New york tie

The classic New York tie!

The New York tie, also known as the "New York cut" or "New York style," is a type of necktie that originated in the 1920s and 1930s in New York City. It's characterized by a distinctive cut and style that's still popular today.

Here are some key features of a traditional New York tie:

  1. Wide blade: The blade of a New York tie is typically wider than other types of ties, measuring around 3.5 to 4 inches (8.9 to 10.2 cm) in width.
  2. Shorter length: New York ties are generally shorter than other ties, measuring around 52 to 54 inches (132 to 137 cm) in length.
  3. Pointed tip: The tip of a New York tie is pointed, rather than rounded or cut off at an angle.
  4. Simple pattern: New York ties often feature simple, classic patterns such as stripes, dots, or subtle geometric designs.
  5. High-quality materials: Traditional New York ties are made from high-quality materials, such as silk or wool, and are often hand-tied or made using traditional techniques.

The New York tie is often associated with the classic American businessman or banker, and is still a popular choice for formal occasions such as weddings, job interviews, and business meetings.
