More About Windsor Neckwear
What began in 2008 as a common passion for men's neckwear has
become a rapidly growing business venture between Michael McPherson Jr.
and Mace Neal III. The concept for Windsor Neckwear was first thought
of on one of many shopping voyages between Michael and Mace. One day
while shopping for a new tie in a popular men's store the duo walked
away disappointed in the lack of variety and similarity in a sea of what
looked like repetitive ties! After a brief discussion about the lack
luster experience Mike said "we should start our own necktie line" and
Mace simply responded "yeah we should". From that day forward the duo
never looked back. Windsor Neckwear began with a total $80.00
investment between Mike and Mace who purchased fabric and a quick sew
necktie pattern. Initially they began making hand made ties, ascots,
and pocket squares.
The plan was to always have their line manufactured on a larger
scale so they spent the first year and a half learning the manufacturing
business and building capital to develop their first line. In late
2009 after garnering the support of a manufacturing facility they made
their first line of four designs. There were several issues with their
first experience but they managed to sell out of all four designs in
three weeks! From that point Windsor Neckwear has expanded to offering a
vast array of beautiful neckties each unique in their own way.
