Luxury Style - Made In The USA

R. Hanauer began designing and manufacturing bow ties and men's accessories more than 30 years ago. Randy Hanauer, who still owns the company, wanted to bring American men fashionable and interesting accessories that extended beyond the traditional white pocket square and handkerchief. The brand soon found a popular place in the market by producing stylish, high-quality products for men of all ages. This family owned business is dedicated to impeccable standards of manufacturing and crafts each piece by hand in the US. Each and every R. Hanauer bow tie, necktie, cummerbund set or pocket square is handmade in the USA.

The brand blends this local heritage with an international appeal. The luxurious fabrics used in each contemporary designed piece have been sourced from around the world. While R. Hanauer celebrates the pride of local manufacturing and craftsmanship, its pieces are made to rival major international fashion brands. With a bespoke experience at the heart of the company, Randy still selects the fabrics that are used in each hand cut and hand sewn bow tie collection that is made in the Fort Mill workshop.

An Innovative Design

Each R. Hanauer bow tie is unique in the way that it is cut on the bias. This innovative technique gives each product extra strength while also allowing it to hold its shape better in a classic knot. As today's different occasions and tastes call for many different types of bow ties, R. Hanauer offers different bow tie styles to accommodate. Traditionalists will appreciate the classic cut of the Philip or Henry, while those looking for something a bit bolder or cutting edge will go for the Diamond End series and the Stanley and Louie styles. Each bow tie is also available in a pre-tied option to make life easier.

A Perfect Tuxedo Bow Tie

If you have a formal event coming up on your calendar you need the right kind of bow tie to fit the occasion. It's also a good idea to have a tuxedo bow tie in your wardrobe should the opportunity or event ever come up. Events like weddings, balls, galas, charity fundraisers, dances, formal dinners, or garden parties, cotillions, awards ceremonies, and other events often require formal or black tie dress.

To add to the sophisticated vibes of these events, men are usually required to wear a white dress shirt, waistcoat or cummerbund, tuxedo jacket, and dress shoes. Traditional rules often dictate the wearing of a bow tie to these types of events. While a classic black bow tie is still a popular look for a formal event, today's modern world offers more chance for differentiation through different patterns, shapes, and even colors of bow ties.

To elevate your formal look, R. Hanauer offers a wide range of formal bow ties to suit any personality and occasion. In addition to white cotton pique for full dress, we offer 100%  silk tuxedo bow ties in a variety of designs from plaids to polka dots, stripes, houndstooth, paisley, and basketweave. Each design is offered in our six different bow tie cuts for added choice.
