The bow tie really looks great. Maybe that's the right tie for the bearded man? I'll have to think of that next time the chance rolls around.


Around these parts, a bolo tie is the right one for the bearded man. Shouts "Western" at first glance.

Of course, it doesn't matter what kind of tie you wear if one's beard is big enough to hide it. (No one would ever know if Patrick wears a tie these days!)

I haven't worn a knotted tie for over a year. I imagine it would be a challenge not to get a tie tangled up in a long beard. All the better for a bolo.
