In 1892 Giueseppe Sartori opened what would become the Altea Ties shop in Milan on the corner between Via Verri and Via Montenapoleone, an area which almost a century later was to become the epicenter of world fashion. Driven by his pursuit of quality and extraordinary good taste, he soon built up a loyal clientele who bought ties in antique oriental brocades, carefully crafted at the back of the shop. For the time the brand was highly evocative, a special name was used and the Altea ties as we know them today were born, the name Altea borrowed from a hardy, perennial plant.

Still handmade today in Italy, Altea Ties bring an air of refinement to any outfit. DeCalo Fashion is proud to offer a collection of Altea ties at our famously discounted prices so you, like the sophisticates of 19^th century Milan, can enjoy the quality and standards laid out by Mr. Sartori in 1892.

“Fubu is about Pride and Respect in what you wear and who you are.”

The same ideals that brought Daymond Johns to found FUBU in 1992 as a forward thinking urban sportswear company are reflected in the new collection of formal wear by FUBU Suits: FUBU The Collection. The ultimate in street smart men’s formal wear.

Our line of FUBU Suits from FUBU The Collection include single breasted suits in 3 and 4 button styles. Retail prices for this line of suits ranges from $395 to $1,500 but here at DeCalo Fashion our team of buyers have secured them at prices up to 77% off of retail.

FUBU Suits feature a relaxed fit and innovative style that will look as good in the office as they will in the club.

Street smart, urban formal wear. FUBU Suits – The Collection.

1. Short Sleeve Shirt with a Tie: Short sleeved shirts are usually deemed casual while a tie makes things formal. Please, do not combine the two!
2. Shine Your Shoes: Most men do not take the time to prep there shoes. Shoes should still be shined prior to wearing and cleaned after being worn. Bottom line is, have a nice pair or two, and take care of them right. And no, ‘real nice’ sneakers don’t count!
3. Is it flooding?: Your pants should always be long enough that they cover your socks. No ifs, ands or buts about it.
4. Belts are Your Friend: Don’t let your pants sag low. Wear a belt! Real gentlemen don’t reveal their bottom to the world on a daily basis.
5. Sock It To Me: Please make sure socks match your pants. This ensures a more clean look from shoes, to socks, to trousers. Not that we have anything against socks, but please don’t ever wear them with sandals… ever.
6. Matchy matchy: The myth is true – your belt and shoes should match.
7. Is it flooding? Part 2: This time, we’re talking about your sleeves. Sleeves should fit properly and allow for about ½ an inch of your shirt sleeve to show.

I’ve never seen a guy with his pants hangin’ low with a hot significant other. Nor have I ever seen a man with his crack out or his pants flooding to his ankles as the CEO of a large company. Dress to impress. Reap the benefits.
