Many men ask what tie goes with what and they often lost what when it comes to choosing a tie. Therefore , I have decided to discuss seven essential ties every man must have. Over the years, I built up a tie collection of over 200, but I find that some are worn more often than others. There’s a dozen ties I come back over and over again, and those are the ones I choose to travel with because they allow me to wear very casual outfits, semi-formal outfits and I’m covered with the entire range of ties I need.
Below Are 5 Good Ties For men:
Burgundy Ties
Personally, I like the burgundy knit tie because it has a lot of texture and so it goes well with a tweed jacket or a sports coat. It also works with a formal charcoal suit or navy blue suit. It’s also airier and it’s great choice for summer. Alternatively, you can go with a burgundy grenadine tie, it’s similar in texture, it’s versatile, and you’ll wear it a lot of times. You could also go with a herringbone pattern which just adds a little more texture and contrast to an otherwise solid tie.
Brown Ties
Ideally, you want it once again, in a different texture than the other two ties you already have. Since brown is a more casual colour, you want to go with a textured tie. So again, a knit tie in tobacco brown is nice and so is a brown grenadine.
Navy Silk Ties
It’s muted, it’s dark, but if you can wear that well, you can go from there and it’s good for formal outfits, it’s good for interviews, and it doesn’t catch much attention. If you wear lots of solid suits, I suggest you go with a navy grenadine tie because it has a stronger texture, but it’s not overly strong like a knit tie, so you can wear it with formal outfits but it helps your tie to stand out even though the colours are not popping and strong.
Striped Repp Tie
It’s a classic in men’s wardrobe, and it’s a typical preppy style staple from the US. They come in hundreds of patterns, they are often club ties or regimental ties, and they’ve been popular for many decades. This is a tie that never really goes out of style and so it makes perfect sense to invest in one. Most men I know have a few of those ties and oftentimes they start with red or blue, I think bottle green is a great colour for a repp tie because it’s different than navy or red which you probably already have in your wardrobe especially if you follow this guide. IT is casual but can be worn with formal outfits and it just rounds out your tie collection. Don’t feel like you have to default to a blue or red repp tie, simply get what you like and try to have a variety of colours.
Shantung Ties
You can get a different one, you can get them in solid colours or different stripes but the specialty about shantung is that it’s a raw silk that means it has little knobs in it, it’s woven and it gives it a more casual character.
