Hi this was the easiest tutorial I have come across. Thank you so much👍🏽
Who else has a wedding in a few hours? Hahaha, Great tutorial mate.
Enjoy it. And be sure to wear your tie round your head on the dance floor at the reception! 👔👍
yes mate! will have this vid in the changing room area on a big screen! 1...2....3.....follow this man evr1
I used this technique at my wedding lol
Robert Jhonson I’m going to dance for one
I have one trm but I dont want to try it on anymore. It's confusing. I will do it tomorrow morning lmao
I'm 75 years old and I finally know how to correctly tie a tie. Thanks for the clear, concise video.
Without doubt the best tutorial on RUclips how to do this. No fanfare, no messing around. Simple but clear demonstration. Perfect. Thank you.
Thank you!
😢
😅
My father taught me this more than 40 years ago, and it is the only knot I’ve ever used. It is simply the best looking way to tie a tie.
Catch a fish
Yes sir, that's absolutely true! It's also the only knot I ever used because it's THE best knot ever invented in the past, present and future😄
My stepfather taught me another knot and I just learned this one. This one is So Much Better
As a wife and mom who didn't know how to tie a tie... I watched this and within 5 minutes mastered the art of tieing a tie.. now both my husband and young adult son are looking great in their suits!! Thank you.
Great! That's what I'm here for!
Congratulations!
You're next to ask is to work on your spelling. 🎉
Tying a tie 😂
@@miss_sunshine25& your next "to ask" is to pay attention towards the 'task' of spell checking ones own grammar before criticising the grammar of others Miss Sunshine.
As someone who was never shown how to tie a tie as a kid growing up I gotta say thanks. I have a wedding to go to tomorrow and I'm making an effort. I've always looked sloppy wearing a tie - but after a couple of tries I've got it looking pretty sharp. This was really useful and fast so yeah. Nice one.
That’s great to here! Like all things in life, a little practice pays dividends. Enjoy the wedding! 👔👊
In 39 years I have always had someone tie my tie but you sir just helped me through it all. Thank you!!
This was the easiest of the millions of tutorials to follow. thanks
Thanks John, this was an easy comment to enjoy too!
Yes sir😊
Haha
6 yrs later and you're still helping people tie their ties 😊😊 thanks man.. this video was a life saver !!
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the clear instruction and dry humor! I used to tie the very basic ‘Oriental Knot’ but a lot of people commented on how bad it looked. The full Windsor used to intimidate me but I finally got it down! Took me more like 5 minutes and a few tries (thin end was way too long first 3 attempts), but I got it and I look sharp 😎
My man, sorted for my murder charge in court now!
What was the verdict?
@@TaylorSwiftOfficol Guessing convicted, and locked up 🤷🏻♂️ lol
My father taught me the Windsor knot when I was 12 years old, almost 60 years ago, and it's the absolute best way to tie a tie. One more addition to this knot can take place when you loop the wide end through the last time so it finally hangs in front: when you pull gently you can come up with a nice notch or dimple in the tie just at the knot that adds a nice finishing touch. It's a beautiful symmetrical knot.
Happy 73rd birthday man
Napoleon Klein 60 years ago when you were 12 did you ever question your father's sexualuty?
My dad taught me that you put the dimple below the knot for sad occasions such as funerals and leave it out for happy occasions like weddings.
It being symmetrical is the reason why i like this knot. A lot of people hate this knot because of that, but a four in hand or any other asymmetrical knot just looks awful abd sloppy as if you dont know how to tie your tie properly.
You make it look so easy ...it toke me one hour
No it's quite easy
Truly the best tutorial I have seen. Its at the right speed and clear took me only 2 minutes to learn to tie the windsor with this video and I struggled for over an hour piror just to be unsuccessful. Really useful
Glad it helped!
Great information, well explained. Men need this type of channel b/c the old fashioned gentlemen are disappearing.
Honestly loved this knot, used to do simpler ones just because they were quick but after this I’m never going back. Thanks!
You are so welcome!
Yesss! I finally got it after 45 mins of strangling myself by the neck 😂 thanks for the help was brilliant
why don't wear pre-tied necktie? Easy USE, SAVE Time, only 15.79/4 packs quality zipper tie amzn.to/2W5bcQB
I had a job interview this morning! I watched two other videos on how to make tie knots while watching my clock tick. This video showed me how to make a knot, a nice looking one I might add, on my first try and watch!!! Thank you so much for making this video!
