    My feeling, too. There seemed to be such a broad consensus in favour a year ago and here we are starting all over again.

    I may be wrong, but I don't recall a "broad consensus" a year ago. Still it is a good job "we" are not designing something important. What?

    I'd be perfectly happy with one of Glen's designs, I just prefer the bolder dark blue and yellow stripes of Jock's suggestion and Artificer's mock-up.

    Either will do, I just find one more appealing than the other!

    Guys, if what you want is a simple wide stripe in blue and gold, without spending a mint...

    want a smaller stripe?

    or really thin gold stripes...

    Hi Guys, I have previously used these guys to produce a Regimental tie for a reunion. Excellent service provided. They sent proofs out so you could see examples.

    Question

    I just ran across this thread, and was just curious if anything further has developed in the progress towards an XMTS "regimental/club" tie?

    Oy, ve!...

    OK, since Steve hasn't chimed in, I'm going to solve this issue.
    HERE is the X-Marks tie. I declare it to be so, and therefore, it IS.




    You can buy it here.

    There. Done. Wear it in good health. Cheers.

    Um, OK. Is that the XMarks shirt, too? Is that a thistle on the breast pocket?
