Tie Society: Meet the Netflix of Ties

Tie Society, like all great ideas, was first realized at a bar between friends. Once again another benefit of beer and football. Thank you very much. The Netflix-like men’s accessory service was hatched between two friends fresh out of college in D.C., who ended up swapping ties to avoid dropping coin on new ones. Zach Gittens and Otis Collins, the founders, understood they could wear the same suits every week, but what they received compliments on were their ties. First they swapped their own collections and then started expanding with their group of friends. Tie Society was born when they decided to bring their idea to the rest of us.

The best part about this service is you can spend as little as $10 month on one tie. But we recommend the $20 monthly service for three ties at time. You can keep the accessories as long as you want, swap them as often as you want and best of all – no late fees. What’s the catch? As far as we can see at The Manual there isn’t one. And according to Jake Kuczeruk, the Chief Marketing Officer at Tie Society it’s all about rewarding the customer. The curated collection ranges from smaller designers like Mosaic to larger brand names like J. Crew and Hermes.

“There’s nothing on the site that we wouldn’t use personally. Every guy some time in his life has to wear ties,” said Kuczeruk.

Since inception in November 2011, Tie Society has grown to expand its service outside of the U.S. to Japan. They now offer bow ties, cuff links, tie bars and pocket squares. If you’re looking for a unique Father’s Day gift for later this month Tie Society will be offering “Dad Packs” that will include two ties, a pocket square, tie bar and cuff links set. You can rent one for $50 to get him started or buy one for $100. They will also include a handwritten messages and some of their TS Collar stays.

How it Works:
  • Sign up for an online closet at www.tiesociety.com
  • Select Membership Plan. We recommend the $20-a-month subscription for three items. However there are plans for $10 for one item and up to $50 for 10 items.
  • Items arrive 1-3 days after you order them and they come with return packaging and postage.
  • Exchange and return as much as you like.

Working with the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 team, Adidas launched the Silver Arrow pack, a collection of fanwear inspired by the Mercedes-Benz W196 race car. Current Mercedes F1 drivers George Russell and Kimi Antonelli posed with items from the Silver Arrow collection along with professional models.
Why celebrate the W196?

The W196 wasn't the first Silver Arrow. The first Mercedes to be called a Silver Arrow was the Mercedes W25, which debuted in 1934. However, driver Juan Fangio won the 1954 and 1955 F1 World Championships with the W196, which was among the several models referred to by the group name. The Adidas Silver Arrow collection celebrates the 70th anniversary of the W196's first F1 Championship season.

Salomon releases new collaborative sneaker

When it comes to a trail sneaker, you’ll want to ensure it is both functional and stylish. While a chic sneaker comes in handy for everyday use, a trail-ready sneaker should be able to keep you comfortable on any adventure. While Salomon knows how to fuse both successfully, their latest collaboration with South Korean designer J EONGL I adds another level of style and practicality to it. Inspired by the passage of time, this new collaboration comes in two colorways that perfectly capture the inspiration of eroded cliffs and fossils. Both monochromatic versions feature a sculptural style and footwear technology that’ll catch anyone’s attention on the trails or city streets.
