Cufflinks Types

Do you remember being amazed at a man's fashion sense? No? You should be. Class, sophistication, and elegance, elements of style, can all come together with just one small detail - cufflinks.

You don't just leave cufflinks for wedding ceremonies. Paired with nice chinos or an elegant tuxedo, they can look fabulous. To get your money's worth, think about your cufflink purchase and consider the many types of cufflinks available.

Cufflink Varieties Available

Toggle Closures- Bullet Back cufflinks are the most commonly used variety. The backing rotates in between the two sides of the support, creating an easy way to push the cufflink through the button holes. Upon insertion, the backing flips back out to secure the cufflink. This is a must have for everyday use because of the ease at which you can put them on.

Whale Back Cufflink Closures - The "Whale Tail" lays flat against support. The backing secures cufflink to the shirt once it has been placed inside the cuff. These are perfect for meetings or for everyday use.

Fix Backing- These come without flexible parts making them more durable than the whale back closures. With these you have the option of reversible cufflinks as well. The fix backing has been known to be a little trickier to insert but with a little practice you shouldn't have any problems. You can wear these to just about any occasion. These are stylish because the back usually mirrors the design on the front giving you something to look at on both sides of the cuff.

Chain Link- The chain link is the original cufflink style. The chain allows for a loose fit on your wrist while giving you a unique design on both sides of your cuff. This really adds sophistication to your outfit. You will love both the sophisticated and the novel styles that chain link cufflinks come in.

Ball Return- A fixed backing with a ball at the back is what this style is made of. The smooth ball is easy to insert, making this style easy to use than other fixed backing systems. These are perfect for more formal dress occasions giving style and simplicity.

Think about the cufflinks you buy when you are out shopping. Many novel and elegant designs of cufflinks are available these days which will suit your ensemble and your sense of style.
