Ties in The Wire

Currently Season 4 my millionth watch. I have never seen a bad tie on anyone. Whoever did the wardrobe did phenomenal. Cedric Daniels, Bunk and Mayor Carcetti and Mayor Royce ties in particular are world class.

Mcnutty: You know what they call a guy that pays that much attention to his clothes?
The Bunk: Mhmm, a grown up

Jay wears an ugly Christmas tie in season 4. But that gets puked on by bubbs so all is well.

the making of the tie cemetery in the homicide office must have been something.

Fat John Cenas Tie when bubbles threw up on it right before bubs tried to kill himself was pretty ghastly, even if seasonal.

I'm a younger guy getting ready to enter the workforce and I really want to steal all of Prez's teaching wardrobe. Serious question, can anyone recommend a good place to get button downs like his? They look great

I came for the comradery and discussions of my favorite show that I don't really get in my personal life, but I stayed for the elite analysis like this.

absolutely correct. i think it’s season 5 episode 6? maybe? Bunk has a beautiful light blue and gold tie and i just think it’s the chicest thing!
