- Kirby Allison, the founder of The Hanger Project, goes over the steps on how to tie a bow tie. A bow tie is a classic accessory that can immediately elevate any man’s style. A self-tie bow tie looks much better than a pre-tied bow tie because it shows that extra hint of effort. If you can tie your shoes, you can tie a bow tie; it’s that simple.
_________________________________________________________________
Step 1 (2:27): Place the bow tie band as close to the collar band as possible
Step 2 (3:18): Adjust one side to be 2 inches longer than the other
Step 3 (3:30): Loop into a single knot
Step 4 (3:38): Fold the short end in half (forming the front of the bow tie)
Step 5 (3:47): Pull the long end over the front and pinch the halves together
Step 4 (4:18): Fold the draping blade in half and pull through the back gap
Step 6 (4:35): Adjust as needed to get perfect

The Hanger Project The ending sold me.
I wear a tux every year for a ball (New Orleans, Mardi Gras) and afterwards we all hang out, eat and have drinks.
I'd love to untie my bow tie and look cool like that (while everyone else has on clip ons, haha).
You are wrong
I search bow tie tutorial video practice it makes perfect👌🎀🤵🏻
There are how-to-tie-a-bow-tie videos that have more views, but yours is the best I've seen because it is one of the few that shows the "tricky part" of how to fold the two wings together to expose and find the hole. When I show others that move, it transforms their ability to do it.
Kirby is like the Dad I never had. Teaching me to tie a bow-tie, to be well-groomed, to dress well, and overall, to be a Gentleman. Your children are blessed to have you.
There must be dozens...maybe hundreds...of videos on YT about how to tie a bowtie, but this is one of the best. You're easy to follow, and you don't jabber on about the history of the bowtie and other things we don't need. The ending is cool as well. Untying your tie at the end of an evening to let it drape down around your neck is one of the great pleasures of being a gentleman.
Hey Kirby, I just watched half a dozen bow tie videos back to back, yours is the best, thanks for posting! Even though it's long, it's the most informative and stress free! Thanks a bunch! Sincerely, Donnie C with the Wayne Newton band in Las Vegas.
Folding the tie in half before pushing the "long side" behind is a nice trick! Learn something every day! Thanks!
Took about 5 minutes of fiddling but I got a great damn bow tie technique down. Great video and I look forward to building up my bow tie collection.
By a long shot, the best video I've ever seen on this.
Thank you!
You are the man Kirby. Tried 100 instructional videos and all were confusing. Watched your video a few times and have finally got it. Amazing and thank you.
This is the best “tie your own bow tie” video!
Uploaded 5 years ago but still usefull. Tank you sir!
Great! From your instructions, I got it after my 4th try and on that 4th try I realized how you can tighten by pulling bows on either side, it's as if a light bulb went off in my head. Awesome video Kirby. Keep up the excellent work and I'll keep watching.
I have been Cruising for 10 years this year thank you to your video I have mastered it, I think its like you said keep calm don't panic, using the adjustment it help me so so much. Thank you Kirby Allison
Thank you!
awesome video!
Great Instructional Video! Kudos for the background music & the setting! From start to finish you made me feel like I a being properly prep to hang out with the Big Dogs in proper style and not leaving anything to chance. The note that Bow Tie are NOT supposed to be tied perfect was a real relief.....The cigar and liquor at the end screamed that I can dine with the Captains of Industry. Real Panache! Thanks
This is one of the best bow tie tutorials I have seen!!! Your suggestion to bend over and pull the bow tie closer to the top of the collar was much appreciated. I hadn't been doing that and my bow ties were often sitting too low and exposing the top of the collar. I'll incorporate that technique from now on. Thanks.
Thanks! That and sticking your finger behind the knot in the bow are both key tricks to make tying a bow tie a lot easier!!
I've watched a ton of video's with no avail still unable to tie a bow tie. THEN I can across your video an on the first try a successful bow tie. Thank you!
I always thought both bows were in front and tails in the back and being left handed it took a minute to get the bows opposite each other. Thank you for the pictures as well, good visual. After 3 tries, I am able to tie the bows evenly! Thank you!
Great tutorial, Kirby. I always wash my hands with soap and hot water and dry them thoroughly before handling any sort of neck tie. This prevents natural oils, sweat and dirt on your hands from soiling the fabric of the tie.
I'm from Trinidad & Tobago in the Caribbean W.I. & l will like to say Thank You Very Much, because my daughter will be married in November 2k20. & I have learned how to tie a Bowtie & this was quite a learning experience & informative 👍
Many Thnks to you! I succeeded ! Thanks you very much I am 49 and will wear a bow this week-end !
Ok, that took all of three minutes to teach this old guy how to tie a Bow Tie! Outstanding! Got it!
Excellent tutorial. Thanks!!!
Great video! Thank you for all your great tutorials!
