How To Tie A Double Four-In-Hand | Tie A Tie
About this video
Sacawa teaches how to tie the double four-in-hand knot, his preferred tie knot, which features an extra wrap around the tie compared to the classic four-in-hand. He demonstrates the step-by-step technique and explains why he favors this knot, particularly for those with shorter torsos, as the additional wrap proportionally shortens the tie.
Key takeaways
- Sacawa recommends the double four-in-hand knot as his favorite tie knot because it creates a distinctive double-wrap appearance when worn
- Sacawa argues that this knot is particularly useful for people with shorter torsos since the extra wrap shortens the overall tie length and creates better proportions
- Sacawa suggests keeping a finger inside the loop during the wrapping process and pulling the tie straight when tightening to create a sharp dimple in the knot
