How to Tie a Windsor Knot, Full Windsor, or Double Windsor & What To Avoid

[@markarato8034]

I dedicated this day to watch your videos and learn all the ties. Amazing channel, keep up the good work!

[@gentlemansgazette]

Thank you for the support!

[@bpilley]

I had a laugh out loud moment when you said "basically, it looks like it eats my face!" Thanks for all your videos!

4:43 and here we see the fabled quadruple Windsor knot. Bow before its might.

[@gentlemansgazette]

+JLConawayII It's a big knot indeed

[@IvanTacomaMarble]

Thanks for the video, it was great!

[@gentlemansgazette]

+Ivan Tacoma Excellent! Did you like and subscribe?

[@georgestephens2038]

I like the one with a Thicker Tie, looks good

[@arianadolores5769]

Great vid! Thanks 😊

[@guyman4234]

love the videos. I have never seen a shirt like the one you are wearing.

[@pabloandreshernandez6433]

I love this video. I wish seen this in your channel in Spanish. Thank you for all.

[@jqc0990]

Could you do a video on ascot ties?

[@FullContactDrummer]

You tie it backwards...wide on the right! ha ha...just how I was shown. Really dig your videos.

[@greggy553]

I was educated in a parochial school for 12 years. Every day of every year I wore a tie. My brother showed me how to make a Half-Windsor knot when I was 8 or so. In my humble opinion a Full Windsor knot does not look good with the wing collar. I don't think its symmetrical at all. A Windsor knot looks much better with a straight, point collar.

[@btiercontent3127]

Yes thank you

[@ThisrescuedLife]

Hahahaha. I laughed out loud when tied that huge knot.

[@gentlemansgazette]

Itst gigantic isn't it?

[@davidsmith8376]

I much prefer an asymmetrical knot, a half Windsor or a four-in- hand, with a cutaway (spread) collar. The Full Windsor always looks a bit naff to me. I liked your shirt though and the cut on the collar; very nice.

[@ashbridgeprojects6916]

In UK schools, we call this the "swat knot". Kids would make fun of you if you wore a big knot. A swat is a nerd/geek/teachers pet or someone who always follows the rules.

[@KalebC4]

Green Piece I hate when people go with a very small knot but do it badly (a well tied small knot looks fine). My brother doesn’t really care about how his ties look so he does the fast way (around his hand, in like 5 seconds) and it always looks like a parallelogram and it drives me nuts. Is this the kind of knot the kids would mostly use? I know there are a few ways to tie a fast, small knot that has the same look

[@jamesdashper1316]

I mean they don’t do they

[@kingkong5483]

Correct spelling would be, Swot Knot!

[@yoconscious7656]

So about how many layers of lipgloss do you put on before you attempt to tie a Windsor knot?

[@SITIFATIMAH-iw6bx]

Thats is correct how to tie full windsor / double windsor. Why i say that ? Long a ago, in 1990's, i learn how to tie neck tie. My master teach me same like this. ( before youtube appear ).

[@BruceCarbonLakeriver]

For special occations I use the merowingian knot from the movie The Matrix. It is basically a Windsor double knot on steroids but looks awesome but you need a VERY LONG tie for it. Otherwise you get either chocked or can't finish the knot. Fun fact: The merowingian know get pulled up by pulling on the broader side of the tie ;D

[@archardramiro2317]

awesome

[@Neuroguy1]

Informative, as usual, thanks. You have a slight accent, what is your native country?

[@jacobshigaki1291]

Raphael, what is your favorite knot

[@reyperez3424]

First comment on 2022!

[@commentyoutube8002]

I am 5' 7" or 5' 8" which tie size from your selection would be best for me?

[@gentlemansgazette]

A short one would be the way to go for you, unless you lime your ties long.

[@commentyoutube8002]

he meant to say "like"

[@KeyserSoze5421]

This is the 3rd different way that I have seen a full Windsor knot done on here. End result is predominately the same but a few differently steps in the process.

[@JFCotman]

Such as? 🤔

[@beardedsparks2825]

Watch more videos. There are 3 different ways to tie this knot.

[@smudger671]

The cutaway collar makes it look like you're being strangled.

