Bow Ties

The bow tie is the more striking counterpart to the tie. At John Crocket it comes in two materials: silk bow ties with the subtle sheen of silk, and tweed bow ties in British tweed with a calm, matt surface.

The silk bow ties carry the same patterns as the ties, with paisley, floral designs and medallion patterns, many in several colourways. The tweed bow ties are made of British tweed and rely on muted checks and mottled tones.

Silk bow ties should be dry-cleaned and never put in the washing machine. Brush tweed bow ties out carefully after wearing and have them dry-cleaned too if they get more heavily soiled.

If you prefer the more classic option, the tie collection holds the matching alternative, along with pocket squares in silk. Pure tweed bow ties have a selection of their own.
