Message definition (AY Honors/Neckwear/Answer Key)

</noinclude>

This is a type of necktie consisting of a piece of cord or braided leather with decorative metal tips (called aiguillettes) and secured with an ornamental clasp or slide. Bolo ties are widely associated with Western wear and are generally most common in the western areas of the United States. Bolo tie slides and tips in silver have been part of Hopi, Navajo, Zuni and Puebloan silversmithing traditions since the mid-20th century. Victor Cedarstaff claims to have invented the bolo tie in the late 1940s and later patented his slide design. It is reported that Victor was riding his horse one day where his cowboy hat blew off. Fearful of losing the silver-trimmed hatband, he slipped it around his neck and his companion joked, "That's a nice-looking tie you're wearing, Vic." The bolo tie has been adopted as the official necktie of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.
