Any guys here wear collar pins?

This is a question for the guys here who wear ties. I am talking about the collar pins that go on your shirt collar and bump up your tie.

[chicadam]

yes... but not often.
Only on special occasions. You look straight out of the godfather.

No because I don't like how it looks.

I think it looks quite sharp! Maybe the difficulty with wearing collar pins is that it's hard to find the right shirt collar? Or maybe the pins poke holes in the collar?

It actually looks really good... This simple addition changes your entire look.

Make sure your collar does not spread to wide and the knot is a good size.

There are collar pins that do not pierce the collar but grabs on instead.

I read that cheap clips can come loose over time, or they may become positioned crooked.

Anyways, I think it is cool that hardly anyone wears them, by the looks of things. It is a subtle way to stand out from the pack!
