Noodles said the same thing about a grey flannel I've worn about 10 times over 10 months… because every time I wear it, I post.

Pet peeve time. I find pocket squares with neat patterns less interesting to begin with, and harder to find a use for though I have a couple, but my meh turns into a resounding nah when a TV fold is used. Not to pick on merick or SYCSYC specifically - just the fastest recent examples. In my mind, if you're going to wear one, you need to crumple-roll-twirl-scrunch-whatever it a bit - like Victor did - so the patter crashes together and gives a bit more visual interest.

@jcmeyer don't freak out but this specific "PS" is a folded tie actually. Hence the somehow ugly TV-like fold.

good

While I'm not crazy about the look of belt loops without a belt, lets not forget that the only time anyone will see them is when you're seated, since all other times the jacket will be buttoned (I assume).


Of course, the other option is a three piece. What happens under the vest stays under the vest ...

Cheers,

I don't wear my jacket around the office much, so .. My pref is belt loops for odd trews, side adjusters for suits.

My humble effort on a casual-ish Friday. (Edit: The cords are brown, btw)

Don't be humble. These are awsm! As nice as anything of yours I've seen. Got the Warhol (or is it 'Jobs'?) down perfectly in the lower pic too.


Sugarbutch, Six-y, Chocosa and others - loving it
