Most Lodges are coat-and-tie; some are black-tie for stated meetings; a few are open-collar and proud of it. When in doubt, overdress once and then match the room. Officer nights and installations raise the bar everywhere.
AMITER Woven Necktie for Freemason, Mens Fashion Neck Ties with Masonic…
For Lodges that expect a dark suit and tie, this puts the working tools on the tie itself rather than on a pin. Woven pattern, not a print, so it survives a dry-clean cycle better than most novelty ties.
Solid ratings across 117 reviews for a tie that probably sees most of its wear on lodge nights. Check your own lodge's dress expectations before assuming a tie alone covers the requirement.
Masonic Neck Tie - Navy Blue Polyester Long tie Compass & Square - Slanted…
Polyester, so it reads better on a Lodge night than a formal occasion where silk would be expected. Navy is versatile and compatible with most Lodge dress codes, though check your own Lodge's requirements.
Masonic Regalia Craft Masons Neck knitted Woven Silk Tie with square and…
Woven silk is the appropriate choice for formal Lodge wear; the Square and Compass emblem makes it Lodge-specific rather than general formal attire. Five stars from nineteen reviews is not much to go on for fit and finish.
Masonic Regalia Craft Masons Neck knitted Woven Silk Tie with square and…
Thin data on this one. The listing says woven silk and the rating is strong, but verify the weight and pattern against your Lodge's dress standards before ordering.
Twenty-nine reviews is a thin sample, so the 4.9 reflects early buyers rather than a settled consensus. The dark silver colorway suits formal dress nights; confirm your Lodge's tie expectations before wearing it to a stated meeting.
A straightforward Lodge night tie with the square and compass. The listing gives no material or care information, so check the detail page if fiber content matters to you.
Masonic Symbol Bolo Tie Freemason Square and Compass Necktie
A bolo reads as casual or regional depending on the room, so check your Lodge's dress expectations before wearing it to a stated meeting. Works well as an everyday piece outside Lodge.

Bow ties
For black-tie Lodges and installation nights. Self-tie and pre-tied.
100% Silk Mens Bowtie Self Tie Bow Tie Bowtie Tuxedo Wedding Solid Color…
Self-tie is the traditional choice and holds a knot better through a long evening than pre-tied. Check what your degree team or Lodge actually wears before committing to a color.
Alizeal Mens Solid Self Bow Tie Jacquard Woven Bowtie
Self-tie, not pre-tied — if you cannot tie a bow tie, this is not the one to learn on at five minutes to Lodge. The solid color keeps it versatile past formal nights.
DiBanGu Satin Bow tie Self-Tied Bowtie Set for Men Wedding Prom
Satin is more formal than matte weaves but shows every crease, so pack it flat. The set includes accessories most Masons won't use; the tie itself is the reason to buy it.
MAGE MALE Men's 2 Pieces Tuxedo Suit Slim Fit Blazer Pants Sets
Tuxedo styling suits Installation nights, degree conferrals, or any event that calls for formal dress. Check what your Lodge actually requires; some treat dark suit and tuxedo as interchangeable, others do not.
Embroidered Freemason Baseball Cap for Men and Women, 100% Cotton Adjustable…
Casual, everyday wear — not Lodge attire. The 100% cotton construction and adjustable fit make it a practical option for outdoor events or informal gatherings where dress code is relaxed.
Flexfit Cap Mason Gray Thread Large XLarge Black Design Only Masonic Hats
The structured Flexfit build holds its shape better than the unstructured alternatives. Gray thread on black reads cleaner than the standard gold embroidery for casual wear.
Freemason Embroidered Black Adjustable Hat Mason Masonic Lodge Baseball Cap
Casual wear, not Lodge wear. The adjustable fit and strong review count suggest it holds up; the embroidery on a ball cap is about as understated as this format gets.
Gold Square & Compass Embroidered Masonic Men's Polo Shirt
An embroidered polo for casual lodge events, degree nights, or public-facing activities where the emblem should be visible but formal regalia is not appropriate. Useful as a gift if you know the recipient's size.
Iron-on at three inches reads clearly on a jacket or bag. Cotton embroidery survives washing better than heat-transfer, but the iron-on adhesive can lift at the edges with repeated washing — a few stitches around the perimeter will keep it flat.
Masonic Black American Flag Patch Embroidered Iron-On Freemason Square Compass
The black subdued flag treatment reads less conspicuously than a bright emblem, which some Brothers prefer for everyday wear. Iron-on holds well on most fabrics, but sewing the edges extends the life on gear that takes heavy use.
Masonic Logo Large Patch Embroidered Iron-On Freemason Emblem Square Compass
Ten inches wide, so check the garment before you commit: this reads as a statement on a jacket back, not an accent. Iron-on adhesive holds well on flat fabric but sew it down on anything that flexes at the shoulder.
Iron-on application holds for casual wear on a jacket or bag, but will loosen under repeated washing without additional stitching around the edge. The 3-inch size reads clearly at arm's length.
York Rite of Freemasonry Round Embroidered Masonic Patch - [Multicolored][3''…
Iron-on at three inches — a workable size for a jacket, tote, or regalia bag. The York Rite emblem is specific; it belongs on gear belonging to a York Rite member.
The 32° embroidery marks this as Scottish Rite attire, so it is for members who have received that degree, not simply any Master Mason. Useful for Valley functions or informal events where lodge dress is not required.
32nd Degree SMJ Scottish Rite Masonic Ceremonial Hat
For 32nd Degree Scottish Rite Masons only. The SMJ designation refers to the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction; confirm your Valley's requirements before purchasing.
This is a carry case for a Shriner fez, not the fez itself. The machine-embroidered emblem on the exterior makes the contents obvious without opening it.
A dark suit, white shirt and a conservative tie is correct in any Lodge on any night. Some Lodges are black-tie for stated meetings, and installations raise the bar almost everywhere. Ask the Secretary before your first visit, and see what to wear to Lodge for the occasion-by-occasion detail.
Masonic ties and bow ties
A square and compasses tie is a normal thing to wear to Lodge and a safe gift. Some Lodges and Grand Lodges have their own official tie; if yours does, that is the one to wear on formal nights. Check the width and length on the listing, and whether a bow tie is self-tie or pre-tied.
The fez and the Scottish Rite cap
The Shrine fez carries the name of the wearer’s Shrine and is worn by Nobles; a plain fez sold as a costume is not the same object. Scottish Rite caps are worn by members of the Valley, under the Valley’s rules. See the fez and the Shrine explained.
Frequently asked questions
What should I wear to my first Masonic Lodge meeting?
A dark suit, white shirt and conservative tie. It is never wrong, and you can match the room after the first night. Ask the Lodge Secretary if you are unsure.
Can anyone wear a Shriners fez?
No. The fez is worn by Nobles of Shriners International, who must first be Master Masons. See the Shrine explained.
Is there an official Masonic tie?
Not one for all of Freemasonry. Some Grand Lodges and Lodges have their own tie; a square and compasses tie is a normal choice everywhere else.
Customs differ between Grand Lodges and between the appendant bodies. Your Lodge Secretary is the authority for your jurisdiction. We do not sell or ship anything: catalog links go to Amazon, where current details live.
