Handrolled 15 x 15 Linen Pocket Square Hanky

Pocket squares, a subtle yet impactful accessory, have long been a staple in the world of men's fashion. Jacob Alexander, a brand that opened its doors in 2015, has blossomed into a full-scale operation of custom private label manufacturing, producing robust lines of men's accessories for all types of customers.

A pocket square is a square cloth that fits snugly in the breast pocket of your jacket, providing a stylish hint of fabric peeking out to increase visual appeal. It serves as a low-effort, subtle way to upgrade your outfit from "Typical" to "Different".

When choosing a pocket square, there are a few guidelines to consider. Opt for a secondary color from your shirt or tie as the primary color for your pocket square, and avoid overdoing the patterns - ensure some articles of clothing are flat colors which will accentuate the colors in your pocket square or tie. Additionally, match your fold to the occasion. As for white pocket squares, the rules are simple: they work with every jacket and tie combination and color.

There are several ways to fold a pocket square, each with its own unique appeal. The Square Fold, also known as the presidential fold or TV fold, is the ultimate classic and should be your choice for a black-tie event. The Triangle Fold, or one-point fold, can add a touch of visual interest and contrast to your look. The Stairs Fold, a more challenging option, can create a striking result. The Puff Fold is a versatile and easy choice, suitable for both casual and formal wear. Lastly, the Winged Puff fold looks great with most fabric choices and can be appropriate for both day and evening wear.

Pocket square designs also offer a range of options to suit your style. Solid colors provide a classy, conservative look, perfect for business outfits and formal events. Small repeating prints offer versatility, while large repeating prints are typically best suited for casual suit wear. Non-repeating prints cover a wide range of possibilities, often working best for casual attire. Paisley patterns are well-respected in formal menswear, adding a touch of complexity, while floral patterns can bring a touch of elegance to your ensemble.

Jacob Alexander offers a variety of pocket square options, including linen handrolled squares, pre-folded triangles, solid colors with embroidered edges, plaid designs, and woven double stripes. With a range of styles and materials, Jacob Alexander provides the discerning gentleman with the perfect pocket square to elevate their look, whether for a formal occasion or a casual day.
