Knitted ties and knitted bow ties have been sold at Easy Way Fashion for more than 15 years, and we are constantly working to raise the caliber and variety of our selection. Although the majority of the customers we deal with in our Bricklane location in London are frequently perplexed to see this strange object that appears to be missing its bottom and frequently enquire about whether this is a new invention that we have developed, they are consistently shocked to learn that knitted ties have been around since the 1940s. We always have a handful of these vintage ties from the 1940s on display to demonstrate to customers how this knitted necktie has changed over the course of more than 75 years.
Most men frequently wore knit ties well over the belt buckle area in 1940s fashion [see below], which is now generally frowned upon. Knitted ties in this era tend to be made of Rayon or silk, are often much wider, more simple, and cost between 0.94c and $1.30 each. We should be aware that these prices are in ancient money and were reasonable at the time.
From that time until the 2000s, when we can observe how men's fashion has valued this distinctive neckwear to be included in their dress code, this kind of knit ties has come a long way.
We frequently observe a wide variety of men and women wearing knit ties with elegantly structured striped or polka dot patterns.
Although the majority of people believe that knitted ties made of silk are superior, this is not always the case. We frequently conduct extensive study on knitted ties made of various fabrics. We have investigated and examined the knitting and quality of several ties from various companies. This applies to both smaller and larger brands, and it constantly surprises us how frequently silk ties are constructed very poorly.
Apart from the fact that some of our clients can only wear polyester ties due to religious restrictions, we believe in developing knitted ties with all fabrics in mind, including polyester, silk, rayon, wool, and occasionally a blend of these fabrics. Polyester knitted ties have the advantage of being machine washable, whereas other knit ties require dry cleaning.
Given what we now understand and how well-liked knitted ties are, there are four crucial factors to take into account when purchasing a knit tie.
This is touched on below, but it's important to think about all the sources. We provide knitted ties in silk, linen, wool, and polyester on our website. Poly ties frequently have a bad rap for the wrong reasons. Years of experience have shown us that they maintain their quality quite well and are simple to machine wash. saving cash. However, due to their fineness, silk knitted ties typically tie better. All materials can be produced or knitted incorrectly, which is the difficulty with knitted ties.
The knot styles are frequently constrained due to their length and thickness. Unfortunately, most customers will not be able to experiment with tying their knit ties in the over 177,000 conceivable ways as you would with a traditional necktie because we frequently propose a simple knot.
Knitted ties are quite adaptable and may be worn to all kinds of gatherings, however we do advise a more formal approach for dinners and significant occasions. Customers in marketing are frequently more adventurous with knit ties, whilst our accounting buddies are typically more traditional.
The length is crucial for two reasons. First off, taller customers [above 6'2"] are limited when experimenting with a knitted tie because the pattern on most knitted ties ends in the middle of the tie. Second, we advise consumers to keep this in mind when purchasing a knitted tie because the length can occasionally be less than that of regular neckties and niceties.
Shirt We advise that the neck portion of the knitted tie that sits under the collar be completely covered because some collars are frequently smaller. The issue here is that some knitted ties are too thick around the neck area, making it difficult for the knitted tie to sit properly under the collar and be completely covered.
