Collezione Don Mimì - LOGO

Length: 148 cm
Width: 8 cm
Material: 100% Challis wool
Color: Green background with light blue and blue geometric pattern
Production: Artisanal, Made in Italy

Challis wool has an unmistakable feel: matte, soft, lacking the sheen of silk but with an equally precise drape. This three-fold tie, printed on a deep green background with two-tone blue geometrics, bears the mark of craftsmanship designed for the cold months. A sartorial accessory of rigorous standard that fits into the winter wardrobe without drawing too much attention, but making itself remembered for the quality of the material.

Style and Pairing Tips

  • Studio meeting: The matte green of the wool softens excessive formality while keeping the rigor of the work context intact.
    Outfit: Navy blue flannel suit, white poplin shirt with a classic collar, black calfskin oxfords.
  • Lunch at the club: The texture of the printed wool dialogues naturally with the carded fabrics and evident weaves typical of the winter season.
    Outfit: Herringbone grey tweed blazer, light blue twill shirt, brown fustian tailored trousers, dark brown suede loafers.
  • Friday in the office: A broken suit pairing that uses the light blue accents of the geometric pattern to tie the outfit's tones together.
    Outfit: Dark blue worsted wool sports jacket, light blue oxford shirt, medium grey chinos, suede chukka boots.

The tailor's tip: Challis wool creates full and very stable knots. A half Windsor knot is the most suitable choice for this 8 cm width: it fills the collar well without being excessive, enhancing the matte softness of the printed fabric.

Product care: Dry clean by professionals. Do not iron directly on the print: use an interposed cotton cloth and keep the iron at a low temperature. At the end of the day, gently untie the knot and store it rolled or hung to let the fibers relax. If over time it should need a sartorial intervention, our tie regeneration service will take care of it with the same attention as the initial manufacture.

Frequently asked questions

What is challis wool and when is it worn? +
Challis wool is a lightweight fabric, with a soft and matte feel, traditionally used for sartorial printing. Unlike silk, it has a material texture that makes it perfect for ties in the autumn and winter wardrobe.
Can I wear this green tie with a blue suit? +
Certainly. The green background and the geometric pattern in shades of light blue and blue are designed to create a natural chromatic continuity with navy suits. It is a rigorous combination that offers a solid alternative to the classic blue tie.
How do I remove folds from a wool tie? +
The fundamental rule is to always untie the knot at the end of the day and store the tie hanging. If wrinkles form, simply leaving it hanging in the bathroom during a hot shower is enough; the steam will help the wool fibers relax without resorting to an iron.
What does a 3-fold construction mean? +
It is the traditional manufacturing method in which the fabric is folded three times onto itself to give structure to the tie. This artisanal technique ensures a balanced weight, a precise drape on the chest, and a stable knot throughout the day.
