Founded in 1977, Drake's started by producing only high-quality men's scarves, and later gradually produced handmade ties and printed silk handkerchiefs, and is now the largest independent producer of men's handmade ties in the UK, as well as Japanese and American fashion brands and retailers such as Rei Kawakubo and J.

Drake's scarves are men's scarves made in Italy, Scotland or India in a wide range of fabrics including cashmere, wool, silk, cotton, modal and a variety of blends. Drake's printed scarves are one of its major features, mostly made of cashmere, wool, silk, modal, etc., because cashmere fibers are easy to eat color when printing, and will be slightly dull in color, color saturation is reduced, and the clarity of the pattern and the overall outline are not as delicate as silk scarves. However, Drake's printed scarves are blended and have excellent color and pattern treatment, the scarf is saturated with color, clear patterns and complex patterns, which are perfect for matching with solid colors to brighten up the overall look. In addition to the blended printed cashmere scarves, the pure cashmere scarves are mainly in mainstream solid colors and checks, with calm colors and luster, and some of them are supplemented by hand embroidery, and the styles are more diverse.
 
The price of Drake's scarves is mostly concentrated in 100-200 pounds, in addition to scarves, Drake's ties as a leading product have a high reputation in the world, and often appear in the male protagonists of international blockbusters, highlighting the strong British gentleman's style, and men who pay attention to matching may wish to choose.
