How to tie a tie

Learn How to Tie a Tie

I have designed this site as a guide for both newbies just starting out with their first tie knot, as well as those more advanced students that would like to add some variety to their tie knots.

All I ask of you is an open mind and a few minutes of your time to practice today. The choice is yours:

Four in Hand Knot VideoFour in Hand Knot

Asymmetrical tie knot, good for button-down shirts
Pratt Knot  VideoPratt Knot

Tidy & fairly wide tie knot, suited for any dress shirt

Half Windsor Knot VideoHalf Windsor Knot

Symmetrical tie knot, goes with any dress shirt
Windsor Knot  VideoWindsor Knot

Wide & triangular tie knot, good for spread collar shirts

Step-by-step video instructions are available for all four necktie knots. That way, I hope you will learn how to tie a tie in short time. It would now be helpful if you had a tie at hand and a mirror nearby so that we can "dig right on in".
