Abstract
One embodiment of a thin, flat, and angular triangular device for an improved necktie having on one edge a lead-in notch (10) which merges into a button passage (12) before merging into a cove (22). Two bridges (14), made of a flexible material so that they can be repeatedly bent without fracturing, are on ledges on top of the opposite edge from the lead-in notch (10). An untied, shortened necktie (30) is threaded through a false knot (24) and then threaded through the tie slot (26) at the top of the device. This allows the necktie to be joined to the Tiekeeper (28) device. This necktie device slides over the top shirt button by way of the lead-in notch and button passage before resting in the cove on top of the threads of the shirt's top button. Other embodiments are described and shown.
