#2 The kingfisher tie

| A kingfisher tie, best worn with a blue shirt |
“I am looking for a man's tie,” the lady wrote, “material irrelevant BUT it must have a picture of a Kingfisher [the bird] on it at the front!! AND in colour.”
We had to wonder... how many ties are decorated on the back? And how many with Kingfishers that aren't birds?
Do you own a bird-themed tie? Please post your photos below.
If you have a case for The Thing Detectives, please get in touch through the usual channels.
A quick google of kingfisher gives - an airline, a home improvement company, a lager (yep you know the one), and a natural toothpaste with no colourings.
ReplyDeleteCant see many of these making waves in the tie market. Then again, how many people have a tie with a tube of toothpaste on. Definitely a niche in the market there.
Toothpaste ties... maybe more of a cravat?
DeleteThe pilots from Kingfisher airlines wear ties with the company logo on: https://www.proifr.com/images/testimonials/b137150f3626ceb77f7510ed3eeba159.jpg
But as their logo is a Kingfisher, we're back to square one.
Maybe there's a "Fisher King" tie with Robin Williams on it? And if there is, would it count?
