Proper Tie Length

Proper Tie Length

1) The Tip Of The Tie

The quickest answer to how to figure out the proper length of your tie is this: the tip of the tie (regardless of the shape) should hit right on top of your belt buckle or waist belt when standing up straight. Never above or below.

What length should a mans tie be?

Most ties for men are 57-inches long. This is enough that the back end should be able to reach the keeper loop on the back of the tie that holds the two ends together. While the majority of ties are this length, when wearing a tie it should always hit your waist, even though every man is a different size.
