Default Re: What is the current fashion in men\'s tie knots?

OK then, why is spread the new hotness and straight old and busted?

The straight collar is meant to be more formal and less conspicuous than the spread which is a more elegant, carefree look. The spread collar also looks far better without a tie.

FWIW I use the four-in-hand knot exclusively, using a thicker tie if I'm looking for a bigger knot.
