Escarjoe‘s handmade ties are all one of kind pieces that feature fun imagery that range from cute whales to funky floral prints. Joe Kelley is a local artist from Wilmington, NC.
He says, “Living in a one horse, one light town, I was forced to act on what I thought was creative. I started printing on anything, from undergarments to t-shirts. Finally, it was ties that brought me to a new horizon. A zesty one at that… ‘I want to be known as the clever guy… but I still want to be taken seriously on the job. And man do I hate changing after work to look more laid back.’ Here you have it, the solution to all your problems (dress wise). A tie designed to demand respect, be sleek, comfortable and disgustingly irresistible. That’s right, look as great as you feel.”
The 100% handmade tie in the photo above is the Whales Tie by Escarjoe sold exclusively at Edge fo Urge.
