In the U.S., people not in the Army are not soldiers, especially so for Marines â who will strongly protest being painted with that brush. âTroopsâ or âservice membersâ are the umbrella terms that refer to all the members of the military.
As a general rule for all tie knots, the widest part of your tie should hang roughly at the same height as the upper edge of your leather belt, with the tieâs tip extending slightly below it. The tip of the narrow end would then hang wherever it may.
The length of our regular ties is about 58 inches. This is the standard necktie length available at most stores and fits most people. The best way to tell is to measure a regular tie that fits you now. If it is around 58 inches, then regular ties from The Tie Bar will fit. We offer our regular length neckties in four different widths, ranging from traditional to skinny. Consult our size guide for more information about our width options.
