content: About a week before the chorus I was a part of was to perform portions of the Messiah for Palm Sunday, one of the directors informs us that we are to wear a black bow tie. I heard from others in the chorus that they drove all over town and couldn't find a bow tie. No surprise, I mean, who wears these things anymore? Unless you're getting one with a tux, a standalone bow tie isn't something you're gonna find at Walmart. So this was helpful because the bow tie was just what I needed, and I needed it in short notice and it came very quickly. Also it was cheap, and it wouldn't be nice to pay a lot for something I needed once. It was also very easy to put on; I'm a person that needs to look at a series of diagrams every time I need to tie a normal tie, so anyone can use this product.The only con is that when you buy it Amazon will recommend Child Abraham Lincoln costumes and Black Plastic Canes, and of course more bow ties, as if you needed more than one, when you go to the main page.
