Turkey Call
The Fall/Holiday collection is always an exciting one at Bird Dog Bay. Alongside featuring the bulk of our sporting themes, we’re also able to include a number of silks which work perfectly with the season. And while it seems every tie company has a Christmas tie or two, it occurred to us a few years back that not everyone offered a choice for Thanksgiving–enter our “Turkey Call” tie!
While “Turkey Call” is our latest offering, it certainly isn’t our first. For a few seasons prior to this, we offered a tie called “Turkey Trot,” featuring a tom and two hens. While a wonderful choice, we returned to the drawing board this season with “Turkey Call,” and like to think we’ve done pretty well!
Featuring a tom placed on garland, “Turkey Call” is a step and repeat pattern that is available in gold, red, and olive. Perfect for the season, “Turkey Call” is best worn with a navy blazer or your favorite tweed sport coat, and guarantees you won’t look like a turkey yourself this fall!
Tried and True- Classic Ties

Bird Dog Bay Bow Ties
Our bows are unique. Whimsical…sophisticated… and truly one of kind pieces of art! I am sure a lot of people say that, but we feel ours truly are. Hand drawn, hand made, and hand crafted and inspected… They are 100 % silk pieces of art and joy meant to be tied and enjoyed by all. Ski Jump is a fun new bow design this Fall available in both Navy (pictured) and royal blue… You don’t need to barrel down a mountain at 60+ miles per hour or throw yourself 800+ feet to pull off this skiing bow tie. For a first place combination, match it with one of our tightly patterned dress shirts.
We also have another new fall favorite, pictured above… in When Pigs Fly… Surely, pigs won’t have to fly and hell won’t have to freeze over for you to look great in this bow tie–much like our pink friend here, the only place you’ll go when you put this on is up when you tie this one on!
All of our bow ties are adjustable from 15″ to 19.5” and have a width of 2.5”. All bows are to-tie, not pre-tied. If you’d like us to pre-tie before shipping, please let us know… We will take care of it for ya! Order one today, and get the conversation started!
Our new pedigree socks!
We are excited to introduce our latest collection of men’s hosiery! Part of our new Pedigree collection, these six styles are available in mid-calf and new over-the-calf varieties. Using the finest Peruvian pima cotton, our Pedigree socks present a refined look for the wearer. Mid-Calf options available in brown, blue, and green; Over-The-Calf available in black, brown, and navy. These puppies are sure to give you that extra sox appeal you have been looking for.
Bird Dog Bay Belts
Belt Business is a Cinch!
Available today are new Italian woven leather belts, all handcrafted in New Orleans. With nine colors available from navy to pink to orange, we have the ideal choice no matter the outfit. All our belts feature Italian calf tab ends and a polished brass buckle. Each belt has a 35mm width; for an ideal fit, order a size larger than your waist (i.e. a 34″ waist wears a 36″ belt).
Deer Season
Deer have always been a seasonal motif in Bird Dog Bay collections. From Steve’s old “Rudy and The Gang” tie featuring reindeer to our “Big Bucks” tie, more often than not will a fall collection feature something deer related!
Two of the most recent designs to be featured are “Deer Season” and “The Buck Stops Here.” “Deer Season” is a standard of ours, featuring a mounted buck head with two crossed rifles. Given the sheer number of silk designs related to bird hunting, whether upland or duck, we thought it wise to give a nod to the deer hunters who wear our ties.
The second design, “The Buck Stops Here” is an entirely new silk for this fall! With a majestic looking buck parading through a swampy marsh, “The Buck Stops Here” is a more open design which accommodates one of our tightly checked dress shirts with ease. Geared toward the deer enthusiast, you can show your love in two great colors this season, red and orange
