How to Tie a Tie (Without Losing Your Cool) His Place | Men's Style Made Simple

Whether you're suiting up for a big meeting, a wedding, or just want to sharpen your everyday look, knowing how to tie a proper tie is a timeless skill every man should have in his back pocket.

 

At His Place, we believe confidence starts with the details—and that includes a well-tied tie. Here's a quick breakdown of the most versatile knot: the Four-in-Hand. It's classic, slightly asymmetrical, and works with just about any collar or occasion.

 

How to Tie a Four-in-Hand Knot:

 Start with the wide end of the tie on your right side, hanging about 12 inches lower than the narrow end.

 

  1. Cross the wide end over the narrow end.
  2. Bring the wide end under the narrow end and back over again.
  3. Pull the wide end up through the loop around your neck.
  4. Tuck it down through the knot in front.
  5. Tighten, center, and smile. You nailed it.

 

That’s it—five easy steps, one sharp result.
