Aside from our own Kent Wang, any thoughts? I think it's time I developed more of a collection.

Thanks.

Clearly, there are no viable alternatives!

Check out www.thetiebar.com I can't vouch for the quality (just because I haven't ordered from them yet), but the price is great and you get a choice of small or large. Small is 10.5 X 10.5 which is perfect for me. I really dislike trying to get a 17 X 17 pocket square into my pocket without a bulge.

wow thanks for that link...$5 for solid and $8 for patterned SILK pocket squares? i'll have to check it out. KW is my boy even though i haven't tried any of his wonderful creations...but is his stuff really worth 4 times the price?

can we please have some pocket square snobs come and give analysis on how crucial the quality and construction are in meticulously engineered proper pocket squares? because you know a purple label pocket square will last you a lifetime compare to those inferior pocket squares from say a place like thetiebar.com

The edge stitching on some of those look horrible. If all you want to wear is a puff fold, then it is a good deal.

Just want to give you guys a heads up, if you're still looking for pocket squares check here in the B&S forum next weekend as I just got in over 150 NWT Polo Ralph Lauren and Purple Label pocket squares which I'll be listing here... I just don't have time atm to take pictures of all of them. As always I'll be offering good prices and discounts for multiple purchases.

I have a pocket square from Sam Hober that I enjoy very much. His selection of fabrics is very unique.

Quality and construction are only crucial if you love beautiful clothes that will last a long time. If you do not enjoy hand-rolled edges than you can look around for machine hedged pocket squares for around $2 and be very happy. Chinese made pocket squares tend to over time unravel and the silks can be nice but not unique or extraordinary. They are fine for $7 or so. Kent Wang makes his pocket squares in Texas and has great service as well as a good eye for silk. I think that his prices are more than worth it. His vintage Japanese Kimono silks are very special.

I posted this on another thread asking for online P.S. stores, but thought I'd repost here.

Customshirt.com has a selection of Seward & Stearns pocket squares: http://www.customshirt1.com/SS_PocketSquares_701_01.htm

Though the "1" in their address made me skeptical at first, I've ordered two squares from them with no problems. S&S make top-quality squares, UHO.
