In the current market, no matter department stores, retail stores, or online necktie store, you will find that almost all neckties are tagged with “100% silk ties” but have a quite large range of prices. Here we assume that all tags are correct and the men’ ties are made of silk. Even with that, you could find the cheapest ties are lower than $10 each, most of ties are labeled around $30 - $70  each, some neckties are over $70 or even much more. They are all made of 100% silk but why the prices are so different? The essential reasons are explored in the following sections.

The biggest cost difference is based on what color dying technique the manufacture uses or what the requirement of the wholesale buyers. How are the silk tie colors coming from? There are two techniques of silk tie dying during the manufacture. One is yarn dyed and the other is printing. The first one, also named as colored woven, is a process that the yarns of silk are dyed before they are woven. It means that the color is dyed first and then the silk fabric is woven. Obviously, the printing means all the colors are printed on the woven silk fabric. That means that the necktie fabric is woven first and then the desired color is printed on the fabric. All the colors of yarn dyed silk ties are woven with the colored yarns with an expensive necktie equipment. However, the printing has no need for that machine so its cost is much less than the dyed yarn silk ties.

Mostly the expensive merchandise must have certain advantages over the cheaper one. The yarn dyed silk ties have brighter and more durable color than the printing neckties. The yarn dyed silk ties also have more vivid and real 3D feel pattern. However, the patterns of printing silk ties look plain and superficial.

Now we can judge which is which for all 100% silk ties based on the price. If under $10, usually it is the printing silk tie except a big sale. $30 - $70 is the normal price for the dyed yarn silk ties in the current market. The difference is mainly for the store brand, store location, silk tie brand itself. If over $70 or even hundred, definitely a luxury brand if you are the fan of a brand.
