While we realize most of you have probably turned your attention to football and hockey, we’re still riding the wave of Orioles playoff baseball here in Maryland and our bowtie Friday pick this week is a nod to our favorite team’s post season run.  Shoot, if we had tickets for tonight’s game we’d proudly sport it for the festivities.  This week’s pick is the Pendleton Shadow Plaid and Check Bow from General Knot & Co.

As per usual when it comes to General Knot bows, this tie features a pair of complimentary fabrics.  This time around, both fabrics happen to be deadstock Pendleton wool that features a grey base and orange accents.  Though we like both options, we think the edge goes to the check.  It reminds us a bit more of a classic Orioles road uniform.  Regardless, as we begin the transition away from bright and bold and into more subdued tones, this bow is going to see some serious wear over the next few months.
