Hi All,

I did a bit of search and came up empty -- I'm building up a tuxedo for a gala in a couple of weeks and the last thing I'm trying to get my hands on is a decent & affordable bow tie to finish it off. I've got a black satin bow tie from the The Tie Bar, but it's only a 2.5" height and it just seems a bit small when I put it on. I'm struggling to find something a bit larger (at least 2.75"), yet not $60+. Any suggestions? Or is this just where the answer is "pay the money"?

Thanks!

Kent Wang carries them for $45. Haven't seen them in person but their neckties are well made.

I'd be willing to pay $45, but they don't have any measurements on Kent Wang. I'll shoot an e-mail to support so we'll have to see.
