101st Abn_Wt.Trans, 101st Abn_Wt.Trans, 101st A... Tie

Really disappointed. I thought this would come looking like every tie I had ever bought, whether in silk or polyester - with some thickness of material. This is not made in what I would call tie material - it is almost like pressed paper, is extraordinarily flat. On the front of the tie you can see white spots where the loop ties in on the reverse side. I will never wear this tie. It looks absurdly flat and was a total waste of money. The 101st eagles are well depicted - problem is that they are not on the type of material of which ties are made the world over. I felt really ripped off. Why advertise this as a tie when you are selling something made of totally inappropriate material ?

The Pageant Tie is just what I wanted and everyone at church wants one. I have worn it several days now and each day more people come to me to see it and say how great it is. The printing is just as it should be. Each photo is clear and the color is great.

I bought this tie for a cosplay of Haruhi Fujioka for Halloween and anime conventions. It feels very nice and silky. It's my first tie ever, and I'm a pretty big fan since I always wanted a tie. It was longer than I expected it to be (quite a plus), but the purple stripe was also thinner than I expected it to be (a slight bit of a downer, but I don't mind too much). I had never used Zazzle before, but I am very impressed with the shipping time. I was looking for places to get a tie like this so last minute since the ties like this on Amazon were incompatible with Prime. Thus, I ended up here. I paid for express shipping, expected delivery October 30-31, and it arrived in the morning on the 30th. Very impressed. I might just use Zazzle again. The print job was okay. The colors were perfect, but as you can see in the pictures, the stripe was a little off-center, and there was a kink in the stripe around where it transitions from the wide end to the thin end. It should work perfectly for my cosplay, but it was a little too carelessly print to be a very professional tie.
