Is there any reason why the ties or so long? 71 inches will make it nearly impossible for all but the extraordinarily tall to tie at a reasonable length.

SpngeHi, You can tie the knot a variety of ways, and also adjust the blades after trying. I am 5'11", and usually use a four in hand knot, which then sits nicely on the belt of the trouser.

aazodiI'm 5'8 and all ties are all within 57-59 inches which is usually standard length and I tie a four in hand. These ties are are at least a foot longer than that. There are very few knots, if any, that are going to take up 71 inches worth of tie and sit within the acceptable range on someone of average height. The longest I've ever seen a RTW tie is around 68 inches (and they were listed as extra-long) and these are listed as even longer. The listed length of 71 inches is so long that there is either some conscious design choice that I would like some clarification on, or there's been some miscommunication about the actual length.
For what it's worth, this website: https://www.touchofmodern.com/sales/monsieur-fox-9db0675e-800b-4326-b2c7-80020e0697d2?bk=pause has some of these ties listed with very different dimensions.
