The Allister Tie is crafted from 100% silk mogador in a micro floral design exclusive to M.J. Bale. It is made according to the traditional three-fold construction technique and features an 8cm blade, as well as our signature blue-white stripe silk tipping.
The Allister Tie is created in a silk mogador, which is a technique that produces fabric with a distinctive ribbed texture. It involves weaving two yarns together in a crosshatch pattern to create a diagonal ribbed effect with a matte finish and subtle sheen. The result is a slightly heavier weighted tie with a unique texture that adds depth and character to your tailored look.

Provenance
Fibre Source
Silk comes from the cocoon of the silkworm, a type of caterpillar that is native to China.
The cocoons are harvested and the silk fibres are carefully unraveled and spun into threads, which are then woven into fabric.
Silk has a natural lustre and sheen, but is also a strong and durable fibre that can withstand repeated wear and handling. It is also naturally moisture-wicking, which means that it can absorb sweat and other moisture without becoming damaged or discoloured.
