I know men think they get the raw end of he deal when it comes to accessories but I completely disagree.  In my diligent research, I have found that men’s accessories are often more well-made because men are more discerning about the purchases.  There are tones of cheap accessories stores for two main reasons:  1.  women love a deal  2.  Accessories man a woman feel more feminine, particularly when most of her wardrobe is black.  A man’s shopping behavior is based in longevity – he will spend more because he expects it to last.

Seigo is the best of both worlds.  A quiet, subdued men’s accessory shop in NYC with two locations:  Midtown and the Upper East Side.  The accessories are handmade 100% Japanese silk, straight from the mills in Kyoto and hand silk-screen printed in Niigata.  The ties and bow ties rival Zegna and Hermes and a 25% of the price.

I must confess that I have taken to wearing their bow ties. Thanks to a little youtube video, I learned how to one in under a minute and I must confess I love it against something ultra-feminine.   There scarves are handmade as well and I have one in blue that is stunning.  I think my Hermes scarves are in for a brief retirement…

Whether it is cufflinks or ties or perhaps a beautiful scarf for your favorite female…the only way to go is Seigo…
