This tie was a bit of a disappointment. The main problem is that the picture of the tie on the sight does a poor job of showing you what it actually looks like. In the picture it looks like a black and white think striped tie. But its actually a dark blue and white. And on the white part there is finer details. In the white stripes are smaller stripes of different shades of white and silver. I'll keep it because I own some shirts that will work with this style, but just be aware it looks different than in the picture.
