Kiton 5-Fold Steel Blue & Navy Silk & Linen Club Stripe Tie

Discover the Kiton Five-Fold Steel Blue and Navy Silk and Linen Club Stripe Tie, a piece of neckwear that earns its place in a serious wardrobe through the quality of its making as much as the intelligence of its design. The club stripe in steel blue and navy is a combination of considerable versatility, the two tones closely related enough to work as a near-tonal proposition against darker suits while remaining distinct enough to carry real visual interest against lighter cloths and open-collar shirts. The silk and linen blend gives the tie a character that pure silk cannot produce: the silk contributes its natural sheen and a fluidity of drape that makes the tie fall and knot with ease, while the linen introduces a subtle texture and a slight resistance to the weave that prevents the surface from reading as flat or conventional, the two fibres working together to produce a cloth of genuine depth. The five-fold construction, in which the silk is folded five times without any interlining to achieve its body and weight, is the detail that separates this tie from virtually everything else at this price point: the result is a knot of exceptional fullness and a blade with a natural, slightly unstructured drape that interlining can approach but never authentically replicate.

Kiton applies to its ties the same philosophy that governs its tailoring: the finest available materials, constructed entirely by hand, with no concession to what is merely adequate. A five-fold in silk and linen from the Naples atelier is not a tie that performs differently from season to season or outfit to outfit but one that simply performs, consistently and without condition, as a piece of neckwear made to the highest standard the category allows. The club stripe is the most enduring pattern in that category, and in steel blue and navy on this construction it is given precisely the treatment it deserves.

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.
