The present invention provides a seaman style preset necktie characterized mainly in that the portions of the necktie below the tie knot are bifurated into two branches, there are no inner and outer ties as those with conventional neckties, and that the tie knot is suspended before the wearer's chest instead of being tied adjacent to the neck opening. In the present invention, both ends of the necktie are provided with zippers on the same side and the tie knot is provided with a pair of zipper sliders which are disposed invertedly relative to each other, the upper slider causing the portions of the necktie body to be gathered while the lower one causing them to be separated again, such that the position of the tie knot can be adjusted by sliding the sliders. After proper adjustment, by means of the fastening means on the ends of the outer cover of the tie knot, it is only necessary to fold and press said outer cover of the tie knot to be securely set.
The present invention relates to a necktie comprising a pair of elongated decorative fabric elements of substantially identical shapes adapted to be joined at lower portions to establish a predetermined center line, for said tie of selecting adjustable length; a zipper having tapes connected to said fabric elements adjacent said center line; the uppermost portions of said fabric elements being connected; the portions of said fabric elements between said connected uppermost portions and said joined lower portions at neck-engaging collar band of adjustable size.
A preformed necktie has an insert with a pair of connected diverging closed conduits interconnected by a support. A slide post extends from the support proximate the lower ends of the conduits. A tie portion is wrapped about the insert to form a knot and to become the front tie panel. The two ends of a neck-embracing loop have corresponding zipper panels and pass through the conduits to be joined by the slide and form a rear panel of the tie. The neck embracing loop is tightened or loosened by movement through the knot and slide.
A knot support for a necktie, includes a wedge shaped front having a wide upper portion and a narrow lower portion. A top edge of the wedge shaped front forms a V-shape and each side of the V-shape defines a substantially continuous curve as seen in frontal view. A necktie, such as a zippered necktie, is attached to the knot support. The necktie may be attached to a wearer's neck by a loop portion that forms a loop and has ends engageable by the knot support. The knot support is slidable relative to the loop portion to adjust a size of the loop.
