Three rolled burgundy, gray and blue ties with contrast diagonal stripes.

Specify School Colors and Stripe Dimensions

Record diagonal direction, stripe widths, gaps, color order, full repeat, and appearance across the finished blade. Approve flat artwork and a physical sample so each variant follows the same measured specification.

School Stripe and Finishing Details

The stripe sequence gives a school tie its recognizable identity. Color, finished proportions and labels distinguish each approved version.

Stripe Direction and Repeat

Stripe widths, spacing and direction define the design. Accent lines and color order distinguish similar school or house patterns.

School and House Colors

Color references connect the base school palette to house or year variations. Each version has a defined stripe arrangement.

Size and Identification

The finished width and length suit the intended wearer group. School labels and packing codes identify each size and colorway.

Define the Stripe Layout

Record the full repeat for consistent interpretation during sampling and reorders.

  • Stripe Direction
    Show the stripe direction in artwork or a front-facing reference tie.
  • Stripe Width
    Specify each broad band or narrow accent in millimetres and identify its color.
  • Stripe Spacing
    Measure the gap or ground-color width between accents; descriptions such as close or wide are insufficient.
  • Color Order
    List the two or more colors in sequence and show where that sequence starts within the repeat.
  • Repeat Sequence
    Show the complete unit for unequal stripes or alternating accent groups, including every stripe and gap before the pattern repeats.
  • Finished-Blade Scale
    Review the repeat at the selected 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 cm blade width before sample approval.

Build the School Color Palette

Give each color a defined role and usable reference, then check the combined palette on the physical sample.

  • Ground Color
    Supply a Pantone textile reference, current tie, fabric swatch, photo, or approved physical sample for the dominant background.
  • Main Stripe Color
    Approve the primary contrasting school color and its proportion relative to the ground and accents.
  • Accent Stripe Color
    Check the visibility of narrower or secondary details at the proposed width and approve them on the selected material.
  • Group Variant Color
    Identify the stripe that changes for each house, year, role, campus, or program. Keep the rest of the layout fixed unless a separate design is intended.

House, Year, and Role Variants

Develop related colorways from one approved base specification, then assign each version a clear code and quantity.

  • House Variants
    Record each House name, changed accent color, artwork code, size split, and quantity in a variant table.
  • Year Group Variants
    Specify whether one stripe or the full repeat changes for each selected academic year.
  • Leadership or Role Variants
    Use buyer-approved role names, symbols, and meanings.
  • Campus or Program Variants
    Assign a unique code to each version in a shared design family so artwork, samples, packing, and reorders remain traceable.
  • Staff Coordination
    Specify whether staff ties share the student repeat or use a separate colorway or dimensions.

Prepare Stripe Artwork and Approval References

Combine visual references with measured specifications so artwork, sampling and purchasing teams use the same brief.

  • Vector Stripe Layout
    Supply new or revised designs in AI or PDF, including the full repeat, direction, measurements, color names, and finished tie width.
  • Measured Stripe Diagram
    Mark every stripe and gap in millimetres when translating a sketch or current design into production instructions. Image proportions alone are insufficient.
  • Color Reference List
    Pair each artwork color with its Pantone or approved physical reference and variant code to distinguish similar school or group colors.
  • Existing Tie or Physical Sample
    Identify the details to match and those that may change in a reorder or redesign. The new production result still requires approval.
  • Variant and Quantity Table
    List artwork code, stripe colorway, width, length, labels, packing, and quantity for every house, year, role, campus, or size SKU in the inquiry.

Keep the Approved Stripe Reference for Reorders

Record approved material, dimensions, stripe direction, measured repeat, color references, group codes, labels, packing, and quantities after sampling. For replenishment, provide the previous order reference and reconfirm specifications; material availability and production color may need further review.

Custom Striped School Tie FAQ

Custom striped school ties follow a buyer-approved stripe specification. LuxoTie can develop polyester or polyester-blend ties with school colors, stripe direction, widths, spacing, color order, repeat, tie dimensions, labels, and packing. Schools, uniform suppliers, and distributors can coordinate related house, year, role, campus, or program variants.
Send front-facing artwork or a physical reference showing the intended diagonal direction. State each stripe and gap width in millimetres, list the colors in sequence and show the complete repeat unit. Confirm the finished tie width because the same repeat can look different across a 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 cm blade. The approved sample becomes the production reference.
Send color references and identify each group variant and changed stripe. Exact color matching is not guaranteed; approve every colorway on the sample before production.
The MOQ is 100 pieces. A custom sample usually takes 5–7 days, and bulk production usually takes about 20–25 days after the stripe design and sample are approved. Timing depends on the material, dimensions, number of variants, total quantity, labels and packing. LuxoTie checks incoming materials, in-process work and finished ties against the approved sample or confirmed specification.
Send the material, tie width and length, stripe direction, measured repeat, color references, total quantity and a separate quantity for each variant or size. LuxoTie can review AI, PDF, PSD, CDR, JPG and PNG files with photos, current ties, samples, dimensions, Pantone references or weaving drawings. Also include labels, packing, destination, required date and the previous order reference when reordering.
