Blast From The Past

SPACE INVADERS TIE


For men who used to be the boys at the local arcade, this Space Invaders tie is the perfect balance of 80s adolescence and grown up charm. Inspired by the popular arcade video game, this tie looks just like the game screen full of rows and rows of attacking aliens. The navy and red colors make it a suitable grown-up tie that only reveals its humorous subject matter upon close inspection. Laser not included. Designed by artist Artist Josh Bach. Hand finished in New York.

Birthday present for game designer son. Can be worn anytime -- will be noticed by other gamers, but not cartoonish. Casual and professional.

Comments about SPACE INVADERS TIE:

I bought the tie for a gift for my husband and he loves it. It's the perfect combination between stylish and fun, and can be worn for both casual and formal engagements (the pattern is discreet enough that no one notices what it is--unless they look closely, and then it serves as a conversation piece). Good quality. Good price.

Comments about SPACE INVADERS TIE:

I was specifically looking for a video game themed tie and uncommon goods was the only place that I found a nice one. (Think Geek had one but I did not like it). I wore this to present to a VC for a new video game store. I don't think it swung any decisions, but it was fun and appropriate. \n\nThe tie is about the quality of any standard non-designer tie you would get at your local department store.
