I had noticed the slant differences too. The Regimental ties, with all them on the same site, you can quickly pick out the American ones..but I still believe I will get the Marine one.. Now just find a site that does not try to kill you on shipping...lol I have paid less to ship a kilt than what they want to ship a silk tie..

Er, if you look at the Smart Turnout website you have a choice of UK or US just click the appropriate flag.That may reduce the cost if ordered through their US branch. I hasten to add, I have no connection to this first rate firm, other than as a satisfied customer over the years.

My Beloit College ties is different from most school ties in that it is not just stripes with the school colors, but also Beloit's emblem embroidered into the tie.

Sorry to disapoint you Jock, but I hate, hate, hate ties. I would rather not wear a tie, ever. Why? Must be the rebellious scottish side of me...

Ok, I have been wanting a Regimental Tie... and thanks to Jock Scots subtle prodding... I pulled the trigger tonight... I ordered this US Marine Corps Regimental Tie..


Jock, I did look at the site you posted, but there was no US Marine Corps Ties.... If I am wearing a regimental tie... it will be for something I belong to.... Thanks for your posting this thread and helping me get something I will wear with pride...

I'm sure all the Marines posting here would like to know where you got the tie from. I need to replace the one I purchased over 20 years ago.

Generally speaking I don't enjoy wearing ties, but I mean for me the idea of wearing something that has a signifiacne or an inherent pride ont in it, basically trumps that idea.

As always, if you feel good in or about what you're wearing, that's the way to be! Now of course, I am not big on wearing things I have no lineage to.... for instance wearing a Marine Corps tie when I could never have been in the Marines you know?

It is a Brent Morgan XLong silk Marine Corps Regimental. I found it at http://www.wildties.com the same tie is found on many different sites, but for the value and reasonable shipping... I went this route.. SgtGrit has a version that is a dark blue background and the red and yellow stripes are a bit different, but I liked this version.
