Where will he likely wear the tie?

Work - Go for something a little more conservative (Distino Silk Tie No.32 is a good example).

Formal Occasions - Visit the "Formal Collection" page within the Distino website and any tie set there should suit your needs. Distino No.24 is a modern, classy design and has proved very popular.

Social Outings - Be prepared to be bold whilst remembering that it is a gift. Distino No.57 is a perfect modern design which could be suited better to the younger generation.

What is his age group?

To late 20's - Modern designs include the vertical striped ties, intricate designs (Distino No.67) and even obscure patterns (such as Distino No.70) can be popular. Modern pastel shades such as Distino No.35 are also very popular.

30's to late 40's - Fairly conservative designs should be your choice with this age group. We suggest Distino No.22 or No.55 as a 'safe bet' when it comes to buying a tie for the middle-aged man!

50's + - Classical conservative designs such as Distino No.16 and No.1 are popular selections amongst this age group.
