Kiton 5-Fold Royal Blue Plain Twill Self-Tipped Tie

Discover the Kiton Five-Fold Royal Blue Plain Twill Self-Tipped Tie, a tie that makes its entire argument through cloth quality and colour alone. Royal blue in a plain twill is a combination of immediate confidence, the colour vivid enough to anchor an outfit with genuine presence while the twill weave gives the surface a subtle diagonal texture that prevents the plain from reading as flat, the light catching the silk at a slightly different angle across the width of the blade. The self-tipped finish, where the same fabric folds back to form the tip rather than using a separate lining cloth, is the construction detail that completes a tie of this intention correctly, the back of the blade as considered as the front. In pure silk the royal blue carries a depth and luminosity that the twill weave amplifies, the colour behaving differently under natural and artificial light in a way that only silk produces. Five folds without interlining, the full natural knot and the clean, weighted blade drape that the self-tipped finish and the five-fold construction together deliver.

A plain royal blue twill self-tipped tie from Kiton is the house at its most disciplined: no pattern, no contrast, just exceptional silk made entirely by hand in Naples to a standard that a plain tie demands more honestly than any patterned one. Everything is visible and nothing is hidden, which is precisely the point.

Kiton was founded by Ciro Paone in 1968 in Arzano, near Naples. Ciro Paone was born in Naples in 1933; he came from a family of fabric dealers who had been operative for five generations – which have now become seven generations. For more than 3 decades, Ciro’s passion gave rise to the Kiton project. With the founding of Kiton, Ciro turned his greatest passion into a vocation, elevating tailoring from a modest artisan craft to an artistic expression: the love for beauty, the love for beautiful garments. His entire existence focuses on two fundamentals: passion and quality.

Please review measurements and quality control comments carefully before ordering. As a small independent boutique we encourage thoughtful purchasing. For any questions, feel free to contact us before placing your order.

To maintain the beauty of this sartorial item, we recommend professional laundering and careful pressing. Even though ironing can effectively and easily remove wrinkles from your tie, the heat has the potential to scorch and damage the material, and it can leave your tie looking lifeless and flat. Steaming is usually the better option because it's much gentler on the fabric and can tackle the most stubborn wrinkles.

General Note: While we inspect each item to ensure its quality, please note that minor imperfections may be present due to the preloved nature of the garments. We strive to represent every item accurately, but subtle signs of wear may sometimes go unnoticed. We appreciate your understanding and commitment to sustainable luxury.
