Double FIH is best tie knot. Windsor / half too symmetrical / bulky. Double FIH gives a great dimple, is nice and asymmetrical, and doesn’t look skimpy like a regular FIH.

Also, if wearing a suit, having a matching kerchief in the breast pocket counts for bonus points and sartorial perfection.


This is in the Top Ten of the dumbest things I've read in here.

If your tie and pocket square match, it means your Grandmother is dressing you.

Anyone wearing a 4 in Hand is either a child or lazy.

A Windsor is asymmetrical but a decent size for most ties, shirts and builds.

A Double Windsor is symmetrical but can be massive depending on the tie material.

The GOAT knot for ties is the Pratt Knot. Symmetrical. Right size for most tie materials and shirt collars. Works with almost everything and is not complicated.
