Jacob Alexander Mens Knit Tie - Bridal Pink

First purchased on March 24th, 2014, it is now June 12th, 2015. Have owned this tie for a little over a year now and have only worn it on a few occasions, and I wear ties casually for work on a daily basis.The color is Bridal Pink and is much duller compared to the image advertised. Right out of the package it had a somewhat dusty look and feel to it. Like this particular tie had been in their storage for months or years without being purchased. If I recall, it came in a plain plastic polybag.I own many other knit ties from Uniqlo which are either 100% acrylic or 100% polyester-- much softer and smoother, plus same price or even cheaper. This 100% microfiber tie feels rather cheap but even for the price I would have expected better quality. It may just be this color in particular or maybe I just got a bad one, but I never purchased another of this type. It still just sits there in my closet hanger. I personally would not recommend this particular tie to anyone.
