how to tie a half windsor knot

The Half Windsor Knot is a modest version of the Full Windsor Knot. It produces a slightly smaller knot than the Full Windsor, but it's definitely admired for its convenience. The Half Windsor Knot produces a substantial dimple in the fabric when it's tied up and looks undoubtedly just as regal as its full counterpart. In fact, it's more versatile due to its medium size. The Half Windsor Knot is symmetrical and will adequately suit both casual and formal looks. Have a go at mastering this pompous technique and observe it transform you into a king.

ABOUT THIS KNOT

The Half Windsor Knot is derived from the Windsor Knot as a smaller and quicker alternative. The Half Windsor Knot only brings the tie through the neck loop on one side instead of both, making it slightly smaller than the Full Windsor.

The Half Windsor Knot is a straight forward knot to execute. However, if you want to produce a substantial dimple in the fabric, make sure you fasten the knot tightly and slide it up towards the collar as much as you can.
