I liked the Tie Interceptor because it was faster but the Tie Advanced and the Tie Defender kind of felt like they were TOO good, you know?

why would you bother with anything other than four in hand and half/full windsor?

everything else is going to look like one of those three or it's going to look too flamboyant for professional wear

half windsor is the only one you really need to know in real life tbqh (to be quite honest) imho (in my humble opinion)

I tie exclusively with Nicky, Shelby (Pratt), and Plattsburgh as my favorite. Windsor and Four-in-hand can die in a fire.

There's an app for that, and any adult who isn't functionally retarded can learn how to tie his tie in 15 minutes.

I used to do a windsor, then I got lazier and did a half, now I do a four in hand if I ever wear a tie which is much rarer lately.

The Pratt knot, much like Beefeater Gin and the Buick LaCrosse, is the favored knot of upper-middle class stooges.

Half or Full Windsor if you're rushed for time or a scrub.

I used to do the windsor, then the half windsor, then I realized the reason my ties looked bad (behind piece was always hilariously short) was because I need a size Tall tie

now i do the 4 in hand b/c it uses less fabric and wtf it's fashionable now so gently caress it
