  • How to a tie a tie in the half Windsor knot with our super easy (and mirrored) tutorial.
    This video is filmed in a mirror to make it super easy to copy. Just tilt your phone and place it next to a mirror, and then copy the clear instructions. You should be able to tie-a-tie in no time!
    The half Windsor tie knot is a versatile and practical tie knot for all occasions. Smaller than the bulkier full Windsor knot and slightly more full than the popular four-in-hand knot.

    Somerset. I've been tying a full Windsor since I was 11 (I'm 72 now!) and kept running out of tie length, I had never heard of a half Windsor until I saw your video, now I can use almost any tie length, thank you very much, I have a wedding to go to next month and can't wait to show this off!

This is my second year at a boarding school which is very strict about looking smart with our dress code. Menswear like our Blazers, dress pants, white dress shirt, ties, polished black leather shoes and even haircuts. I have finally learnt how to do a tie with you. People in New Zealand are quick learners! Thank you very much.
