    Garter Ties

    Matt,

    Any idea when you'll be getting the Gold color and the Dark Red (not claret, but the color above it like a muted red) in stock?

    Yesterday

    As a matter of fact, they just came in yesterday. I spent most of the afternoon pricing and putting out the new stock. So go ahead and order the garters with impunity, all colors are now in stock and available!

    Order with impunity!

    Someone should translate that into Gaelic or Latin and the STM could use it as their motto....

    So sayeth one who has already ordered traditional garter ties with impunity....and now has TEN pair...a rainbow of color ready for any occasion...

    I really thought that ties were kind of hokey . . . until I tired a pair.

    Ron has the right idea!

    Jim's right - I too thought they were a bit strange, right up until I tried a pair. Now my elastic and ribbon garters are feeling quite forgotten...
