Men's Ties 

Discover M.J. Bale's collection of men's ties, including silk, patterned and knitted ties for business, weddings and formal occasions. The right tie should complement your shirt, suit or jacket and dress code, bringing the colours, patterns and proportions of your outfit together. 

Match Your Tie to Your Shirt & Suit 

Start with your shirt and suit, then choose a tie that complements the overall colour palette. Classic colours and restrained patterns pair easily with business shirts and suits, while textured or knitted ties can soften a less formal tailored look.

Consider the shirt collar and jacket lapel when choosing your tie. The proportions should feel balanced, with the tie width complementing the scale of the collar and lapels.

Choose a Tie for the Dress Code 

For business dressing, silk ties in classic colours or subtle patterns offer a polished finish. For weddings, consider the suit, season and dress code, with more flexibility for colour, pattern and texture. For black-tie events, choose a bow tie with a tuxedo rather than a standard necktie.

Complete the outfit with a pocket square for an additional accent. It should complement your tie and wider colour palette rather than match the tie exactly.
