Knot Theory gained a full page review in the WE by Steven Schelling.

"Even more innovative is her unique link closure knot, an envelope-like piece of fabric that wraps around the tie and closes with a chain link to give the appearance of a knot. No need to know how to tie a tie in the bleary-eyed morning," writes Schelling. The full article can also be read here online.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

KNOT THEORY PIONEERS WITH NEW GENERATION UNISEX TIES

(Vancouver, Canada)

Knot Theory™ is Canada’s hottest modern necktie company and a global first in the fashion industry.

Ties have always been a focal point, some more sophisticated than others, yet none quite as sexy and innovative as the new tie collection from Knot Theory™ - they are a hot staple for your wardrobe. The coming seasons are all about colours and “classics with a twist” for both men and women. Ties are a hot accessory, and Knot Theory’s new silhouette designs are unprecedented: every style is unisex. Now, the ladies can borrow their man’s razor and tie.

Knot Theory™ pioneered the Link Closure Knot™, which is an interchangeable knot, inspired by the 19th century cufflinks and detachable cuffs. The knot is a clever design. It allows you to match an array of coloured knots to the tie, thereby creating several looks with just one tie.

“Neckties have seen very little updates in the past nine decades. At Knot Theory, we want to do something different. We want to introduce innovations while still honouring the classic elements of a tie,” says Tanya Huang, founder and designer of Knot Theory™.

Knot Theory™'s distinct tie styles range from defiant boldness to elegant subtlety. Customers are raving from coast to coast, and hotspots such as Sweden, Japan and Switzerland. “A Knot Theory tie is like having an everlasting explosion on your chest,” says Brian Vidovic, Founder of EXP Entertainment. “It’s devastatingly beautiful and obviously dangerous.”

For that special someone who has everything - the right girl, job, car, and even hair – these ties are a perfect gift. A Knot Theory™ tie offers something timeless, unique, yet practical and versatile. He can wear it to the office, social minglings, summer weddings, and she can borrow it to spice up that stunning sleeveless top. The tie adds an entirely new dimension.

Each Knot Theory™ tie is beautifully made by expert tailors and sewists in Canada, with bridal grade Duchess satin. The fabric is friendly - makeup, lipstick, red wine and coffee stains will come right off. These ties are made to last a lifetime.

Knot Theory™ is available online and ships internationally. For more information about Knot Theory™, please visit www.knottheoryties.com.
