    Another great video! Thank's for all the good tips. I have a small trick for avoiding the smallest silk pocket squares to slide down the pocket. I simply stick a small thin piece of paper, like tissue or kitchen paper in the bottom of the pocket and flatten it so it has the same bulk as the pocket square. Works like a charm every time, can be found just about anywhere and no one will ever know its there!

    Watching this in 2018 and wow you improve so much in 4 years. The presentation, the quality audio, the confidence and the style....(not that you were not good in 2014). There are so may men in Vietnam these days pursuit for classic style but actually they aims to the Korean style which has feminine color suits, small lapel, skinny pants with ankle length pair sneakers. I really learn a lot from you. God bless.

    I bought a silk maroon pocket square yesterday (hand rolled edges) from a thrift store because I found it in a suit jacket. The cashier kept calling it a scarf...what a sad world we live in haha. Anyway, I got it for less than 2 dollars. Thanks to this video I've got 5 lovely folds to choose from! I used the crown fold today. I loved it. Thank you!

    That tie you are wearing was my favorite tie about 31 years ago when I was 17 years old. It was my favorite back then. I went looking for it while watching this video but sad to say I couldn’t find it. I probably donated it a long time ago along with my 1990’s suspenders or braces as they were called back then.

    An excellent video, the shell fold was new to me, gotta try that one. I am a regular pocket square user myself and seeing others wearing them always makes me happy. Most of mine are silk but I like to experiment with other materials as well, recently got one in a wool/cashmere mix, nice for the fall season coming up.

    EARLY Sven! (sven 1.0) I like the amateur-hour feel of it...it's honest and sincere. That said, just got my first 2 of your squares yesterday and they are truly splendid! Now to learn a few new ps tricks with my new toys. if you were to return to using the Schumann on the odd video to contrast Lisa Simpson on the Bari, I'd be okay with it. Then again, the first dusky honk on the Ab always let's me know where I am...

    But here you are absolutely German. And to me, that's definitely a good thing. (I am from the South of Denmark, so I've had a lot of contact with Northern and Frisian Germans)

    One of the things I do Sir is I take a bunch of my business cards in the fold of my pocket square to give it a more solid appearance in the form of a crown but I slightly raise it so you can see more than just the corners ... Also if it goes in later, adjusting becomes easier ... Do you think this is a good way or I should learn to better fold it without the cards to give it a more natural look?

      Don Cankook Don Cankook If you have watched his video about colonge, you would know that fancy pocket squares are for the rich to cover their noses whenever they walk on the street. Sanitation in European cities didn't get any improvements until very recently about 130 years ago. In fact, the great stink of London in 1868 was so bad that you could smell it at the Scottish countryside. Back then, the rich would always wear knee high boots to insulate their feet from the muddy city "streets" and hold pocket squares spread with colonge to block away the terrible city smell.
