Best bow ties in Charleston, Mount Pleasant and Savannah shops

Twelve bow ties in stock at local shops, from Charleston-made feather bow ties at $225 to a $42 black silk tie and a $16 Rainbow Row bow tie for a dog collar, with the shirts and pocket squares that go with them.

Every bow tie here was in stock at a local shop on October 28, 2026, and every price was read from the shop's own product page that day. Seven are Brackish feather bow ties, handcrafted in Charleston from pheasant, guinea, rooster, goose and peacock feathers. The rest are silk and velvet ties from $29.98 to $128, and one is for a dog.

All twelve are in the Lowcountry Magazine store, where a purchase goes through to the shop.

Feather Bow Ties

Brackish bow ties come pre-tied, on an adjustable band with a hook closure, and measure 2.5 inches tall by 4.5 inches wide. Because each one is laid by hand from natural feathers, no two are exactly alike. Grady Ervin & Co, at 313 King Street, carries the widest range in the store. M. Dumas & Sons, a Charleston shop since 1917 at 294 King Street, and Rhodes Home & Gift on Folly Road carry others.

Dunbar, Grady Ervin & Co

Dunbar bow tie in slate-blue pheasant feathers with a black center wrap.

Slate-blue pheasant feathers in overlapping scallops, wrapped at the center in black grosgrain. The shop's listing calls it one of the best-selling designs. Fits necks from 11 to 20 inches.