[@BohemianGhost]

Great video! ...but the tight collar just does not look good at all ... seems almost to be a way to small shirt.

[@gentlemansgazette]

+Shawn-Johann Robert I guess you are wearing your collars too big

[@BohemianGhost]

+Gentleman's Gazette No offence intended. ... the collar button is clearly distressed to keep the collar closed and the shirtmaterial on the front also shows off that it is to tight ... i am a tailor and its just my opinion that a collar can sit tight but it should not look as if one gets strangled by it.

[@gentlemansgazette]

+Shawn-Johann Robert Once you shoot video, you will see that you see wrinkles that you never see in real life. The collar is definitely not too tight for me. The shirt was ironed before and looked perfectly fine, but in the video it looked bad... it happens.

[@warblerab2955]

@ 5:24, he says that a short man is 5'3" or shorter, while an average man is 5'9" - 6'2". What about if you are 5'4" - 5'8"?

[@tiborszabo9616]

It also says 173 cm which is about 5'8", so that's still considered short.

Nice. How can we contact you? Any email? I want to ask you something about a knot.

"Some for short men, some for normal men..."

[@Momo_Kawashima]

As a reversely tall guy I feel offended by that classification, I'll go get the tin cans to put under my shoes

[@itznoxy7193]

I'm not a fan of this knot. Even when using a thin tie it still rides too high on the collar. It breaks the line by coming over the top of the collar and exposes the wrinkles underneath. Hard pass.

[@eddyvasquez7]

Man,this is too damn fast.Good work though.

[@Renasense]

Why does your shirt looks so poorly pressed?!!! This wasn't a livestream, so there is no excuse! Good grief!!!

[@retardhunter69]

I need to know where that tie is from!

[@mescnick]

The uk

[@gentlemansgazette]

Sure, I put it on the list

[@KalebC4]

Gentleman's Gazette could you link your site in the description? Thanks

[@josephmejia5784]

"how to tie a tie and how knot to tie them" don't know if on purpose, but made me laugh.

[@TheMinarus]

Thick Windsor commends authority in an instant...If I may none of the knots look especially on par because the collar you are using is not made for a windsor, you may need a rather large collar for the symmetry of the winsor

[@lemonysnicket3153]

Larger than the cutaway colar? lol

[@bkojic7977]

This is not the proper way to do Windsor. Tied this way, it is not self-releasing. To make it self-releasing, in the very beginning after going left to right over the thin part, then under and up, instead of bringing it down on the left side, you have to bring it down on the right side, then over the left side, then over the knot left to right. Pretty much mirror image of what is presented here. This will be self-releasing and also more symmetrical.

[@ahmedlouws113]

I already knew how to do the knot and I knew there was something wrong with how he tied it! The fact that it's self releasing is one of the reasons why I like this knot a lot.

[@MadChristoph]

Windsor is probably the best knot to use if you want attention, makes you look like you're in charge

[@IroquoisPliskin42]

The height guide is so funny to me because there's just no advice for people 5'4" to 5'8" to give

[@PiranhaJaw22]

smaller men have smaller heads. makes sense..

[@waltersickinger1499]

Gentlemen do not wear a Windsor knot. It’s reserved for cads and used car salesmen. Gentlemen wear a four in hand.

[@nycboxing8359]

Nice video but should have ironed your shirt before the vid.

[@abdulhadi-xd2db]

Ok

[@Momo_Kawashima]

Why do you have to remind me that I'm short *angry in 1.72*

[@alexsaturnino1481]

Keep with the videos and stay away from math, 5’3” is NOT 1.73 cm; and also the other cm measures are wrong

[@hasanomda4836]

[@Luke_D_Brown_2000]

How did you dimple that knot? I thought Windsor knot was too thick to make a dimple?

[@jessric5947]

My dad gave me a tie literally the same as the one you used for the demo

[@douglasbennett5667]

It is the preppy knot for cutaway or button down collar

[@alanmlkbanda]

None of these KZbinr know how to properly teach that

[@46GarageUSA]

The 80's knot I call it .. lol

[@vicktoriousng7948]

Sir, 5'3"is no way 173cm.

[@Zangalwaal]

Where is the blue tie from?
