  • Learn how to tie the Nicky knot in this step-by-step video tutorial by Sven Raphael Schneider.
    The Nicky is a great full and asymmetrical tie knot for wider collars.
    gentl.mn/master...
    Simply put, the Nicky knot is a Four in hand or a Victoria knot on steroids. It’s simply bigger but slightly asymmetrical unlike the Windsor or Half Windsor knot.
    The name is derived from Nicky, a middle eastern tie maker. Invented by their salesman Ernesto Curami who came up with this knot. This became particularly known in Italy but never really made its mark outside the country. The nicky knot's size will depend on the thickness or thinness of your tie.
    Here is how you tie it:
    1. Start with the seam side up on both ends. The shorter end, the slimmer end should be on your right hand and the wider end on your left.
    2. The Slim end should be about a hand and a half above the waistband.
    3. The slimmer end goes on top of the wide end. Bring up the wide end, pull it up, pull down and then pull it to the other side. Then, bring the wide end back over and back up.
    4. Pull it up tight and bring the front shell of the tie back through the knot and hold it in place then, pull through. Make sure it unfolds if it falls over.
    5. Now, pull, pinch it a little if you wish to have a dimple.
    6. Once you're satisfied, pull the slim end up and wiggle.
    7. Adjust the knot until you are happy with the look.
    This knot also works with a thin tie, a medium thick tie and a thick tie like this yellow jacquard silk from Fort Belvedere. In terms of collars, the Nicky knot is best with a medium spread to a slightly cutaway collar. It will not look great with a wide spread collar because the tie ends will be exposed on both sides. Also with a classic collar because it is much narrower and may overlap with the knot.
    Ideally, choose a medium spread to slightly spread shirt collar regardless of the thickness or thinness of your tie. Obviously it’s a big knot so avoid wearing it with tab collars, collar pins or bars.

    I love the videos but hate so so much that type of collar

    This is my go-to knot. I never really warmed up to the four-in-hand. I have yet to try the Windsor knots.

    Could you possibly do a video on how to match a tie with your outfit?

    How wide is your collar??? I think it's too wide, so it looks like a straight line!

    Ah. More "Classic" GG. Yeah! I'll try this knot next Monday!

    Is this tie good for someone who wants to look like they were in GoodFellas?

    Great video. Please traduce this for your channel in Spanish. I love your work.

    Could you do a video on suit pants? At work when I'm examining a patient, it has a surprisingly large physical demand, where I more often than not, leave my jackets in my wardrobe when I leave for work, as I am doing this all day. I need to stay sharp so I usually wear suit pants and a nice tailored dress shirt but I feel like I'm just not doing it right, and I'm not sure what to look for for fit, comfort and performance. Thanks!

    Maybe I haven't looked hard enough but I can't find the recommended knot for a shirt with a button down collar. I'm a big guy with a 19" neck and buy long ties that still come up short using a Full Windsor knot.

    Which knot should I use at my school?

    am a bit tall man, how could I make a big knot and keeping the tip of the tie touching the belt?

      I’m in the same boat. I’ve found the Pratt knot to leave more length than the half Windsor and Windsor. Try the Pratt. If you still need more length try a longer tie or a smaller knot such as 4 in hand

  • @xM3NTALITYx
    @xM3NTALITYx 7 років тому +2

    literally like a pratt except it's make asymmetrical with the last couple steps

    • @duracotton
      @duracotton 7 років тому

      nah, it's still considerd as symmetrical..the only difference to the pratt is that it's self-releasing due to pulling it over the other side after the first step.

    I always have the narrow part of the tie on my left side and the wider part on my right, is this wrong?

    • @gentlemansgazette
      @gentlemansgazette  8 років тому

      +Christopher Smith (Trenchcoat) It depends on the knot...

  • @1964TP

    how do you keep the bottoms of your knots so pointed. My knots always seem so squarish and not triangles

  • @kierandolan2010
    @kierandolan2010 9 років тому +1

    I learnt that knot to be called an "Old Bertie" as stated by Marc Guyot and Hugo Jacomet... Why can't tie knots have one name for each, same with shirt collars.

    • @gentlemansgazette
      @gentlemansgazette  9 років тому +1

      There is no worldwide binding law that defines the name of tie knots.
      We use the oldest names we can find.

    Seems like it would be choking my Adam's apple the way you have it so high and up

  • @moodyguymick
    @moodyguymick 6 років тому +1

    I'm no expert but I don't think this knot looks good with a wide spread collar, as in your demonstration.

    • @wasekhasan1094
      @wasekhasan1094 5 років тому

      It's for a medium spread collar. Not as spread as the one in the video