Great news! I bet you get the job. My father always told me that if you dress like the boss, it’s easy for people to imagine you being the boss! 👊👔
@@ReefKnotsUK THATS BRILLIANT!
Best concise explanation on youtube. The “two shoulder” explanation made me understand exactly how and why the knot works, so that I was instantly able to remember the steps.
Taught my son how to execute the Windsor after 3 tries with this video!!! Awesome stuff!
Thanks for the video - short, sweet and super easy to follow! I have not had to tie a tie in over 5 years and had forgotten. I had two remote video interviews yesterday and your tutorial saved me! Thanks!
You are welcome!
Thanks for this. Im getting ready for an interview and this vid was quick and informative. Non of the extra fluff! Thumbs up! Maybe you can teach a session at the Mister Earth competition.
This video just saved me. I havent had to wear a tie in over 35 years and I need one for a job interview. I was able to do it with on the first try compared to the other videos I was watching. THANK YOU!!
Watching 2 hours before my interview. Lifesaver!
I have a formal parade today for remembrance
This helped alot
Very helpful! Thank you so much for the quick video! It took me about 7 times to get the length right!, but I did it! 😁
Absolutely brilliant. I have been envious of people with big knots for years but never knew how to tie them. This video has changed that. Thank you very much, from Northern Ireland.
TY Sir
Passing this along to my youngest son to use tomorrow for his Homecoming Dance.
Many Blessings 🙏🇺🇸
You helped so many men with this 😂
Thx so much! I was panicking thinking that I would never learn to tie a tie
Panic over! 😏
I wanted to say "Thank you so very much!" I have a job interview this afternoon and a Windsor knot is exactly what was needed for my shirt's collar style. S/O from Richmond, VA.
Glad it was helpful!
Oh my gosh I’ve been trying for an hour and then watched this video once ... changed my life !
Fantastically Helpful. This is a different method than others I've seen, and this makes the most sense to me. Cheers!
Seeming total tie length varies by manufacturer-
Is there an optimal length ?
For windsor I've found 'XL' 63 inch ties work best, on your average tie the windsor knot will leave the tail way too short
I never had a father to teach me this, you're my father now
Same
Worked great first try! Heard so many people say how hard this knot is and complain but this made their arguments invalid, it’s all about the teacher.
So then, should a 1/2 Windsor take 30 seconds ?
I'm stuck on the second step after you make the first shoulder. It doesn't come out like yours help 😣 also it doesn't be the back side of the tie, it would always come out to the front when I do the second step
Try to male sure the tie doesn’t get twisted during the creation of the shoulders. This could leave it facing the wrong way.
Holy crap man, nobody has ever been able to teach me that. I watch your video once and I got it! You're the man
Sat in an Asda car park waiting for an interview for my dream job (not at Asda) and this video has saved the day!
Finally. Your are the best tutorial for this.. thank you.. I'm from Wisconsin in the US.
😍😎
Great learned it in 5 minutes or less!
...
The only tie tying tutorial on RUclips that clearly explains the motions without over explaining. Thank you!
I was looking to go to butler training soon and I realized I did not know how to tie a Windsor knot. With the help of this video I finally understood how it is executed. Thank you!
Thanks bro, I always thought I was gonna have to ask my mom to tie my tie for me. You earned a like.
the best tutorial by far
Thank you! Thats very kind.
I logged in just to comment that I’m 34 years old and today I finally learned to tie a tie you did what countless others couldn’t lol.
Glad I could help!
Thank you for giving an easy and well explained tutorial about how to do the Windsor Knot - this really helped!

(alllllll the way from the United States)
as a single grandmother of grandsons.... (dad deceased)
This is very, very helpful... and straight forward
"Thank You"
Many thanks, sir. Don't have a father to teach me these things. I appreciate you, truly.
You are very welcome
Reef: shouldn't have taken longer than one minute
Me: it took 20 minutes
I don't get this it's perfect up u til I pull it through the knot it ruins it pulling it through and yep shitty knot is the result I don't know always after pulling it through it ruins it
I agree this thing is as stupid as shit
yeah i have a square tie
Of all the windsor knot tutorials, this is top-notch.
Best one I’ve seen on RUclips.
Thank you so much you are helping a single mom of a young man look great at church
You are very welcome!
