Venerable design blog CORE77 picks out this year's 77 under $77 most coveted/best design objects/books/and causes to donate your loot to. Hugest thanks in the universe to the editors for including the TieLab!
Cyberoptix Tie Lab: Ties That Don't Suck!
$40 microfiber (w/ wood box), $50 silk, (w/ wood box)
The original Ties That Don't Suck. Hand-screenprinted neckwear in a premium wood gift-packaging that's Forest Stewardship Council certified. The TieLab manufactured a maligned accessory in a maligned city, quietly hoping to turn around the perception of both to one of subversive enjoyment.
With the economy being rather crap right now, we sure can use tips on where to find the good, clever stuff in exchange for comparatively few duckets. People always comment that my prices are too low, but I'm a stickler for not raising them just because there's some obtuse need for design objects to cost a lot. I call BS! (And it's my initials, I can't wear it out...)
If anyone is looking to send the TieLab presents, look to this list. We especially like the throwing star magnets.
