This black zipper tie is one of our most popular uniform ties for groups and staff. The solid color is classic and can be worn in any uniform setting, from a fast food restaurant to a black tie event. This is a pre-tied black tie and looks exactly like a regular tie when worn. Zipper ties have a band that hides under the shirt collar, which makes it a bit more secure than a clip-on tie. It’s easy to put on, once you know the secret. (See the instructions below to learn how to expand the collar and zip it closed.) Our black zipper ties come in three lengths, to fit men, women and teens. Most will wear the standard 20-inch length. However, shorter 17-inch and extra long 23-inch lengths are available. (Widths vary by size from 3 to 3.5-inches.) These zipper ties are made from a durable material with a not-too-shiny and not-too-matte finish. For individuals who prefer pre-tied ties, there are matching black pocket squares and socks sold separately to complete an outfit. We recommend this shade for a standard black.

Product Features Available in three sizes, measured from the top of the knot to the tip of the tie: Extra long men's 23" length and 3.5" width Standard men's 20" length and 3.5" width Women's, teen's or shorter men's 17" length and narrow 3" width Color is black Made from 100% Polyester Light satin finish Imported Instructions The zipper must be released before wearing this tie. To do so, grasp the knot in one hand and, with your other hand, give a slight tug to each side of the neck loop to free the zipper. Repeat if necessary. Do not pull hard, as this may break the zipper.To wear the zipper tie, pull the loop wider (moving the zippered tail up) to fit the tie over the head. Adjust the band under the collar, then pull down on the tail to tighten the tie.Rubbing the zipper with wax paper or candle wax will help keep the zipper tie working easily and smoothly.
