Review on πŸ‘” VOBOOM Necktie: Stylish Skinny Pattern Tie and Versatile Accessories for Men by Edwin Kreps

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Thicker tie with smaller knot for cooler weather

This tie is 06 black herringbone, 50% wool, 50% polyester, thicker than I expected and quite warm so I find it suitable for cool days. Being a thicker tie, most knots I knew of turned out to be too bulky. At about 5ft 11in I was having trouble bringing the ends of my tie blades together but ended up on my waist until I tied a knot called the East Knot in a YouTube Hot To video titled "How to Tie a Tie - The Oriental Knot - The simplest and smallest knot" which creates a smaller knot with fewer layers which seems more appropriate for this tie. I also have one of the grey/blue/white check VOBOOM ties (style: 018) which are 30% wool and 70 % polyester which is much thinner than a wool herringbone tie and goes well with the regular knots to find the one that goes with each tie and is just the way you like it I wish VOBOOM would all its Do offer ties in a variety of lengths but other than that I'm happy with my purchase a polyester tie for work and now that I've found the right knot for it it looks good so it's a good tie if you're with small budget shopping. Keep in mind that it may be a bit short if you are a tall gentleman, but a little creativity will solve this problem. Overall I'm satisfied, it goes well with my herringbone wool vests.

Pros
  • Material: Wool Blend
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised
