  It’s the best method to create a solid knot with a tie which is not long enough to be tied with the Scappino or traditional Windsor.

  Rendered famous by the King of England, Edward VIII, this cone-structured knot in became popular inItaly thanks to theTurin tie maker, Scappino. The owners actually printed an instruction manual to the aid their clients.

  It derives its name from the Swedish tie maker Amanda Christensen who in one of her ads, illustrated this knot of particular crossed movement.

  Called that because its use is dated back to the times ofEngland’sPrince Albert. Also called a Simple Double – it’s used to give a certain consistency to the knot when the tie is a bit narrow.

    The Choctaw beaded collar features designs from the Pan-Indian tradition. Produced around 1940 it was worn with men’s shirts as a tie.
