The Importance of Tie Clips

A tie clip is a small men’s accessory used to keep a neck tie attaching 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 tie clips can be plain or decorated with small precious and semi precious stones. Some tie clips are custom designed and they feature a company’s logo or any representation of objects that the wearer is interested in.
Tie clips are easily confused with tie pins and tie clasps by people. 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. However, prolonged penetration may lead to damage if materials used in ties are expensive. Mens tie clips slide through shirt and tie without penetration and a spring clip is usually light so that it prevents the fabric damage
Tie clips are important apart from being decorative. Men’s ties are intended to cover the button of the dress shirt and to provide contrast and interest. Many fashion experts 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. A silver tie clip places two thirds of the way down the front of a neck tie and keeps it secured through most situations.
Decorative tie clips crosses jewelry have even become popular as gift ideas for shoppers on a budget. There are various styles available and one 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 high end clips for formal events.
