Scarves and stoles, which add a touch of elegance to the neckline with just one wrap, are accessories that greatly influence the overall impression of a men's outfit. Their lightness, distinct from traditional winter scarves, is appealing, and by choosing the right material and size for the season, they can be worn throughout spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
However, many people may be wondering, "What length and how should I tie it to look good?" Therefore, this time, we've selected men's scarves and stoles in three sizes—large, medium, and small—and will introduce different ways to tie each size. The impression of your styling changes greatly depending on the size and shape, as well as the color, pattern, and material. We hope you find the perfect scarf and tying method to suit your own style.

【Long Size】A large stole adds a touch of light elegance to your neckline.

Men's stoles are versatile accessories that can be worn with outerwear and coats from the lingering chill of winter through spring and into early autumn. Bright colors are key in spring, while muted hues are essential for creating stylish outfits. Sophisticated designs, such as gradient colors and patterns combining two types of checks, are also appealing. A longer stole like this is perfect for creating a light and breezy look when loosely wrapped.

The key to a large stole is a light, effortless look.

① First, drape the stole around your neck. The key here is to adjust it so that the left side is longer and the right side is shorter. This will make it easier to tie a knot later.

②Tie the longer end on the left once to create a loop. Don't tie the knot too tightly; leave some slack with your left hand to make the next step easier.

③ Insert the right end into the left loop, leaving some room. Adjust the depth to your liking and stop when it looks balanced.

④ Finally, adjust the length and shape by gently pulling on both ends. Pulling on the right end adjusts the length, while pulling on the left end adjusts the volume of the knot.

[Medium Size] A scarf that can be used all year round. Suitable for both casual and jacket styles.

This cotton and linen scarf has a smooth, comfortable feel and is perfect for summer. Pair it with casual tops like an overshirt for a sophisticated weekend look. Its size, approximately 65 x 65 cm, is just right – not too big, so it makes a nice statement even when peeking out from under a jacket or shirt.

For medium-sized scarves, a simple knot is the basic choice.

① With the right side of the scarf facing down, fold the top and bottom edges towards the center.


② Fold the top third and bottom third towards the center.

③ Fold it in half, bringing both sides together. Now it's ready to wrap around your neck!


④ Place the folded scarf around your neck. The key is to make sure the folded side of the scarf is facing downwards when it touches your neck.


⑤ Tie a knot once at the neck. The knot should be placed around the top button of the shirt, making sure that the space around the neck is not too narrow.


⑥ Take the end that was on top after the first knot and tie the second knot over it again. Tie it tightly to remove any looseness, and both ends will hang down neatly.

[Narrow Size] Enjoy the lightness of silk around your neck. This piece creates a clean and sophisticated look.

Also noteworthy is this tie-style men's scarf made from a double layer of thinly woven chiffon silk fabric. Its key feature is that it doesn't add too much volume around the neck, resulting in a light and airy finish. The subdued sheen makes it a perfect match for casual tops. Its compact 10cm width makes it easy to wrap around the neck of crew necks or t-shirts.

A narrow scarf can be tied simply in a knot.

① The narrow type is inherently smart, so no complicated folding is necessary. Simply fold it lightly in half to even out the width.

② Let it hang straight down from your neck so that both sides are the same length.


③ To prevent the neckline from becoming too loose, tie a knot once. The knot should be slightly below the throat.


④ Tie another knot to finish. Tightening the knot slightly will make it more compact and neat, even if it's done haphazardly.
