Abstract

A preknotted adjustable necktie comprises a knot former having, an inner body (62) and an outer body (61), an inner tie member with a zipper (3), an outer tie member (5), and a rivet (63). The knot former serves forming and control functions, and the inner tie member is sandwiched between the inner and outer bodies thereof, with a pulling button of the zipper slider on the inner tie member secured to the inner and outer bodies of the knot former and to the outer tie member by a rivet. The outer tie member is tied into a fixed knot over the knot former. By means of the presence of a pair of leaf springs (622) on the inner body, the position of the tie knot and the zipper slider can be adjusted freely and retained in the position set.
