The sheathing of the clip holder with materials is required particularly in the fashion sector. In this case, a tubular material is separated transversely to the longitudinal direction up to the centre. The two parts are now folded together about the linked part of the sheathing in such a way that the two ends of the clip holder are introduced into the outwardly disposed openings of the sheathing until they have entered completely. The sheathed clip holder can now be attached to the neck-tie.
