Reasons For Use
- Tightly tied standard neckties may be a source of irritation and discomfort.
- Some people either do not know how to tie, or do not feel comfortable tying, a standard necktie, and some with disabilities may not be able to.
- Police officers and security guards often wear clip-ons as a precaution against being strangled by a pulled necktie. (With uniform, a tie clip may be used to keep the tie from "flying" in the wind.) A clip-on tie is part of the uniform of the JCB Academy for industrial safety reasons.
- Some schools require clip-on ties as part of their uniform instead of regular ties as this keeps students from loosening them in hot weather.
- A clip-on tie can be put on more quickly than a conventional necktie.

Famous quotes containing the words reasons for and/or reasons:
“The more one analyses people, the more all reasons for analysis disappear. Sooner or later one comes to that dreadful universal thing called human nature.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“Write to the point: say immediately what you want to say most, even if it doesn’t “come first.” There are three reasons for doing this. First, you will then have said it, even if nothing else gets said. Second, your readers will then have read it, even if they read no more. Third, having said it, you are likely to have to say something more, because you will have to explain and justify what you chose to say.”
—Bill Stott (b. 1940)
