Mens Self Bow Tie Polka Dots Woven Silk Bow Ties

No issues. Functional, well-made, good look, as easy to tie as other bow ties.

My friend is a novice when it comes to bow ties. He only owns one: a polyester blend, pre-tied, and pre-packaged with suspenders, by a well-known American designer. He initially bought it for a 1920s party and has worn it on several other occassions in response to all the compliments. Easter was rapidly approaching and he had puchased a fabulous pink and white striped oxford. It didn't take much persuasion to convince him to combine it with a bow tie. I thought he could step-up and purchase a silk tie. I selected this one based on another reviewer (by a frequent Pensee bow tie purchaser who had placed a link to this tie on another review). I did not realize it was a "real" bow tie and that my friend would need to learn how to tie it himself. Though there was a learning curve, as there always is with something completely new, it was quite worth it! (Incidentally, he recommends a youtube video by Pursuityourself for newbies like himself.) After this experience, we could easily recognize pre-tied bows easily -- even across the room. The pattern is brocade, meaning it's actually woven in, rather than printed on. This gives it a heft and style a notch above the rest. It reads very high-end and truly elevates the chic factor. The colors are bright, but the deep background maintains balance and moves it from being "trendy" to classic. He has worn it once, so I cannot comment on durability. There was a little fuzz around the ege of the fabric, but could only be seen if you are about two inches away from the man's neck. I'm very pleased with this purchase and he was very pleased with all the comments he received: "dapper," "sophisticated," and "charming" were just a few. Tip for Single fellows: ladies love bow ties. Perhpas we aren't even able to tell you why, but the fact is, most ladies find bow ties irresistable, especially this one. Maybe it's the pattern, maybe it's the color. Just wanted to let you know!

My husband needed a tie for an upcoming event. The tie arrived quickly and was a wonderful accessory for his suit. It looked exactly as described, it was easy to assemble and it's now a permanent part of his bow tie collection.

I purchased this tie for part of a 20's costume. As such, I didn't want to spend a mint. The tie has a nice look and texture to the material. It is easily adjustable through the standard hook and hole method however the proper sizes are not printed next to the holes. I had to match it up with another bow tie of mine and after 3-4 times of trial and error, I got it to be the proper length. The tie ties nicely but I did find it difficult to get nice dimples for the sides. Normally, a tie with a bit more thickness to the material will naturally pucker or cave in the middle next to the knot. I found this to actually have more of a "fold" where the bottom part folded over the top slightly. I probably could have tried to retie multiple times to get it just right but was happy with what I had. In all, I am happy with the product received based on the price. It is nice enough quality that I will wear it again and not just for a costume. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles but that is reflected in the budget price. I would also purchase from the same company again.

Great tie

It was a hit - the person I got it for loved it

These particular new Pensee Self bow ties are some the best priced($4.99) self bow ties you will find on the market for the great price. Very good quality ties. I'm recommending these to all my friends who like this style of self bow ties. If you don't know how to tie the self bow tie these are great for learning that technique for life. I'm an expert teacher for this; as I can tie them with out looking in a mirror, and I can tie them on others looking at them face to face. I was taught this skill by my grand father, & pass on my learning to anyone who whats to learn it too. Pensee has other ties too at different prices not sure why the cost has a difference? They all came individually in their own see through package and were shipped together in one, in the group of the four that I ordered. I did a pay the extra for expedited shipping as i need them here before the 25th of December for all my holiday events Just placed another order too for more at the great priced $4.99 ties as don't know when the cost will go up. Went with the standard shipping . Look forward to see more fashion options for the great price on occasion will splurge if the tie looks fun.

These ties were advertised as going to a 22" neck size. I have an 18.5" collar and these ties are "just" long enough if I don't hook the adjuster into the ties and let the fact that it will not pass through the loop on the other half hold the tie in place. Love the colors and fabric. Just wish they had been truthful as to the length. But then again these are made in China and shipped from there. Wish I could find ties made in America that are the right size and reasonably priced.

Cercavo proprio un papillon da legare da solo, non già pre-legato. Bellissimo, sia come tessuto, come modello che come disegno. Ottimo il colore. Dovrò imparare a legarlo, ma era quello che cercavo. Servizio consegna ottimo come sempre! Pervenuto in un giorno con prime.

Love this tie, I've been practising tying it in the mirror, but haven't been out with it on yet

Nice tie!! Arrived in great shape and before expected. Thanks

Excelente marca. He comprado varias pajaritas ya, y me encantan la calidad que tienen y su buen precio. Los envíos son muy rápidos. Muy recomendables. Yo seguiré comprando sus artículos.

il m' a été impossible de faire un noeud papillon avec l'objet fourni . j'ai été voir des videos sur youtube mais aucune n'est satisfaisante et je n'ai pas pu nouer le noeud . la qualité du produit est excellente par contre . n'achetez pas ce genre de noeud si vous ne savez pas les nouer .
