Learn three easy ways to wear the Texas A&M Gig 'Em Aggies bandana on game day, from classic neck ties to dog-friendly styling.

Quick answer

Style your Texas A&M Gig 'Em Aggies bandana three ways: as a classic neck tie, a wrist wrap, or a dog bandana. Each method takes under a minute and keeps your Aggie spirit front and center.

Why the fabric matters for styling

The Texas A&M Gig 'Em Aggies Collegiate Bandana uses moisture-wicking, quick-drying fabric with four-way stretch. That means it won't sag or lose its shape after you tie it, and it dries fast if you get caught in rain or sweat through a game. The stretch also makes it easier to get a snug fit without wrestling with stiff cotton.

When to skip the neck tie

If you're wearing a high-collar polo or a jacket that already covers your neck, a neck tie can feel bulky. In that case, go with the wrist wrap instead — it still shows the burgundy and white without competing with your collar.

Three ways to wear your Gig 'Em bandana

Classic neck tie: Fold the bandana diagonally into a triangle. Place the long edge at the back of your neck, bring the two ends to the front, and tie a double knot at your collarbone. Tuck the knot under your collar for a cleaner look. Avoid tying too tight — the four-way stretch means a loose knot stays put without choking.
Wrist wrap: Fold the bandana into a long strip about 2 inches wide. Wrap it around your wrist twice, then tie a small knot on the outside of your wrist. Let the excess fabric hang for a casual tail. Make sure the knot is on the outer wrist so it doesn't dig into your palm when you hold a drink or wave.
Dog bandana: Fold the bandana into a triangle, then roll the long edge once. Place it around your dog's neck with the point facing down, and tie a simple knot behind the ears. Adjust so two fingers fit between the bandana and the neck. The quick-drying fabric is great if your dog jumps in water — it won't stay soggy against their fur.
