“About 25 years ago I was buying ties; it was the early 90’s and bold, garish, floral ties were in style. I was at Ralph Lauren and they had classic stripes and polka dots. It was not the aesthetic I was looking for at the time and then in walked Ralph Lauren. He explained to me that bold floral prints were a passing fad and what I should be buying are ties that will last and endure forever.” - Bob Mitchell
