And a red tie with a small blue pattern or a blue tie with a red pattern can create a tie that looks purple. A tie with a red background and a tiny all-over yellow pattern may appear to be orange.

The shirts look good unbuttoned, but they have a problem when buttoned up. When I wear it with a tie, you can see just a bit of the second pattern at the neck. It contrasts and looks poorly designed.

It normally sucks when a white shirt gets up close and personal with coffee or condiments, but Mair/Wennel's Dirt Pattern Material prove stains can actually be awesome.
