I found the standard FedEx purple and blue Tie is appropriate for all occasions and within the requirements of the image manual the company has issued.

The bow tie is the best to wear with a polo shirt. Stylish, refined, understated, yet not so gay as to make people think you're gay.

It's not a tie the polo shirt people would have you wear but a leash.

do not, AND I REPEAT, do not wear a tie or bow tie with a polo shirt. they are to be worn with a full button shirt not a three button polo. polo = casual. go with dress shirt. please!!! so to answer the ? what tie to wear w/a polo the answer is none. turtle, cmon were not 21. its not gay its just not appropriate.

Great advice, unless you want to look like the guy in Turtle's picture. A bow tie with a purple polo shirt?? Don't do it!

Yeah. Maybe I was wrong about the whole "not so gay" thing. Purple and teal are tough to get around.
