Fordite Necktie, Detroit Agate "Jeepite" printed tie, by Cyberoptix

$ 45.00

Not just a random image-search/stock photo piece of Fordite! We slab-cut, shaped, polished and photographed our own material and then made a kaleidoscopic pattern from many images composited from that same "stones," from our own collection that we'll eventually make into jewelry - but fabric first! Fabric also printed in house - not outsourced. New from Cyberoptix. No ai, no swirly twirly filters, just tedious cutting out and collaging of some of the most interesting parts.

  • Vegan safe, silky-soft microfiber
  • Eco-friendly, full color sublimation print
  • Necktie print size: 36" from bottom point.
  • Knot: Design shows in the knot for most wearers
  • One face of fabric is printed, solid white reverse
  • Tie size: Choose standard, narrow, skinny, or standard XL
  • Care: Hand wash, spot clean, or dry clean.
  • Creases and folds? Gently iron medium.

Jeep Gladiator Fordite (also called Detroit agate or Motor City Agate) is a rare collector's material made from hardened, baked layers of automotive paint overspray collected from the Stellantis assembly plant in Toledo, Ohio where Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators are painted.
