Drake's squares

[tattersall]

These look so great, but they only sell them in packs of three for 165 GBP a set:

International Man of Mystery Michael Alden is selling the first set in packs of 4 which also includes a rust-colored background square.

I suggest group buys with people divvying up colors they want.

 

[tattersall]

I know - I emailed Michael ages ago, got the confirmation but haven't heard anything since.

I'm down for a Moghul in green with purple border if there are takers for the other colours. I'll place the order and do the shipping if there's interest.

For that, you'll need to find two other persons who would want to wear these squares. Challenging

Will @ asuitablewardrobe has some, and he will have them for sale, individually, at 90 bucks a pop. At the very least I know he has the bird one. I am stoked for mine to arrive, they look gorgeous.

The internet is a weird place.
If Kaxixi hadn't graduated he could do another dissertation on the effectiveness of various distribution models for tapestry-based pocket squares, testing for different currency, pattern and color bundling schemes.

What confuses me is that I believe that you need more than three hankies to tie up one those knotted kama sutra ropes.

Nine would be a more sensible minimum order of the same hanky in different colorways.

Okay -

I'll take the green with purple border
RJ will take the purple with orange border
If anyone wants to buy the brown with blue border, let me know.

Buy the brown square. Do it for the alma mater. Give it the ol college try. Go in with us on this.

BTW, if anyone cares, H&K Paris sells the bird one in a 30 x 30 inch ladies' silk scarf. Different color scheme though.

These are really nice.

I'm thinking of the blue bird one, actually--but I'll give it some more thought.

So, who exactly makes these?

I was wondering the same thing. I was lucky enough to get the rust one from Will