My graduation is in 3 days, you just saved me!
First proper Windsor knot after 42 years, thanks mate. No half boy knots anymore
I ‘m watching your instruction from the United States. Thank you !
You’re welcome 😊
This was very simple and easy thank you for sharing! I didn’t know how to tie a knot until I watched this video.
You are so welcome!
Tried many guides that are minutes long and with this one i did it on the first try! Thank you liked and subscribed
Can't like this enough. Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you from America - this caught my eye and I already did one and will be back for more.
Life saver, excellent tutorial. 10/10 easy to follow and only took me 20 attempts to get it right.
Persistence pays!
Mate you're a bloody superstar, this is the 3rd video I've watched since i decided against my usual half Windsor and the first one I've been able to follow due to its ease.... take a bow son
Wow, thanks!
Mr Knots, thank you kindly for this tutorial. Complication made simple.
Nicely done! Well explained and simple to follow. Thanks!
You're the goat, I needed to tie my tie on a rush for an event and you just saved me, brother
Glad I could help
My father has teached me many times, but I'm not a rope-and-knots guy..... So I watch your videos every sabbath before church, before weddings and business meetings.... you have saved me many times. Thank you so much! Greetings from Brazil!
I’m so pleased I can help you out!
Patrick, I've been tying ties since I was a teenager, but have only recently become interested in tying full Windsor knots (after watching several seasons of Suits on Netflix! 😁). I have looked at several RUclips videos on how to tie them. Most of the presenters did an exemplary job in tying them, but I just wasn't getting the tie right, at least not consistently. When I ran across yours, your explanation about how wrapping the blade of the tie to make shoulders for the knot was a game changer for me, it all made sense! My only suggestion would be for the users to pinch the very top of the tie as they pull it through the final time to give a dimple. Your presentation was brilliant! Thank you. Great job...
Glad I could help sort it for you. I’ll add the dimple next time!
I've been watching different videos and this is the only one I had success with. Thanks!
This simple technique has atrophied out of my brain in our business casual world, but it's back.....for now, thanks to you, sir! 🤣
You are most welcome
Very helpful, I watch this every time I have to wear a tie.
Great to hear!
My first day at American Airlines, just did this on the bus! Great video!!
I just tied my son's first (non clip-on) tie for his first highschool dance. Thank you for getting us through this.
Great! Glad it helped!
Hailing from Brazil to say you saved my wedding
Excellent instructions. There's something reassuringly sound when you have a Windsor knot.
This video is hands down the best I have seen. I did learn in under a minute!
Get in!
Best tie video out there, I watched 4 before this one and failed .. this one was the best thank you!!
Wow, thanks!
Thank you! Single mom here...getting my son ready for high school graduation. 🙌🏽
My dog and I are dressing up as the men in black for Halloween so this really helped. Thank you
Christmas Party tomorrow. You just saved me from a lot of holiday stress! Happy Holidays.
Cheers for the video. I needed a refresher. Five years since I have worn a tie.
Glad it was useful! Thanks for leaving a comment. 👔👊
Great lesson! Plus you had me at “I was pretty clear in the title” 😂
Out of ALL the tutorials I’ve watched, YOU SIR are the best 👍. Thanks!!!
The only video I’ve managed to follow! You’ve saved my prom haha
Watched three different ones and this one was easiest to understand! Thankyou!
The best and easiest video to actually TIE A TIE!!!! Finally after 3 hours of struggle, I came across this video and could do it in less than 3 mins :/ :/ :/ THANK YOU!!!!!
brilliant. fast. done. (only took me 54 years to do one) thanks much!
By far the best tutorial on this knot. Thanks!
Kind words. Thank you!
I come here everytime I need to wear a tie. You've saved me many a time.
This video helped me tie a tie around my 3 yr old niece 😆 thanks guy!
You deserve a subscribe and like and all the accolades! I had watched so many RUclips videos on this over the years and have never succeeded in getting a good Windsor knot and now I got a job requiring me to wear suit and tie everyday and the buddy I used to tie them moved far away. For some reason I stumbled upon your video and it clicked, I tied my tie and went and tied 10 more of my untied ties. I was doing the last step backward. Thanks
This morning I had to tie a tie for the first time in almost 2 years and was shocked that I found t remember how! Your vid has saved me from a red face! Thank you. 🥵
Just saved me for this holiday party! Thanks
