Another newbie review of the bow tie (received wrong color)

First of all the quality of the bow tie is not that bad at all. I have already bought 5 other PenSee flies. I am happy with my purchase - the price is good and the fabric/tailoring is good and holding up so far. The material roughly corresponds to the general composition of long polyester ties. As for the wrong color, this item says "dark blue" bow tie. However, I received a black butterfly but with the same design. No problem, a quick email to PenSee and they were more than willing to help resolve the situation. PenSee said they no longer had the navy blue and offered a replacement. I just decided on a different tie. My client's photo shows it is a black tie but with the same design. I usually buy shirts with a 17 inch neckline. My hook leaves about 3-4 holes which makes me wonder if it's suitable for large necks, but that's just my experience - again I'm totally new to the whole looping arena so maybe I'm not tying it properly. By the way, while writing this review, I noticed that some PenSee flies have gone up in price (from 4.99+stud to 7.99+stud). Not sure if that means all individual flies going up in price, but just a warning. If I can take a picture of my bow tie, I will. (PenSee Black and White Floral Polka Dots)

Pros
  • Quick replacement
Cons
