A little history on the Bolo Tie

The bolo tie, also known as the Texan tie, bolo tie or American tie, is an accessory worn around the neck like a classic fabric tie. Bolo ties come in various designs and materials, highlighting their style, craftsmanship, and cultural significance. The tie consists of a braided leather cord (often leather) held together by a decorative brooch.

The bolo is often associated with a western or cowboy tie, but it was only designed and patented in the 1950s by American Vic Cedarstaff. The bolo was worn by Clint Eastwood and John Travolta in the iconic film Pulp Fiction. Pairing a bolo tie with a buttoned down collar or Western dress shirt can achieve a polished appearance. This accessory is also deeply connected to cowboys and Western heritage, emphasizing strength and tradition.

This accessory will give you a retro look that’s reminiscent of westerns, a change from the monotonous fabric tie, an original and unusual piece. We offer bolos ties with a variety of embellished designs, including Indian beading and decorative metal pieces, that will remind you of the American Dream, and that you can wear as a change from the classic black tie. Silver is commonly used in the tips and clasps of bolo ties, enhancing their aesthetic appeal. Our collection includes silver bolo ties known for their craftsmanship and distinctive designs. The adjustable slide mechanism allows you to tighten or loosen the tie for a perfect fit. Recognized as the state's official neckwear in New Mexico, bolo ties hold cultural significance, especially in the American Southwest. Influential figures like Ansel Adams and various celebrities have worn bolo ties, showcasing their timeless appeal.
