The Cafe Knot? Learn This Unique Tie-Knot Easily | How To Tie A Tie Video

About this video

Centeno teaches how to tie the café knot, a medium-sized novelty tie knot with a flashy appearance designed for casual settings. He provides step-by-step instructions for tying the knot, demonstrates proper length and positioning, and explains why this uncommon knot works well for standing out at casual social events.

Key takeaways

  • Centeno argues the café knot is a medium-sized, slightly complex knot best suited for casual parties and medium spread collars
  • Centeno recommends adjusting the tie so it rests between the top and middle of the belt line, using a tie keeper loop or tie bar to secure the narrow end
  • Centeno teaches that starting position matters—if the finished knot is too short or too long, adjust where the wide end begins rather than retying entirely
