Following on from some months of practice, engineering and trial and error, please say hello to the brand new Motto and Crest pattern - a five piece tie in mixed shirting cottons called Barkway! Totally unique, this tie is part of the exciting range for Spring and Summer 2011 that is now arriving online. Take a look at the store for more modern ties.
Autumn is in full fall and Motto and Crest is ringing the seasonal changes with the arrival instore of some New Forest ties, including the twisted tweeds of the Cadnam and Minstead ties above. As well as tweaking tweeds, the New Forest collection mixes tweed and leather for winter weather; take a look at the collection here.
To mark the arrival of Clyde and Devonport (l-r, above) into the Kingdom collection, Thrillist London has published a rather nice piece about Motto and Crest today. Follow this link to have a read, and check out Clyde and Devonport in more detail in the Kingdom store!
The New Forest collection launched last week and there's already been some pretty frantic activity in the store. The Marchwood design (below right) has sold out (thanks to that Kempt article) and a new design, Minstead (left), has just arrived instore. Minstead is named for the New Forest resting place of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, and it twists together two traditional Holmes-esque tweeds in signature Motto and Crest style. If you'd like to get your hands on Minstead, take a look instore here. It's also not too late to get hold of Marchwood, pre-orders are being taken for the tie for delivery early November. You can pre-order either by completing an online purchase here as normal or by emailing chris@mottoandcrest.com.
There's a great post on Kempt today talking about the versatility of the Motto and Crest tie and using the Marchwood design from the new New Forest collection to illustrate the point. Have a read of it here.
Due to exceptional demand, the Poole tie in silk and leather has sold out within twelve hours of going on sale! If you'd like to get a Poole tie around your neck, have no fear, new stock will be delivered in October and you can guarantee you get yours by pre-ordering now.
If you would like to pre-order a tie, you can do so in two ways. Firstly, you can complete the purchase of Poole by clicking here and going through the online store as normal; you will then receive email notification of your October shipping date and will have your tie posted as soon as it is ready. Alternatively you can email chris@mottoandcrest.com to make arrangements.
I'm happy to say that there are a few new First Form ties now available instore, including the all-wool Wellbridge design shown below. All of the new ties are made with a 7cm width and the collection includes silk, wool and cotton ties, which means we've got all bases covered for traditional Autumn weather; rain one day, sun the next.
I'd love to hear what you think of the new ties. Contact me with your opinions!
