Here is an easy method to tie a tie using the Simple Knot (also called the Oriental Knot) which is the easiest and quickest way to tie a tie:
- Place the tie around your neck with the wide end on the right side and the skinny end on the left. The wide end should be lower than the skinny end.
- Cross the wide end underneath the skinny end towards the left.
- Bring the wide end back over the skinny end to the right.
- Fold the wide end up through the neck loop from underneath.
- Pass the wide end down through the loop you've just created at the front.
- Pull down on the wide end to tighten the knot and slide it up toward your neck to adjust.
This knot produces a small, elegant triangular knot that is versatile and easy to wear for various occasions.
Another simple popular knot is the Four-in-Hand Knot which is slightly asymmetrical but stylish and quick. It involves wrapping the wide end around the narrow end, pulling it through a loop around the neck, and tightening to form the knot. This is also beginner-friendly and suitable for most occasions.
These are the easiest and fastest ways to tie a tie with clear, simple steps. If desired, video tutorials are available online for guided visual help.
