How To Tie A Bow Tie

Big Time Timmy Jim rocking the bow tie

I've been seeing the bow tie around a lot more lately and I couldn't be happier to see it's return. With stars like Tim Lincecum and Dwayne Wade now sporting the classic neck accessory (see what I did there?), it's only a matter of time before the everyday guy decides he'd like to wear one as well. Bow ties are fun, distinctive, and distinguished all at the same time. A guy who wears a bow tie is most certainly confident in his style. But if you decide to wear one, please DO NOT wear a clip on. Clip ons are too perfect and can be spotted a mile away. Take the time to actually learn how to tie one. It's actually a lot simpler than you think. I've included a little instructional video below brought to you by Details.com to get you started. It might help to practice on your leg so you can see better.
