REVIEW: The Enterprise Flight necktie from Cufflinks.com is a classy and subtle way to show off your Star Trek fandom

Believe it or not, I’m someone who is very proud of their fandom. But one of my common complaints is finding high-quality, classy apparel that lets me and my family show off our love of Star Trek in a way that also works well with our personal style. Don’t get me wrong, I love a graphic tee as much as the next person, but outside of that, the choices of licensed merchandise is limited.

Enter Cufflinks.com, who have created a good-sized collection of officially-licensed Star Trek accessories, including ties, tie bars, money clips, and (of course) cufflinks. When the team over there got in touch and offered to send me a tie to review, I jumped at the chance.

I tested out the Enterprise Flight Blue Stripe Men’s Tie. It’s 100% silk and retails at $58.00 (although Daily Star Trek News fans can get a discount - more on that later).

This tie is stylish, it feels great, and it’s definitely something I would be proud to give as a gift to a tie-wearer in my social circle. It’s classy in that it shows off your Star Trek fandom without being in-your-face, and the next time we’re allowed to get together for work parties, it’ll certainly be a conversation starter.

The Enterprise Flight tie is navy blue, with a diagonal azure-colored double stripe. It’s a slim tie, cut a bit narrower than a standard tie (but not skinny), and it looks really modern. Just above where your jacket would button, the stripe breaks with an azure silhouette of the U.S.S. Enterprise - no bloody A, B, C or D. The 100% silk material feels soft but not slippery, with a gentle shine that creates texture, but doesn’t look cheap.

I would highly recommend Cufflinks.com’s Enterprise Flight tie to any tie-wearers who want to zhuzh up their classy work attire with a subtle bit of fandom. It will also make a really great gift this holiday season.
