Abstract
A cleaning cloth wiper for glass lenses that is permanently attached to the back of each of the ends of a necktie, thereby providing the eyeglass wearing professional an immediately available means of cleaning one's glass lenses. The cleaning cloth material (18A, 18B) is attached on the back side of the ends (12, 14) of the outer shell (10) fabric, which comprises the main portion of, and is cut in the shape of, a standard necktie. The lateral edges of the outer shell (10) are then folded around the interlining (16) of the necktie and attached to form a seam traversing the length of the back of the necktie. By the manner of attachment to the back of the necktie, the wipers become outwardly concealed when the necktie is worn, so that the necktie maintains its traditional appearance.
