Stalward Ltd.

CXXVI co-founder Matt Gorton is getting into the neckwear biz with his latest project, Stalward Ltd. The label offers limited edition ties which use fabric handpicked by Gorton himself. The fabrics are mostly short run or deadstock from sources all around the world and are then handsewn in a family owned factory in Chicago that has been in operation for over 50 years. All that effort will cost you $64. Compare that to the mass-manufactured $60 ties at the local department store and the Stalward option quickly becomes the deal of the century if you ask us. Link
