How to care for your ties
Now that you’re the proud owner of a tie from The Barberis Collection, what can you do to help ensure it stays awesome? Plenty. Hang it with the suit it goes with, draping it around the coat collar. Or invest in a tie rack or organizer, which makes it that much easier to see all your options.
When removing your tie, reverse the method used to tie it rather than pulling the small end of your tie through the knot. If you don’t want to permanently crease the fabulous fabric, don’t leave the tie knotted.
When it comes to stains — we get it, life’s messy — getting them out depends on the makeup of the stain itself. Water-soluble stains are best treated with a clean cloth and a small amount of seltzer water. Gently dab. As for oil-based stains, your best bet is talcum powder to pull it out. For serious stains, you can opt for a spot remover but do test on the back of the tie first. If all that fails, there’s always your favorite dry cleaner. And if none if that works, you know where to find us. Chances are there’s a new addition to our neckwear selection that will catch your eye — our name guarantees it.
