Knit Tie 2024
Styling Knit Ties for Different Occasions
Knit ties, which originated in the early 20th century, are neckties made with knit fabric. Unlike the typical ties that have a glossy finish and smooth texture, knit ties boast a unique look and feel due to their knit construction, making them a versatile choice for casual outfits.
At Makers Shirt Kamakura, we offer two types of knit ties: "German-made" and "Italian-made." Each type has distinct designs that pair differently with various outfits and coordinates.
Let's explore how to enjoy knit ties in style according to different occasions.
ASCOT Knit Tie
Made In Germany
Founded in 1908, ASCOT has established itself as a premier brand cherished by leading fashion houses worldwide for its exceptional quality. Guided by the philosophy of "making only the best," ASCOT has adorned the chests of gentlemen globally for over a century.
The history of the knit tie dates back to the late 1920s to early 1930s, and ASCOT is credited with being the first to use knit material in the production of ties. This innovation set the stage for the unique and versatile knit ties we know today.

Knit ties, often perceived as casual, actually have a rich history. ASCOT knit ties originated around the same time neckties became popular in early 19th century England. This makes them well-suited for styles incorporating British-made jackets.
They pair well with casual cotton or denim outfits and also complement wool suits, creating a cohesive look.
Italian Knit Tie
Made In Italy
The Italian knit ties are part of a collection sourced from a renowned fabric manufacturer in Italy, established in 1940. Based in the Como region, known for its silk production, this manufacturer supplies many top maison brands, solidifying its status as a leader in luxury trends. From this esteemed collection, we offer two designs: the classic wide blade knit tie and the square-end knit tie..

The wide blade knit tie is a versatile design suitable for business settings. Pairing it with a wool jacket and wool slacks creates an elegant business casual look. It also pairs well with lightweight outerwear, maintaining a polished appearance.
On the other hand, the square-end knit tie leans towards a more casual design. However, those with an 8 cm wide blade incorporate classic elements. The pronounced V-zone creates a stronger impression and exudes more elegance than other knit ties. This makes it a great choice not only for jacket and trousers styles but also for summer suits, such as those made from cotton.
