Men’s furnishings are really the glue that holds a dapper don together. Imagine stylish Sean Connery without a fabulous belt…or Denzel Washington sans a haute tie…..or Samuel Jackson less a hat – – kinda of hard huh? They are all stylish men in their own right but, none are themselves without the smaller accouterments that finish their look!
What we’re saying is it’s the small items that finish the big picture. Jesse is the creator of Vittorio J ties, one of those small items that has such a big impact. To get yours (actually two), simply (1) post a comment to tell us which Vittorio J tie you like the best and (2) become a fan of Vittorio J on Facebook. It’s that easy — and on June 16th, we’ll announce the winner of two Vittorio J ties! In the meantime, read all about Jesse and his fabulous ties below.
If you talked with Jesse, you’d have a new found respect and love for the work he does…to make men stylish, one at a time. A tie is just a tie is just a tie, right? But wait, Vittorio J ties have a few essential elements in the mix: craftsmanship, innovative designs, and exclusivity. They are painstakingly thought out and designed so the guy in the next office isn’t wearing the same thing. After his first client was secured, Jesse thought “One down, a million more to go!”
And he’s honest too – – when asked what his one must-have would be if stuck on an island, you’d think he’d say one of his ties (and we know he’d be lying….) but, he said his To Boot Turner two-tone brown leather shoes; which he loves and takes care of like they’re his child! Beyond growing up in the midst of fashion and loving it from the start, Jesse’s day-to-day inspirations come from the streets of NYC with its many colors and patterns.
Next up for Vittorio J is the Exclusives Collection: hand-numbered limited edition ties, handmade bar tacks and Ossiticina oil, yarn count 50% higher than the industry standard, double slip-stitching to prevent wrinkles, exposed loop accessible at the wider end, and Italian silk.
Jesse is all set to be famous: he takes his contact with every person very seriously so don’t be surprised to get a quick tweet or Facebook hello from him along the way….and now is your chance to get two pieces of his fastly ascending star! Quick — click — post — and be entered to win!

The gray one works best for my type of job and would be good for any dark suit I’ve got.
When would you wear the orange one? Business or a night in Vegas?
Charles- the orange may appear to be loud but with a soft blue micro-check shirt and khaki suit, you’d be in business! The key is to keep the rest of your outfit neutral and just focus on bringing out one of the lighter colors in the tie!!
I personally like the orange tie because i believe a tie should make a statement which sets itself apart from any suit. The orange tie can be worn with several different color suits.
I like the orange, its great for summer and my man likes to different from everyone else at work.
Both ties and colors are a good look. I work in a more traditional work environment working for a finance company in mid-town Manhattan, which would normally lead to the gray tie. But by today’s standards, fashion is beyond the “Norm”. Today we make statements in our clothing selections, even in the traditional corporate environments (it maybe subtle but we make them).I consider myself the perfect mix, an “Out of the box/ Traditional” type of man when making my fashion statement. So, the orange tie would get some wear during the spring and summer days. When I started many years ago, every man wore only white shirts and very traditional ties. All solids no bright colors at all. Today, cuff links are replaced with colored silk knots and It’s no longer taboo to wear colored shirts (within reason Lol). But as we all know a tie can pull it all together! A classic blue, black or charcoal gray solid or pin striped suit with a splash of color on a nice tie goes a long way.
I like your Tes J Six Fold out of your collection the most, but I would roll with the orange stripe tie out of the 2 on this page. I like the unique play on stripes.
I like both ties. Both off a bit of variety tot he noraml grey/blue and boring strips. I believe ties are the ultimate way for a man to accessorize and add that bit of spice to his outfit. Next to shoes and belts the tie is the way to make the statement!!!
They would make gread Father’s Day gifts.
The grey one of course (cause grey is my fav color).. I checked out the pics on Vittorio’s face book page and these are nice. The fabric and style are awesome.
All of my Clients love Vittorio J.. The ESPN Sports casters wear them on air regularly.. And my NBA, NFL and MLB clients have been wearing them during the regular season and during the playoffs. The ties are incredible and the quality is amazing.. Love the bold colors and prints.. These ties are in a class all there own.. Far superior to all the other high-end ties on the market.. Jesse is a genuis!!! -Maria Styles Theodoris
Is the orange one called ‘Sugar’? I’m definitely digging that!
William – the orange tie is called Sugar…and has been seen on the likes of several of the ESPN sportscasters!
I am feeling the orange one with a dark suit.
If I had to choose, “C” (both) would be my choice. But if it is one over the other then I can see the gray tie in the hands of the woman in my life as she helps me finish off the look of complementing my favorite suit.
Both ties are hot and I’d rock either one. However, if I had to choose, it would be the earth-tone beige stripes. The design is eye catching, yet smooth and sophisticated. You don’t see very many ties that color and I would where it to work and to play.
Even though I don’t wear ties that much anymore I’m a fan of cool colors and designs. I would make either of these fly. Most definitely the colors dictate appropriateness so if I had to pick one would go with the gray. Love the design. Would pair with a solid gray and enhance with a nice patterned purple pocket square probably polka dot!
I like both as well, I’d prefer the orange verus the conservative grey!
The orange tie is best. You have to have some swagger to pull off a bright orange tie!
The orange tie has personality…the gray tie is a little boring and expected…in comparison to the gray I’d go with the orange tie.
