Don't choke the tie; keep the knot snug but comfortable.

This classic, slightly asymmetrical knot works best with standard-width ties and pairs well with most collar types.

Tighten the knot by pulling down on the wide end while sliding the knot up to your collar [1]. 💡 Tips for Success

The wide end should be on your right and the small end on your left. Position the wide end so it hangs much lower (about 12–15 inches below the narrow end) [1].

Pull the wide end up through the neck loop from underneath [1].

Stand in front of a mirror, pop your collar, and button your top button. Drape the tie around your neck.

Feed the wide end down through the knot you just created in the front [1].

The tip of the wide end of your tie should just graze the top of your belt buckle.
