Once an order is placed, we begin on the cutting table where the bow tie fabric is cut on a bias to give the famous R. Hanauer stretch. Although the bias cut yields less product from each yard of fabric, it makes our bow ties much more flexible and durable for many years of tying and wear. Once the fabric is cut, it is passed to one of our talented seamstresses to be artfully sewn (including a bias-cut lining to preserve shape over time). After our seamstress individually sews each bow tie they are ready to be placed in our signature black box. Next step? The handmade bow tie is shipped out to you for years of gentlemanly enjoyment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: black;\"\u003eOur Dedication to American Made Bow Ties\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: black;\"\u003eAlthough many opt to manufacture their bow ties overseas, we believe in making our bow ties at home.
