The history of the tie
The tie, also known as the necktie, has a surprisingly long history. The first ties were worn by senators in ancient Rome to keep their vocal cords warm during political speeches. These early examples were a combination of a handkerchief and a neck scarf. Today, the tie is traditionally worn by men over a shirt. This modern form has existed since 1924.
A tie is a style accessory for both business and casual outfits. The ties are made of high-quality silk and give you an elegant and representative look. In our extensive collection, you will find ties with stripes, dots, an abstract print, or a solid color.
Which color tie to choose?
Want to know which color tie you should choose? We recommend matching the color and print of your tie to the color of your shirt, suit, trousers or blazer. Also, consider the occasion. Are you going to a wedding? Then preferably choose a chic example in light blue or opt for a beautiful floral pattern. For a more formal look, a black or royal blue tie is a good choice. These subtle colors give your business outfit a fresh accent. Do you find a black, gray, or blue tie too modest? Then choose a tie with subtle stripes or checks.
Choose the right tie for more self-expression
When choosing the right tie, it is also important to take your personality into account. At GENTS, we see the tie as a way to express yourself. In a world where men often wear a suit daily, the tie offers a unique opportunity to vary in style. Additionally, with a stylish tie, you add a touch of personality to your outfit.
You can wear a tie in many different ways. When tying the tie, it is important not to overthink it. Preferably choose a looser knot for a modern and trendy look. Do you have a long upper body? In that case, buy a slightly longer tie so it falls nicely on the shirt. For a complete, business look, combine your tie with a matching shirt with braces and cufflinks.
With proper care, a tie can last for years. A good tip to increase the lifespan and quality of your tie is to hang it on a clothes hanger after use. This prevents creases in the fabric. Another option is to loosely roll the tie and place it in a sturdy shoe.
Complete your outfit with our ties
A tie is more than just an accessory; it can be an expression of someone's beliefs, social position, or role. Certain patterns and color combinations can convey a message or indicate that the wearer belongs to a specific society or group. In England, color combinations and stripes are often reserved for specific societies, such as the navy or the royal pioneers corps.
At GENTS, you will find a wide range of ties, from beautiful silk ties to modern polyester variants, in all colors of the rainbow. This way, you can transform any outfit and express your style with the perfect tie.

When choosing a new tie, it is important that it feels comfortable and looks neat. Some things to pay attention to when finding a tie are:
Three separate parts: Make sure the tie consists of three separate parts sewn together with the same sewing machine, except for the inner seam, which is done by hand. This gives the tie the label ‘handmade' or 'hand finished'.
Technical features: Check the finish and quality of the fabric of a tie. If the fabric has little stretch, you cannot make a nice knot. This indicates that the fabric quality is not good.
