So for the longest time I didn't see any purpose for spending decent money on ties. I figured they are just pieces of fabric and it didn't matter, so all my ties are really cheap and crappy.
I really struggle to tie a nice knot in my ties. I got with the half windsor, and I know the mechanics of it just fine, but when I go to tighten her up the knot is all crappy and I never seem to get a dimple. Usually the knot is more of a horizontal rectangle than a triangle if ya know what I mean. Every time I try to throw a tie on in the morning it takes numerous tie attempts and sometimes I am just in a rush and say forget it.
For those of you who own quality ties, do you think part of my problem could be that the ties are crappy, or is it just me? Any advice on how to tie a good one? I feel like all the videos on youtube and stuff just show the mechanics and the steps, instead of tips on how to make it really crisp and good looking
