EG Cappelli
Napoli
I like questions, both asking and receiving them. I tend to have a ready eye for spotting what I like and don’t mind learning all about it, so I do enquire. Who doesn’t want to know more about the good stuff?
When I get asked questions, other than the ones I can’t repeat here, they’re much in the same vein.
‘Where can I buy that’?
‘What cloth is it’?
‘Who’s your favourite necktie maker’?
Funnily enough I get asked all of these and more when I wear an EG Cappelli necktie, I did the same many years ago and thankfully someone pointed me in the right direction.









By any definition of ‘Gentleman’ Patrizio fits the bill. A man proud of his craft, its heritage and his attention to detail. All traits that resonate with me and did so from day one.
In the spirit of transparency I can reveal that this is NOT a sponsored post. Save one, his military school necktie he kindly gifted to me, I’ve purchased each and every one over fifteen and possibly nearly twenty years.
What we do at IGNOREATYOURPERIL is talk about things we like without financial encouragement or favour so as not to be accused of bias.
If it’s good we stock it, wear it and talk about it. We do all three with EG Cappelli.
He has no social media presence, he doesn’t court likes, comments or favour. He thrives on his customers delight and the subsequent word of mouth.
Patrizio delivers on quality, value and individual taste and takes great pride in doing so. Here’s how you do it…
Go to his website, with sustenance in hand, click TIES and dive in. Be prepared to lose track of time.
Start at the top if you wish - Foulard, through the Outlet opportunities all the way down to Wool Challis. If you’ve a particular colour in mind then I’m sure you’ll know the drill too.
Choose one and you’ll see this -
Therein lies how you can tweak this beautiful Wool Challis to your own taste, or leave alone to receive as is. On receipt within 12 - 15 days, if you are less than delighted, regardless of cost, I’ll buy your EG Cappelli from you at the drop of a hat. An EG Cappelli necktie in the shop is the proverbial ‘hot-cake’.
One proviso, when you buy one let me know and pics or it didn’t happen.
Oh the vicarious pleasure.
Best,
Nigel




New Capelli in the roost!
Just grabbed the lovely maroon with light blue/gray stars from the “outlet”. Will go perfectly when those navy Barbour waistcoats get back to the shop! Thanks for making me smarter (if lighter of wallet!).
