Black Zipper Tie not Wide as Mackinac Bridge
Is anyone aware of an outfit producing a black zipper tie that is not seemingly several inches wide at the base?
Not looking for an Italian secret agent get-up but I've held off on the zip-tie purchase for several years because I cannot seem to find one not modeled after after a low-key detective support role from one of the Dirty Harry movies.
I will probably grab a fatty if nothing else is available due to the increasing lethargy I am faced with.
Go in peace and chug the whiskey.

I did a zipper tie myself for about two months. Then I learned to tie a good knot and graduated.

You could eat 16 Krystal burgers with a Baby Ruth chaser every day for a year. Might I also suggest the airport courtesy cart for gate to gate transportation.
Your tie will appear pencil thin in no time.

Yup: get the (20" is normal) cravats zipper tie. Wore it for years. A pilot owns this company. Real good guy. I hated the clown wide ties too.

Been Zipper Strong for ten years now and my knot will always look more professional than yours!! Zipper tie till I die!!
But no, I get mine from the Stop Over Store, not sure if they're the fat ones the OP is referring to.

I've always just tied the best windsor knot I can make and kept it tied. When I need it off, I just slide the small part (like a zipper tie) and took it off from around my neck. Unless you're head is giant, then it won't work.
