LVMH;-owned London shirtmakers and haberdashers Thomas Pink have updated the iPod Commuter Tie for their upcoming Autumn Winter 2009/2010 collection.
Described as "a sophisticated 100% silk woven tie and useful mp3 storage device in one," the natty neckwear features a small pocket on the reverse of the tie designed to perfectly fit the new iPod Nano as well as other smaller mp3 players.
The music player is placed in the tie pocket to avoid having expensive devices on display or damaging the line of one's suit, while an extra fabric loop keeps wires (including headphone wires) out of sight and close to the body, leaving the hands free.
The new Commuter tie is available in eight colors - gray, charcoal, purple, blue, green, orange, red and deep pink - and will be available from Thomas Pink stores from September 2009 or online at Thomas Pink, priced at $100.
