Today, I’m going to show you how to wear collar bars.
Collar bars, they are called that way because they are literal bars with two little ball ends or just screw ends, hexagonal ends, square ends and all you do is you can basically unscrew it. For this kind of bar, you actually need a shirt with so-called pinholes. What you do is open up the bar, just unscrew it. Make sure that it's just one end that’s unscrewed. You lift your tie knot. Then, you bring it to the other side through the other
hole. Make sure it’s tightened through. Use the other end and you tie it back on.
Once you’re in, you can simply turn it like so, until it’s tight. Now it’s tight. You adjust it. And that’s what it looks like. The collar bar.
Again, in order to wear the collar bar, you need the pinhole shirt and if you have that, I recommend you get them custom made because otherwise, the holes are often in the wrong position. Ideally, they should be pretty much in the middle of the collar.
Otherwise, they are too low and they don’t elevate your tie knot enough. If you don’t know where to get custom made shirts,
Follow the link to shirt reviews I did in all price ranges. If you want a collar bar, just follow the link. We carry a range of bars in gold and silver in different sizes and looks. I’m sure you will find something you like.
The third option you have is the so-called collar clip. The collar clip as the name implies has little clip mechanisms that clip to the collar. Oftentimes they are very weak and if you put them in your collar, they kind of move around over the course of the day. That’s why we really paid attention to get a very strong spring mechanism that actually works.
Okay, let me show you how to use it. Again, you need a shirt that is not too spread. More like a classic collar as you can see here. Once the tie is knotted, you use a spring mechanism on one end and do the same thing on the other end. And, once you’re in there you make sure that the tie knot is elevated. So you get the beautiful debonair look of the tie knot popping out. And it’s going to stay like this all day because you really have a strong mechanism. And it’s not going to move or anything. So people have loved these collar bars because they are very strong and very reliable and they don’t really hurt your shirt collar so there’s no hole, unlike with the safety pin. Once you iron it, it’s going to be good. If you’re interested in collar bars, we offer these exact ones in silver and gold in our shop.
