I’m getting older. I know it and I’m ok with it. But I have a problem letting go of the things.
My car is 21 years old and has 221,000 miles.
While at work one day a (younger) colleague of mine told me how much he liked my navy blue pinstriped suit. I asked him how old he was and he indicated that he was 33 years of age. I looked at the tag sewn in my inner breast pocket and looked at the year the suit was made. I told him that he was 15-years old when I bought that suit.
I recondition and refurbish most of my shoes and some of them are closing in on 20 years of age and still look pretty good.
I now have a closet full of ties. I still like most them. I have given away most of the ones I didn’t care for.
Some of them were purchased many years ago and their width is indicative of their age.
Instead of replacing them, I have decided to have them narrowed to 3.25” and cleaned.
I have seen Tiecrafters mentioned on B&B as well as other places and have decided to send them two ties (as an experiment).
For a total cost of $83 (including shipping) hopefully these two ties can be updated and rejuvenated instead of just hanging in my closet. I certainly couldn’t replace these two ties for that same amount of money.
If they are done to my satisfaction, Tiecrafters will see a steady stream of ties from my closet. If not, then my questions are answers.
I plan on sending them out next week. I’ll post some before and after pics.
