The Secret to a Beautifully Deep Blue

Blue, a trend color straight from this season's Spring/Summer runways, is increasingly visible in suit styles. With its signature ingenuity, FAIRFAX combines the elements of stripes and blue to express originality and superior quality.
While appearing to be a simple stripe tie, its distinctive feature lies in the meticulous attention paid to the fabric.
Specifically, it uses blue yarn for the warp. Typically, black or white yarn is used for the warp, with the weft yarn dictating the color – that's the standard approach. FAIRFAX, however, adopted a novel method to achieve a deep, beautiful blue that sets it apart from other stripe ties.
Furthermore, the lustrous, supple satin fabric enhances the color's vibrancy. The very simple stripe pattern also aligns with this year's mood. We expect these ties to be a valuable addition to formal business occasions, from the attire of fresh graduates to crucial presentations. They are sure to impart a sense of reassurance and strength to the wearer's V-zone, conveying confidence to the observer.
