Bow Ties, Anyone wear one?

Commander Quan · 03-22-2012, 02:44 PM

I've started wearing bow ties instead of the standard straight ties last fall. I don't need to wear a tie for work, but the occasions where a tie is needed, they're a nice change of pace. Anyone else wear them? This is my collection so far.

I'm a regular tie kind of guy.
Everytime I think of Bow ties, I think of vvvvvvvvvvvv

I only wear bow ties with a tux.

I sometimes wear a bow tie - but not around my neck.

Sure, laugh all you want, I'm tough enough to take it.
Did I mention it was a clip-on bow tie?

Now THAT is impressive!

I am neither young enough nor old enough to pull off a bowtie.

Ive only worn one twise and they where tied by my girl for me as i have enough trouble with normal ties.

Though they do look good on certain people we will need a photo to determine if you look right for one.

croatan · 03-22-2012, 03:51 PM

Only with formal wear for me. Nothing against them otherwise, but I can't pull them off.

Can't do it. They don't work for me.

I have wanted to for some time now. I once spent a good deal of time researching how to tie one, but never picked any up. I think they were just too darned expensive for me, IIRC. I'd still like to pick a few up at some point.

Most of mine are from TheTieBar.com. Check them out all ties are $15 and flat rate shipping.
