These ties are wonderful! Bought 3 for my 5-year-old son because he loves wearing ties but was outgrowing his old toddler clip-on ties. These will probably last him for the next 3 years or so, size-wise (he's a tall kid).

The zipper mechanism is unique and works very well. The fabric has a very nice feel to it, and the ties look good. Sometimes, the fabric around the zipper gets stuck in the zipper, and that's probably my only complaint about the product. When my son used the red tie for the first time, the zipper got stuck when I was showing it off to the family. One of the kids tried to pull it to dislodge it, and the plastic piece that holds the zipper in place broke, making the tie unusable. The good news: the company promptly replaced the red tie (customer service was PHENOMENAL).

All in all, I recommend these ties as they look, feel & work great. Just be careful not to pull too hard if the zipper gets stuck.
