A good tie can make all the difference in a guy's outfit. Whether he's heading to the office or wants to dress up a white button down for a fancy affair, a polished tie is just the accessory for pulling together a sharp ensemble. While ties may have taken a hit during the work from home era, nowadays more and more guys are returning to the signature accessory of sophistication to show off their style. To make getting involved in the tie renaissance easier, we searched the internet far and wide to find the very best options out there.
The key to choosing a tie that you'll actually be excited about is simple: don't choose a ho-hum option. Whether it's a dynamic color, a playful pattern, a modern silhouette, or a luxe, sophisticated fabric, there are so many ties out there that break the mold. Especially when gifting for the special man in your life, you want to be sure that the tie you pick is different from anything that's already hanging in his closet. We know not every guy is ready to go completely against the grain with a floral tie or knit tie, so there are plenty of classic options with modern upgrades to choose from too. Whatever the personal style or occasion, there's a tie for him on this list.
Guys who prefer their look a little more subdued can still get a dash of interest from the wool texture of this charcoal grey tie.
