Product Insights
Le 31's Shimmery Black Bow Tie is a 100% silk pre-tied bow tie with a hidden clasp, priced at CAD 49 — 27% less than Suitsupply and half of Paul Fredrick. It passes as hand-tied at formal events, meets black-tie and white-tie dress codes, and adjusts to fit necks 14–18 inches. The pre-tied design reduces daily wear, and an invisible metallic clasp keeps the bow centered through hours of use. It withstands 12kg lateral pressure, and its silk absorbs sweat to prevent a damp look. Care requires spot cleaning or steam (never submerge), and storage in a dark, cool place.
