Tie clips are used to keep neckties securely attached to dress shirts. They usually measure two to two-and-one-fourth inches long and one-fourth inch wide (approximately). They are made with a spring on one side to provide tension to the opposite side for sliding them smoothly across the necktie. Their front side can be plain, adorned, or custom-designed with company logos or personal objects of interest.
Aside from being functional, tie clips are also decorative. According to some fashion experts, suits and neckties “can never be complete without tie clips.”
