Tie Clip – Manage your neck tie effectively

Every man loves to wear a neck tie for any kind of formal or informal occasion. As such managing a neck tie becomes a tiring job when you are out for a business meeting or even creates embarrassing moments for you many times when it hangs out and spoils while you are out for lunch or dinner.

A tie clip is a small piece of men’s accessory that is used to keep a neck tie attaches to the underlying dress shirt. Tie clips are usually spring loaded at one end so that it slides horizontally across the tie for security. The front of a tie clip can be either plain or decorated with small precious or semi precious stones. Some tie clips even are custom designed such that they feature a company’s logo or any representation of other objects that interests the wearer.

You should not confuse tie clips with tie pins or tie clasps. Tie pins have a pin and backing design that resembles an earring along with a chain and stem that are placed through the button hole of a dress shirt for anchoring. Tie pins should penetrate the fabric of the tie in order to keep it securely fastened. But prolonged penetration could lead to damage the expensive material if used in ties. Tie clips slide through shirt and tie without penetration and a spring clip is usually light so that it prevents damaging the fabric.

Tie clips also serve very important function along with being decorative. Men’s ties are intended to cover the button of the dress shirt and also provide a line of contrast and interest. Many fashion experts often suggest that a properly selected tie conveys the personality of the wearer. Unfortunately, even the most expensive silk tie cannot compete with wind and gravity and can easily blow out of place with a quick gust of air and unsecured tie can also find its way into a paper shredder or other machine. A tie clip places approx two thirds of the way down the front of a neck tie and keep it secured through most situations.

Decorative tie clips have even become more popular as gift ideas for shoppers on a budget. There is a wide variety of styles available and one size may not fit all ties. Therefore, if you own many neck ties then you need to invest in functional tie clips for everyday occasions and higher end clips for formal events. Many times, tie clips are even bundled with matching cufflinks.
