Thought I’d share something a lil different, I saw the insta ad for the Tokyo pop up and it was so weird. I was in Tokyo last summer and snapped a pic in the alley of this cool green car. Totally random, but same car in the ad from the other day.

Anybody seeing a lot of “new with tags” drake’s ties on marketplaces like mercari and Vinted? It seems like a lot, compared to say ties that have been lightly used etc.

Is there a booming market for fakes? I would have thought with so few people wearing ties today, it’s kinda a niche market to be faking but I’m probably being naive. Does anyone have any experience of fakes or otherwise?

(PS attached photo is indicative of what I’m seeing, not suggesting anything amiss with these items)

Size 38. $550 for the indigo rinse; $450 for the ecru. Parting with these because I recently bought a size 36 chore jacket from Drake’s and realized that size is a much better fit for me. The indigo rinse is in mint condition, I purchased it only a few months ago and have barely worn it. Selling the ecru for $450 because, while it’s in great condition, there are some minor blue marks on the bottom inside of the jacket near the pockets. I tried to capture that in the photos.

US based, happy to ship wherever. Also happy to negotiate the price down a bit if you’re interested in purchasing both.

I’ve loved Drake’s ties ever since I first visited the London store in 2023.

Before visiting, I only knew the name Drake’s, but while I was in London, I made the trip all the way from Japan to Savile Row to see the store for myself.

My first impression was that the atmosphere was on another level. The beautifully displayed items were a feast for the eyes.

As I wandered around the store, completely fascinated, I eventually stopped in front of the tie section.

At first glance, every tie had its own charm — vibrant colours, distinctive patterns, and creative designs.

Since I was completely new to this style, I asked one of the staff members which tie he would recommend. He showed me a green paisley tie, which honestly wasn’t something I would normally choose. But somehow, I felt like it would open up a whole new world for me.

So I decided to buy it.

This September, I’m finally going back, and I can’t wait to visit again.

Just curious to scope any potential interest before I make the final decision to part with it

Just bagged the green wax coverall for £485 at Harvey Nichols (down from £695), a jacket I have been eyeing up for years, but it never seemed worth the full RRP. Anyone have any experience with this piece? Great bargain or still overpriced? Thoughts on quality and sizing also welcome.

Oh, and HN has a bunch of other Drake's gear on heavy discount for their members sale (free to sign up)
