The Tie – The Evergreen for the Man<\/h2>\n

The tie\u00a0 was “invented” by the Croats about 400 years ago.<\/p>\n

This is an excerpt from the\u00a0Herren-Rundschau 03\/04.2019<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The history of the tie<\/h2>\n

During the Thirty Years’ War, 6,000 Croats moved to Paris as mercenaries of France. One part of their uniform was a cloth knotted around their neck from silk or cotton, called “hravatska”, whose ends hung down to their breasts. The French court liked this fashion \u00e0 la croate so much that the simple scarf soon began its triumphal march through Europe as a “cravate”. The tie has continued to develop to this day and also withstands competition from the bow tie. It is still one of the most popular Christmas presents for the man and a constant companion of the suit. The long knotted ribbons are worn both as accessories and as a statement. Decisive for a noble tie is the choice of fabric, the design and the workmanship.<\/p>\n

A special feature of a high-quality tie is sometimes the inlay. A wool inlay is elastic and allows the tie to return to its original shape after the final knot. Polyester inlays, on the other hand, cause unattractive wrinkles. Ties are made of silk, polyester, wool and cotton. In addition to the classic woven variants, there are also more daring alternatives such as the knitted tie. Well-known brands such as Hugo Boss or Ascot offer straight ties in a wide range of colours. Apropros colours, what are the most popular colours and which will prevail in 2019? It is clear that black, grey and blue are the classics. But also Bordeaux red, violet or green are often seen colours, whether monochrome or with patterns such as stripes, dots or paisley. “Living Coral” was voted Pantone Color of the Year 2019. Will we see more coral ties this year? Let’s be surprised.<\/p>\n

The width of the tie offers plenty of scope. The classic width is about 8 cm, but the Slim-Fit ties are becoming more modern and can be up to 4 cm narrow. The unbound tie length for a body height up to 1.95 m is 140 – 150 cm, but there are XXL ties for men over 1.95 m, these are 160 – 170 cm long.<\/p>\n

Storage and cleaning of the tie<\/h2>\n

For a long lifetime of the tie only a few hints and rules need to be considered: It should be loosely rolled up from the narrow end and stored in a cupboard, box or drawer. For sufficient air circulation, do not place the ties too close together. Furthermore, ties do not belong in the washing machine! Light stains or dirt can be removed with a suitable stain remover. In the case of stubborn stains, it is worth going to the washing machine. Always iron on the inner side and, in the case of silk ties, place an ironing cloth in between. With light pressure and without superheated steam the tie gets smooth.<\/p>\n
