Uniforms Garments: Ties--Attitudes


Figure 1.--This boy has loosed his collar and tie at the evening. e note that many boys become so used to wearing ties that they do not bother to do this, even at the end of the day. Some schools didn't allowed this, but usually at the end of the day no one said anything. 

British boys like boys in other European countries no longer wear ties like they used, even when dressing up. The one exception is school uniform. British boys, especially boys at boarding school become very used to wearing ties. Boys get so used to wearing ties that they often wear them without even loosening them in the evening. Some schools allow the boys to take their ties off after classes others do not. We often note boys wearing ties tightly pulled up to the neck right until they begin getting ready for bed. This is especially true of the younger boys. We do note some older boys who are looesing their ties by the end of the day. This is not, however, as common as one might think.