Finally figured it out. Single blade goes to the left on the first bow. Thanks. love your videos. Don't smoke or drink but the rest is great.
Thank you, I have been watching so many videos and have been really frustrated because the other videos are very confusing so thank you or the help
Bow Tie, cigar and a shot of whiskey. You win over my heart mister Kirby with all that good stuff.
Thanks again! It's tricky to get the knot right, but I'll get there.
And yes, it looks cool having it pulled loose while casually finishing up your day after work. ;)
Thank you very much for teaching how to tie a Bow tie.
The best! Thank you for perfectly relaxed instructions on how to tie a bowtie!
Very easy to understand and follow his explanations.
You’re a life saver!
Thank you very much
Thank you for explaining the process of tying a bowtie. You have taken out the mystery.
OMG……. I wish my late husband had seen this video, I always insisted he had a proper bow tie, but it was very stressful trying to tie it, genius demonstration.
THANK YOU!!!!!
Well said!
Thank you!
Nice vid, thanks
thanks
Nice Waterford Crystal whisky glass.
Hi Kirby, another great video. Thank you! A bit belated, but what shirt collar/shirt style do you recommend with a tuxedo? It seems that you're wearing a spread color-type shirt and not a wing tip.
Great video! I'm tired of all these pre-tied bowties people wear. They don't realize how ridiculous they look and how easy it is to tie a bow tie.
I couldn't agree more. And tying your own bow tie is SO EASY. It's easier than tying a good neck tie! The secret is using your index finger to find the hole that you take the long end back through.
Kirby, your video wasn't just instructional, it was also entertaining.
Thank you!!
@@kirbyallison You’re very welcome.
Greetings from the UK. Unfortunately the video referred to appears to be no longer available. Maurice
I have 20 inch neck. It seams bow ties are to short. I'm still learning how to tie a bow tie. I think my problem is the bow tie aren't long enough. Help !!!
I am left-handed, is there any difference
💯
👍👍
I wish I could meet you in person so you can show me how to tie a bow tie & see if I did it right. I can't do it. =(
Tying a bow tie is just like tying your shoe laces if you can tie your
shoe laces you can tie
a bow tie 🤠
Bow ties come in different sizes. 5 cm. And 7.5 cm. What determines what size I get?
arigato !
Hi, I'm in a huge pinch, can someone help me? Are there always two sides to a bowtie? I bought an eton bowtie and it only has one side shaped like a bow. The other ends in a t hook. Was I sold half a bowtie?
I appreciate the walk-through. It is one of the better demos and explanations available on CZcams. Yet, it is super annoying and frustrating to keep saying how easy and simple it is. If it had been, you would not have had so much trouble seeking out a source so you could learn it. What makes the other videos so bad is how fast everyone goes through the important parts of the demo. People would not be seeking help if it was not easy for THEM!! It is really demeaning to keep hearing about how easy these are from the people who have been tying these for YEARS!! It took me 4-5 tries before I could even manage to come to anything close. In the future, please take into consideration where people are starting from.
Hey kirby! I Live in a warm country. In summers it is impossible to wear a tuxedo. So is it OK to wear a Bow-tie without a tuxedo on a plain white Shirt and black trouser?
Thanks for the video. However All men aren’t created equally and so are Bow ties. I would like to own a tie that fits my neck properly when tied ….Do they come in different measurements small medium and large or is it a one size fits all.
I have a long beard, and the hair keeps getting stuck in my bow tie and coming out on both sides. What should I do?!
“Easier than a regular tie”
Lmao
I would bet good money that video was by President Bill Durden of my alma mater, Dickinson College!
How to tie a crazy necktie
I don't process info very fast. I would have liked this video better if Mr Allison had tied th tie in a mirror so i could tie mine copying ur every move. Also if u could have do everything slower I wouldn't have 2 stop & start & replay so many times. As it is I have tied it successfully once, after many starts & stops. Once unsuccessfully. thanks,

This is easier that having to tie a tie. Lol.
But its harder to tie.
This was helpful (after watching 10x bc everyone all all of these instructional vids just say “now fold it in half” ::garbled hand movements:: That’s the part that makes no sense and sabotages the whole thing if you fold it the wrong way. I was only able to get it bc the pics were beside the vid. For future reference that’s the part to slow down on ...On another note this dude in the entire video is hands down the whitest thing I’ve ever seen on CZcams or prob every will. Lol The “liberal arts college in New England” part combined with “the club / cigar” killed me.
Damn man get going commontary get it done.
black on black is difficult to see the folds. i suggest you redo the video with a colored tie, it'll be much easier to see.
This is not easy. I am sweating
Doesn’t actually tell you how to tie a bow tie he just rabbits on about how its not suppose to look perfect
Check out our new version of this video we just released.
Terrible
Two minutes of talking head to too much. Moved on.
