Frequently Asked Questions About Stock Ties

How long is a stock tie?

There is no set length for a stock tie. Instead, it should be long enough to reach from the base of your neck to the center of your chest, with a little bit of excess fabric that can be tucked into your shirt. This will ensure the tie stays securely, even during an energetic ride.

Do hunters wear stock ties?

Show hunter riders wear stock ties for specific important classes that offer greater prize money, such as derbies and classics. A stock tie originated from the fox hunting tradition, and they still use stock ties today. The classes that hold more importance in hunter shows try to emulate the long-standing tradition.

How do you fasten a stock tie?

Here are a few tips to help you fold a stock tie. First, fold the tie in half lengthwise to find the center. Next, drape the tie over your neck so that the center lies at the base of the neck and the two halves hang down evenly. Then, take each half of the tie and cross it over the other, tucking the ends underneath. Finally, pull everything tight and secure it with a pin or brooch. If you're looking for an easier solution, pre-tied stock ties are fastened by velcroing them around your neck.
