F.A.Qs

Most Pocket Squares are made from cheap material and are stitched by machines. Our “Pochettes” are unique and we use the finest material. Here is how to recognize a hight quality Pocket Square:

Fabric quality. Pocket squares come in a variety of fabrics, most commonly silk, linen, or cotton. Sometimes, you’ll find guys who want to be a little more unusual and will use thicker fabrics like wool –but generally this should only be done in fall or winter weather. Whatever fabric you choose, make sure it doesn’t look cheap and that it doesn’t wrinkle easily. If it looks like it has small tears or has already caught on something simply while on display, that’s a red flag.

Edges.  If you’re ever in a situation where someone tries to sell you a pocket square that’s just a cut of fabric with unfinished edges, WALK AWAY. Not only is that going to look sloppy and weird in your pocket; it probably means the entire piece of fabric will gradually unravel.

Staying power.  When it comes to pocket squares, size matters. Smaller ones can slip and shift in your pocket, meaning that by the end of the day they’re coming unfolded or have completely disappeared from view. Although there are exceptions, generally, you want to try for the standard size (usually about 12×12 to15x15 inches (30.5 x30.5 cm to 38×38 cm)) or even one that’s slightly bigger.
