Hands down, raw silk matka makes for one of our favorite warm-weather ties. The slub and finish keep a suit from feeling too slick (matka is less shiny than regular old silk, with a knobbly, hand-loomed texture) but it's still neat enough for formal occasions. Like so many of our other ties, this one is unlined and untipped with hand-rolled edges, which gives it a lighter and more relaxed feel than most of the others in your closet. It's made just for us in our forever-go-to 8cm width: not too skinny, not too fat, and designed to sit in perfect harmony with both the lapel of our jackets and the length of our shirt collars.
