Tie Bars/Clips

bugler

Anyone know a place to pick one up? You don't see them too often. I know Debenhams have them but they're a bit..meh.

Tie-rack i'd say have them, possibly a bit meh as well however.

You might be able to pick nicer ones up in Weir & Sons on Grafton street

PrivateEye

would have said W&S myself too, spot on.

they look the dogs, unless of course you buy a crap novelty one like......

hideous things. they don't look the dogs, they just look b0ll0x. the ultimate in pretentious pointlessness.

Must admit Bugler they are a bit pointless, kinda old-school looking.

Are you gettin one as part of a 'theme' or as a daily-wearing type thing?

copacetic

errrmmm, they certainly aren't pointless.

they attach your tie to the shirt so it doesn't hang down and catch in machinery, patients etc etc.

got a nice plain one in one of those stalls (TieRack ?) downstairs in Jervis 2 weeks ago.

hard to find any though, most mens shops where i thought they'd have some didn't....
was going to try Louis Copeland and BT after that place in the jervis, so they might have some, although probably pricey enough.

well the only person in my work who wears one just happens to be the biggest snob i've ever come across.

i'm just saying i don't like them, same as i would say about something like dungarees
