Go Hogs! - Necktie

My guy, maybe like a lot of guys, prefers blue jeans & casual shirts although he works in an office & labels himself a "cubicle monkey" since he's Geographer/GIS/mapper, he sometimes HAS to wear a tie which he dislikes. I've been with him for 13 years. Never bought him a tie because it's not his style & due to his dislike of ties. He owned only 1 tie which was nice but didn't really fit his personality. He's an Alum of the University of Arkansas so I searched the zazzle site for the "razorback" logo but there wasn't anything on the site with the "hog" on it. I think there was only a "u of A" logo for the school but nothing on it which if you know razorback fans, they've got to have the hog/pig on a lot of their University of Arkansas memorabilia & not just the letters/words. As I searched the zazzle site I came across this "vintage hog" on the tie...Knew right away I had to get it for my ANTI-TIE GUY because not only did it have the cool, antique nod to the Razorbacks but it fit my guys personality with it's tongue-in-cheek with a wink attitude towards wearing ties which suits my guy perfectly. It was a hit on Christmas morning which says a lot since my guy emphatically dislikes ties...especially getting ties as gifts but the vintage graphic & sarcastic, snarky impression/intention behind it made it the perfect & probably the only tie he'll ever want get as a gift again... This tie compliments a variety of neutral colors, white, tan, brown, khaki & black. The vintage hog came out perfect. It capture the detail of the snarl & fun yet cheeky character of the razorback. The graphic was vibrant & clear without smears which says a lot since it's printed on white silk background.

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.

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.
