Just received some J. Press ties, ordered because they were slightly less expensive than the Brooks Brothers equivalents.
Terribly disappointed: incredibly flimsy.
Might as well be unlined.
Where is the world headed?

I stop in the J. Press regularly to browse and there is very, very little I would ever buy in that store. I do like their trousers but their ties, as Anonymous says, are incredibly flimsy. With Brooks and Press gone to the dogs, I have been ordering bespoke more from shirtmaker Hemrajani and tiemaker Sam Hober. Much better stuff and cheaper at that.

That's a shame about the ties, what kind did you order? I ordered one of their striped raw silk ties a few months ago and have been perfectly satisfied with its quality - very sturdy!

I realize this is off subject, but do you know or know anyone who might have the J Press promo code. I see two items that are on sale 25% but 70% with the code. If you can help, please let me know.

Thanks

Ignore my request for the J Press code, it is winter09. Thanks anyway.

I absolutely love this. I am a female, but have always been terribly fond of J. Press. This is a bit silly, but I wrote a small post about it here last year:

Plus, they had no short sleeve button up shirts. I bought nothing and left
