    Handkerchiefs and Pocket Squares

    I prefer a pocket square of at least 16" . an 18" square is ideal. apart from dinner jackets, which I use a white flat fold,I just use the pick up and stuff method.

    I'm thinking of getting an Akubra fedora from everything Australian. Most likely in carbon grey. Just a shame its a 10 week wait.

    Italian made pocket squares - a source!

    The only thing I've noticed, and its a personal thing to me, is the size of the squares, most of the silk are approx. 33cm and have machine rolled hems. I prefer hand rolled and minimum 42 to 46 cm. I find it fills the pocket better. that said I think the site has some great advice.

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    I sometimes get 'looks' but most people either don't look/notice or don't care! the only compliments when wearing a hat (fedora or straw) are nice ones here is a photo showing sir Ian Mckellen and Sir Patrick Stewart to me Ian Mckellen would get the least notice
