We don't want you to change your style, but we invite you to discover 30 different tie knots so that you can open the range of your possibilities. From classic knots to more alternative ones, you will see that there are knots for all tastes according to aesthetics, symmetry, size and difficulty. Delight yourself with these options.

1. Eldredge knot

Elegant and original. It is a tie that resembles a rose, as it is interspersed with the thin part of the tie to get a knot that is not smooth.

2. Trinity Knot

To achieve this knot is to get a triangular and three times symmetrical design. The pattern converges at a central point, which is achieved through very simple movements.

3. Van Wijk Knot

You can do it in 15 seconds and it consists of wrapping the tie around itself. It looks best on light colours and narrow collared shirts.

4. Fishbone knot

This artistic ribbon is made up of a series of intertwined strands that form a kind of herringbone. It is elegant and formal.

5. Rose Knot

Romantic in style, this passionate knot is shaped like a handmade rose and shares similarities with the Trinity knot, but with the addition of an extra twist.

6. Ellie Knot

Leaves a tail that allows you to tighten or loosen. Works best with semi wide neck openings.

7. True Love Knot

This is a tie knot of considerable difficulty, but visually beautiful. Well done, it has a perfect symmetry in 4 sectors, symbolizing a heart.

8. Boutonniere Knot

This knot is characterized by its long loops, so it is recommended to be worn with wide collared shirts. The loop is very similar to the Fishbone knot.

9. Krasny Hourglass Knot

This tie, as it is tied, creates the hourglass look. It is impossible to adjust after being tied, so it needs to be done right the first time. It is recommended to wear with striped ties.

10. Merovingian Knot

It is one of the most special, because the thin end of the tie will be seen in front of its thicker end. It is as if the tie is wearing another tie.

11. Atlantic Knot

It is original, different from the others. It is a triple knot and it is recommended for ties that do not have a pattern. The realization of the knot is very easy to make, but it is difficult to arrange it so that it is well aligned.

12. Cape Knot

You should use it paying attention to the details: the collar of the shirt should be stylized and if it is white or solid color, even better. Before a complex knot, the ideal is to keep the simplicity in the rest of the style. You can do it in 5 movements and the result is a completely symmetrical knot.

13. Capsule Knot

It looks best with semi wide neck openings. It's casual and similar to the Atlantic, but larger.

14. Grantchester Knot

It's a symmetrical, oversized knot that works with almost any type of shirt or collar.

15. Linwood Taurus knot

This bow is a work of art, as it simulates the look of a bull. It is recommended to wear it with wide collared shirts and on casual occasions.

16. Windsor Knot

The Windsor knot is perfectly symmetrical and triangular in shape, which adds to its complexity. The Windsor knot is also characterised by its XL volume, which means that it can only be combined with long, narrow ties.

17. Half Windsor Knot

You can subtract a turn from the previous one and turn it into a half Windsor or Spanish knot. It is very versatile.

18. Nicky Knot

It requires a fairly small number of movements in the cast, producing a symmetrical knot.

19. Plattsburgh Knot

This original and sophisticated knot was invented by the co-author of the book "85 Ways to Tie a Tie" by Thomas Fink, born in Plattsburgh. It is a conical shaped and symmetrical knot.

20. Balthus Knot

Also called the Double Windsor, it is the perfect knot for an elegant look. To tie it, a long tie is required, as it will take a few turns.

21. Onassis Knot

It is characterized because the knot is completely hidden and gives the impression of being a scarf knotted around the neck. It is necessary to use a hook or a clip to hold it better.

22. Pratt Knot

Also called Shelby knot, it is the knot used by Daniel Craig in his role as "James Bond". It is versatile, elegant, highly symmetrical and of medium size.

23. Four In Hand Knot

The classic par excellence, it is the simplest, quickest, thinnest, sharpest and asymmetrical knot, also called Simple or American knot.

24. Hannover Knot

It is bulky and ideal for shirts with Italian collars. To make it, the large loop of the garment starts at the back and is knotted in front of the small one. Keep turning until the loop is formed.

25. Christensen Knot

It is very elegant, but it is almost out of use because of its complication. It consists of crossing the tie between the first and the second loop, so it is advisable to use it only with thin ties. The final result is a V-shaped tie.

26. Persian Knot

Large, distinguished and triangular in shape, it is perfect for slim ties and narrow or semi-wide collars.

27. Cavendish knot

It is a small knot, very similar in shape to the Simple knot and is perfect for different types of ties.

28. Eric Glennie Knot

Also called Double Glennie, it's quite striking and looks especially good on tall men. Being a double knot, it uses a lot of fabric and especially favors stripes.

29. Four Rings Knot

Produces a puffy four-ring knot effect and is ideal for parties.

30. Diagonal Knot

Also known as Italian knot, it is not in the center of the neck, but in a diagonal position. More casual than others, but no less informal.
