10 Essential Ties - He Spoke Style
About this video
Sacawa presents 10 essential ties he recommends every man should own, explaining the versatility and styling applications of each. He covers classic options like striped navy and power ties, neutral solids, patterned styles, textured wools, knit ties, and formal bow ties, offering guidance on when and how to wear each piece and encouraging experimentation to develop a foundational tie collection.
Key takeaways
- Sacawa recommends starting a tie collection with versatile, neutral-toned pieces like striped navy and dark charcoal gray solids before adding bolder colors and patterns
- Sacawa argues that when wearing patterned or bold ties, keeping the rest of the outfit simple prevents the look from becoming too busy and lets the tie stand out

- Sacawa advises that textured wool ties are ideal for fall and winter layering and can dress up more rugged casual pieces
