Step-by-Step Tutorial: How to Tie a Four-in-Hand Knot

  1. Prepare Your Attire

    • Button up the top button of your shirt.
    • Ensure the seams of the tie are against your chest.
  2. Adjust Tie Length

    • The thin end of the tie should be shorter than the thick end.
    • Leave about a foot to a foot and a half extra of the thick end, depending on your neck size and body length.
  3. Start Tying the Knot

    • Cross the thick end of the tie over the thin end.
    • Use your index finger and thumb to hold the ends together.
  4. Create the Knot

    • Bring the thick end around the back and across the front.
    • Pass it through the loop from behind and tuck it through the front loop.
  5. Tighten the Knot

    • Pull the thick end while holding the thin end to tighten the knot.
    • Squeeze the bottom of the knot and hold the thin end as you adjust the knot for a neat look.
  6. Adjust the Knot

    • Give the blade of the tie a tug to adjust the knot's appearance.
    • Repeat the tugging process as needed to create a well-formed knot.
  7. Finalize the Knot

    • Tuck the thin end into the back of the tie.
    • Secure it through the keeper loop at the back of your tie or tuck it through the label.
  8. Complete the Look
