What’s your go-to tie knot?

Looking to acquire the skill of tying decent knots to look presentable! What are your favorite easy knots when it comes to a more casual but presentable look?

Half windsor I think I go around twice up the back and then through the second loop Whatever that’s called

I think it can depend a little on collar and tie. Skinny knot with wide spread can look weird. But mostly 4 in hand is good enough.

Plain knot (four-in-hand) is the only tie knot I use. I'm avoiding the temptation to say something snobby here🤣

Simple/four. The rest are nonsense and only for when you are a groomsman and the groom insistseveryone has a Windsor or something

I finally need to learn how to do a Winsor, I like the symmetry of that one a lot (also it‘s the one my dad uses)

i share the opinion i love the triangular look. Actually going to learn a 4inhand and half windsor and the rest can come later if i care enough

4 in hand is super easy to learn, you‘ll probably have it figured out in like 20 minutes Excited to see what you‘ll do with it!

I will be spamming mid art clones when i’m taking breaks from jort fits

It's an aside, although you improve with practice, tie knots are like hair days... you have good ones and bad ones

Spread collar : half Windsor Point : 4 in hand All depends on how thicc your collar and tie are tho Only people making strict hard rules are ask Andy types and you don’t want to be that, I don’t think

half-windsor or four in hand i have a 4" tie that i'll use a full windsor on if the collar is big enough (j.press flap pocket usually)
