Share your ideas, logos, photos, or artwork, and work one-on-one with our talented design team, who will guide and refine your vision to create a final product you’ll love. Whether you’re designing for yourself or as a gift, we make custom simple, stylish, and sustainable.

10 Reasons Why Knotty Tie Outshines The Competition:

Here's why we’re the top choice for professionals, schools, organizations, small businesses, event organizers, and anyone who values exceptional quality and creativity in their custom ties.

1. No Minimum Orders

Other custom tie companies impose high minimum order quantities. At Knotty Tie Co, whether you need one tie or one thousand, we’ve got you covered.

2. No Fee to Start Designing

Unlike competitors who charge just to get started, we only collect a $20 design fee at check out when you decide to purchase.

3. Superior Printing Techniques

While many custom tie companies print designs on pre-made ties which results in unwanted blank white areas, we print your designs onto fabric first and then craft the tie for seamless all-over coverage.

4. Unlimited Colors, No Extra Cost

Say goodbye to color limitations most other custom tie companies impose. Feature as many colors as you like with no additional fee!

5. Premium Quality and Proper Weight

Other tie companies often use flimsy, thin materials that lack structure and feel cheap.  At Knotty Tie Co we use a premium interlining that has a thickness to it to ensure a high-quality finish with a good weight, providing durability and a polished look.

6. Traditional Construction, Superior Craftsmanship

Unlike some of our competitors that use glue to assemble their ties, Knotty Tie Co takes pride in using professional sewing techniques with traditional necktie construction.  This approach, combined with our use of premium materials, ensures a level of durability, comfort, and sophistication that glued ties simply can't match.

7. Size Options to Fit Every Preference

No more goofy neckties that are too wide or not long enough!  With 3 width styles and 4 length options, we offer the widest sizing selection on the market by far.  This ensures that there's a tie to fit every height, body type, and style preference perfectly.

8. Quick Turnaround Times

Some of our competitors take over six weeks for large custom orders. Knotty Tie Co delivers even our larger sized orders in less than four weeks.

9. Easy Reordering

Need to reorder later? Do it instantly from your project page without having to wait on email responses or invoices.

10. Sustainability and Social Impact

Proudly made in the USA (Denver, Colorado) with recycled materials, all of our ties are ethically made, supporting employment opportunities for resettled refugees. You can wear our ties with pride, knowing you're contributing to a greater cause!

Knotty Tie's team was able to help us with a color example to go along with the ones we created. I ordered swatches of 3 versions and received them in a very timely manner. We liked 2 of them a lot and ended up ordering both.”
