How to Wear a Bolo Tie
A bolo tie is a braided leather cord held by a decorative slide — and a sterling silver, Native American-made slide is the piece people notice first. Here's how to wear one right.
1. Put It On
Drape the cord around your neck, under the shirt collar, the same way you'd wear a necktie. Let the two tips hang evenly down the front, then slide the silver piece up the cords.
2. Choose Your Height
Dressed up: button the top button and slide the bolo snug to the collar, right where a tie knot sits. This is the classic look for weddings, church, galas and the office.
Relaxed: leave the top button or two open and let the slide sit lower on the chest, a few inches below the collar. Perfect for a night out, a concert or the rodeo.
3. Mind the Tips
The silver tips on the ends of the cord should hang roughly to mid-chest or just above your belt. Keep both sides even so the piece looks balanced.
4. What to Wear It With
Pearl snap or western shirt: the most natural pairing — solid colors let the stone stand out.
Suit or sport coat: swap the necktie for a bolo with a crisp white or light blue dress shirt. A turquoise cluster or black onyx piece makes a sharp groom or groomsman look.
Denim: a denim shirt or jacket with a turquoise bolo is classic Southwest style.
Women's style: bolos look great over a blouse, a western dress, or worn long and loose like a pendant necklace.
5. Match Your Metals and Stones
Pair sterling silver with a silver belt buckle, concho belt, rings or a turquoise cuff for a put-together look. Turquoise pops against white, black, denim and earth tones. Black onyx works with almost anything and is the go-to for formal events. Finish it with a cowboy hat from our Hat Bar.
6. Care for Your Sterling Silver
Store your bolo flat or hanging, away from moisture. Polish the silver gently with a soft silver cloth — avoid dips and harsh chemicals on turquoise and other natural stones. Keep it away from perfume, cologne and water.
