history of the tie to get a background to it all and you never know when the history of the tie will pop up on a quiz.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-11075412\"><h3 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">All roads lead to Rome<\/h3><\/div>\n\n<p>The first time the tie appeared was probably in the early second century when Roman legionaries wore a kind of cloth around their necks, it was probably more for protection from the weather than for decoration.\nOn the Trajan column that stands a short distance from the Colusseum in Rome, there are depicted legionaries with a &#8220;slip&#8221;, according to the history books, the column was inaugurated in 113 AD.\nso if we count the piece of cloth as a tie, it has been with 1900 years  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-121123bf\"><h3 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">Lace gizzards from the 17th century<\/h3><\/div>\n\n<p>A little closer to home is the lace cravat worn by the nobility, which in turn probably grew out of the scarf worn by &#8220;ordinary&#8221; people.\nAt that time, lace was a symbol of wealth and usually not a bad one either as the most expensive handmade ties today pale in comparison with the ties of that time.\nThe tie worn by King Charles II in 1610 cost just over \u00a320, which may not seem like much, but when a good annual salary for an ordinary worker was a couple of pounds, it all looks different.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-c00c4f05\"><h3 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">American boxers<\/h3><\/div>\n\n<p>  In the 18th century, just over 100 years later, the &#8216;bandanna&#8217; appears, a variant of scarf reminiscent of today&#8217;s tie.\nIt was wrapped several times around the neck.\nAmerican boxer James Belcher is said to be the man who made it popular.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-91a9b331\"><h3 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">Englishmen with starched linen tablecloths<\/h3><\/div>\n\n<p>As usual, we jump forward another 100 years and land in 19th century England where George Bryan Brummell started a whole new fashion among gentlemen of the time.\nBrummel used starched linen tablecloths that he discreetly tied around his neck.\nIn those days, being a gentleman was not supposed to be so flashy and colorful.\nBrummel&#8217;s initiative laid the foundation for the tie as we know it today or whether it was an early precursor to the cravat, we at Gentlemen of Sweden leave it unsaid but it probably leans a little towards it.   <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-3e332903\"><h3 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">University of Oxford<\/h3><\/div>\n\n<p>The tie as we know it today was born in 1880 when the school tie appeared when Oxford&#8217;s Exeter College decided to wear hat bands tied around the neck.\nThe fashion was set in stone and in the same year they ordered ties as we know it today from the local tailor in the same colors and after that other schools quickly followed suit. <\/p>\n\n<p>We could of course delve further into the history of the tie, but the 5 points above are just enough and big enough to remember without cheating.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-e387ab0c\"><h2 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">A closer look at the tie itself<\/h2><\/div>\n\n<p>What makes a good tie and what should it look like?<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>If we start with the material, a good tie is usually made of silk, wool or linen.\nSilk gives the tie a luxurious sheen and is also durable, wool ties are perfect for a more structured and matte look and finally we also have linen ties which are great for summery and more casual styles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How the tie should look is something that goes hand-in-hand with what suits your style and the occasion.\nSolid colored ties are classic and always work so if you are only buying one or two ties go for solid colors!\nPatterned ties can highlight your personality but keep in mind that the color and pattern should complement the shirt and suit.\nIf you are unsure, aim for a solid color with perhaps a little structure.   <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"

knot must of course harmonize with the width of the collar and lapel of your jacket.\nA standard width of around 7-9 cm is versatile, while narrower ties (around 5-6 cm) give a more modern and streamlined look.\nThe knot should be in the right proportions, so be sure to choose a knot that is neither too big nor too small for your shirt and jacket.    <\/p>\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re aiming to make tie knots your new hobby, it&#8217;s worth remembering that thicker ties work better with simpler knots like Four-in-Hand while thinner ties can use more complex knots like Eldredge.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve read this far, I&#8217;m guessing that you&#8217;re interested in ties and that you&#8217;d like our giveaway this October.\nEnter our giveaway to be in the draw
