.

Too wide. I try to keep my ties between 2.5 and 3 inches.
It goes back to taste. I think this is a great looking tie and even thoough I do stick to narrow ties, I also have some wider ones in my arsenal and agree that this is a must have.
2.5 is perfect for me, but this one, at this price? I’ll take it. (I’ll be wearing a jacket all the time with it anyway. And rarely open)
I recently purchased that Navy Alfani RED suit you linked to, mostly because I was made aware of the brand by this site. My review of it is on that page.
Remember you can always have a tailor turn a wide tie into a slimmer one for a couple bucks if you so desire
