THE BOLO TIE: WESTERN.
AND WAY MORE THAN WESTERN.
Texas, New Mexico and Arizona all claim the bolo tie as their own,
but since we're born-and-raised in Arizona...
we'll tell it like this:
legend has it that a cowboy from Wickenburg, AZ looped a hat band around his neck & called it a tie.
Now it is the Official State Neckwear of Arizona, admissible as formalwear from the courtroom to the steakhouse.
But that was then.
Now, bolo ties have moved beyond the cowboy niche, embraced by people of all genders as centerpieces of iconic looks.
Classic Western? Absolutely.
But also stunning with everything from tank tops to bespoke suits – just ask Beyoncé and Shaboozey.
YES THAT IS SHABOOZEY IN CUSTOM HELIOTROPE.
STILL DREAMING OF BEYONCÉ…
And yes, you too are cool enough to rock one –
they even look good worn over t-shirts, pulled lower like necklaces. Bolo ties make amazing wedding gifts for your groomsmen and bridesmaids: Heliotrope has a wide variety of designs and can ship a group order with each tie in giftable, ribboned-wrapped boxes. Metal jewelry should be high-quality and hand-poured by the artist, not pumped out in some overseas factory then marked up for cheap sale online. Heliotrope has truly timeless treasures on offer, each one crafted with care in the heart of the Sonoran Desert in Tucson, Arizona.
There's a reason Heliotrope's Spring Winders gets called "The Bolo Queen of the West:"
