We’re efficient at what we do and sell a lot of ties. Because we sell so many, we can keep our prices low while still offering great quality.

You can find the material of each tie listed under the product features on every product page. We offer ties in polyester, polyester microfiber, cotton, silk, and silk blends—but what’s the difference?

Polyester is a durable synthetic material and a budget-friendly alternative to silk. While polyester once had a reputation for being stiff or shiny, modern polyester has come a long way. In fact, many top designer brands now use polyester, and it’s often hard to tell the difference between silk and polyester just by looking. For customers ordering in bulk for groups or staff, polyester ties are a popular choice due to their durability and affordability.

Polyester microfiber is still polyester, but the fibers are much finer—thinner even than silk strands. This creates a soft yet strong fabric with a smooth texture. Some brands market these ties simply as “microfiber,” but make no mistake—they’re still polyester!

Silk is a natural fiber produced by silkworms. Compared to polyester, silk ties have a tighter weave and a softer feel. However, silk requires extra care, as it must be dry cleaned and typically cannot be spot cleaned like polyester.

We offer a wide range of matching items, including solid, striped, and patterned ties, bow ties, scarves, boys' ties, and more. To ensure a perfect match, we recommend purchasing all the ties you need at once. While we strive for color consistency, dye lots can vary slightly between batches, meaning a reorder next month may not be an exact match to what we ship today. Additionally, items with the same color name may have slight variations due to different manufacturers or dye processes. If you have any questions about matching colors or items, give us a call at 847-566-5980.

A properly sized necktie should extend from the top of the shirt collar to about the belt area. Below is a general guide to help you choose the right size based on age and fit.

• Most men and teens wear our standard 57-inch neckties or a 20-inch pre-tied clip-on or zipper tie.
• Big and/or taller men (over 6 feet) or those needing extra length should opt for a 61-inch or longer necktie or a 22-inch or longer clip-on/zipper tie.
• Our men's bow ties are designed to fit most men, women, and teens ages 10 and up.

• Women and younger teens can typically wear a standard-length tie but may prefer a narrower width (3 inches or less).
• Clip-on and zipper ties under 20 inches—ideally 17- or 18-inch options—tend to be a better fit.
• A standard men's bow tie should comfortably fit most women and pre-teens.

We offer boys’ ties starting at infant sizes up to about age 13 depending on the tie style.

• Our boys' bow ties come in one size, designed to fit babies, toddlers, and kids up to around age 10.
• Help him learn to tie his own tie with our regular boys' neckties! This self-tie style is perfect for older boys ages 8 to 13.
• We see the most exchanges in children's pre-tied clip-on and zipper ties due to sizing errors. To ensure the best fit, measure from the top of the collar to the waist before purchasing and refer to our size recommendations. (An 8-inch pre-tied tie typically fits babies and toddlers up to 2 years old, an 11-inch pre-tied tie fits ages 2 to 5, and a 14-inch pre-tied tie is ideal for most kids aged 6 to 10.)

The colors you see on your computer or mobile device are meant to be a guide. Keep in mind that colors can vary between screens, so what you see may not match the actual fabric. We work hard to ensure our product photos accurately represent the colors, but we can’t guarantee they’ll be exactly the same as in person. Seeing the fabric in person is the best way to ensure you're happy with the color.

Also, keep in mind that different stores may use their own names for colors, so even if another store uses the same name, the shades might not match.

Free Color Swatches: If you're in the USA, you can request free color swatches to help you choose the right shade before making a purchase. For more details, check out our color swatch page.

If the color you choose isn’t quite right, or if you need your ties quickly and end up ordering multiple colors, our 60-day return/exchange policy makes it easy to make things right.

Each tie is packaged individually in a poly sleeve. Orders are shipped in recyclable bags or sturdy cardboard boxes.

If you’d like a box for your ties, we also offer necktie gift boxes for purchase.

We recommend checking the product care tag for the most accurate cleaning instructions for your tie. For most ties, dry cleaning is the safest option.

However, we’ve successfully hand-washed a white tie from our signature solid tie collection (we even ground dirt into it and let it sit for a day). Using the steps below, the tie came out looking almost as good as new.

Please note that these instructions are for our solid, 100% polyester neckties only. For all other items, please refer to the care tag.

• Spray any stains with a pre-treatment stain remover (if needed).
• Hand wash in cold water.
• Dry on low heat for 30 minutes.

Your results may vary depending on the stain and how long it’s been set in.

We do our best to ship ties in a way that minimizes wrinkles. However, if your ties arrive wrinkled or develop wrinkles with use, follow these ironing tips:

• Polyester or Polyester Microfiber: Use the synthetic or next highest heat setting. For heavy creases, slowly move the iron over the crease, and it should come out soon.
• Silk: Light creases often disappear by simply hanging the tie overnight. For deeper creases, use the silk setting on your iron.

To keep your ties looking their best, always untie them after wearing and store them flat or hung up properly. This helps prevent wrinkles and extends their lifespan.

All of our ties are imported from our overseas manufacturers. A selection of our themed and custom ties are designed and printed via dye sublimation right here in our Mundelein, Illinois warehouse, using pre-manufactured ties.
