| Diagonal Stripe 100% Silk Bow Tie: Choose this if you want a pre-tied bow tie that's easy to wear, with adjustability via a metallic clasp and a one-size fit in Black or Brown. It's made in Italy from 100% silk with a diagonal ribbed stripe texture and satin sheen, designed in Canada as a Le 31 exclusive. Note that the pre-tied construction means it comes already tied rather than self-tied, so it suits shoppers who prefer convenience over tying it themselves.[1,2] | Textured Bow Tie: Choose this if you want a black (also offered in Brown, Mossy Green, Navy/Midnight Blue, and Burgundy) textured bow tie with an irregular woven knit, matte low-sheen finish and an adjustable metallic clasp, in a one-size fit from Le 31, an exclusive Simons brand designed in Canada. The listed composition is 50% silk and 50% wool, though the listing separately describes a silk, wool and polyester blend, so check the fabric details if exact fiber content matters to you. Note that the styling is described as both pre-tied and self-tie, and the listing does not clarify that relationship.[3,4,5] | Classic Bow Tie: Choose this if you want a pre-tied, one-size bow tie for festive or special-occasion wear: reviewers praise its true-to-color, polished look, sturdy build, and reliable adjustment that stays comfortable across a range of neck sizes, and it comes in six colors from Black to Ochre Yellow. Its satiny 100% microfibre fabric has a smooth, low-reflective sheen, though some note the microfiber can feel scratchy rather than silky, which may disappoint those expecting the touch of traditional silk.[6,7] |
