Available through our site or through any VICTORY Barber location, these limited edition, made in Canada suspenders are as casual as they are formal leaving the wearer to decide their own style. We've been working with VICTORY since the beginning and are privileged to call them our friends.

Fluevog Brogue Bow Ties

John Fluevog has been making unique soles for unique souls for over 45 years. His footwear is known for its top quality and comfort, while pushing the boundaries of wild. With almost half a century in the business, he knows a thing or two about footwear and accessories, which is why we were so thrilled to work on The Brogue Bow Tie with him and his team. Made in Canada by people you'd like. This is a double-sided, butterfly bow tie with custom brogued organic cotton sateen on the one side, and silk on the other. That means, if you know how to tie a bow tie (instructions are on the box) you can tie it four different ways. Which could...
