1. Really confused why this is on HN. If I were a mod, I'd remove.

2. From a sartorial standpoint, no one should wear the Eldredge knot, ever. From Reddit:

"I understand that a lot of people think it looks cool, and it'll attract a lot of attention, but not in a good way. You won't be that guy who's really well dressed, you'll be the guy with the funny tie knot."

It's not even well-accepted amongst the likes of styleforum users who are all across the sartorial spectrum. I remember reading a comment once that went more or less like "Use a green tie and it looks like an artichoke".

A windsor / double-windsor / pratt / four-in-hand are perfectly acceptable tie-knots, depending on the tie.
