This man certainly has style and class and truly makes a concious effort to help the interested among us elevate our existence with quality mens goods and how to appreciate and care for them. These are skills we can ALL use and this young man is a master at them. Bravo Mr. Allison. Bravo!
I've become somewhat of a pocket square junkie, I just seem to be always buying them. I also tend to leave the same pocket square in the same jacket but sometimes you have to change it to match the outfit. I believe Winston Churchill always used the puff, I like to use it or the rose, they're really quick and easy to do if your in a hurry to get out the door.
To which I would add: A true Silk pocket square is only about half as big as a standard cotton handkerchief. This so that it doesn’t push out the breast pocket as originally worn. Originally in this case being “as a complimentary accent and not as a formal addition to the ensemble. Thus: Place the pocket square fully opened upon a flat surface. With the first four fingers of the right hand, gather (pinch) the material in the center of the square, lift the square off the surface and allow to hang down. Now turn the hand palm up while continuing to allow the square to hang down. Now thrust the gathered end of the square into the breast pocket all the way to the bottom. Arrange the displayed ends of the square in a pleasing and nonchalant manner and voila! your ensemble is complete." Translated from “The Boulevardier” Henri Ruchard, Paris 1903
I personally like to fold my flat fold so that a triangle sticks out, usually the with of the pocket, sometimes less, what do you think of that variation of the flat fold?
Bespoke suits can be altered quite a lot. This amount of weightloss should be no reason to get a completely new wardrobe but we all know by now that Kirby needs no excuses for new suits. I'd be interested though If Kirby plans to keep this weight.
Kirby Allison overdoing it !!!! Nonsense, however I hereby bestow on you a PhD of pocket square minutiae only to be surpassed by your collection of pocket squares(no doubt numbering in the hundreds to match your 100+ suits and jackets) to suit every occasion! It must be quite a daunting task for you to choose your style for the day? may I suggest an AI program linked to a super computer to facilitate the task.....LOL. Got to luv you Kirby, always fun!
@frankynonos3793 Careful… if you’re too specific, your attempts of sarcastic humor might seem as though they’re revealing first hand knowledge. I’ve never been to a Flying J on I-45 (it actually turns into 75 here in Dallas)… but you seem to…
The restroom obsession is more than a little odd, to say the least. Best just move on and add something constructive to the comments. Whether you like or loathe Kirby, at least he's pursuing his beliefs with conviction.
As my last name is Rose, I feel I need to start using the rose fold from now on! Thanks Kirby
Thank you Kirby. You have helped me elevate my suit jacket to the next level. Such a simple way to enhance my look.
Thank you! It’s the little details that matter
Wonderful video kirby, keep up the good work!

You must flute it, Mr. Lucas!
The corner fold has always been my favorite.
Love the last two !!! Have only used the first and third one .
Finally!! I’m totally lost when it comes to this 😊
Elegant... A lost art in most of today's world.
Тримайтеся, Кірбі!!! Які б випробування не послало вам життя. І дякую вам!!!
Interesting to try with my handkerchief!

Avoid, Looks a bit tacky.
I'm here to go down the rabbit hole.
Hello Kirby, has your weight loss caused you to have to have new bespoke suits tailored for you?

@kirbyallison please delete these crass comments and block/mute the accounts, we don't want to be reading such things on a channel like yours
What do you use a pocket square for?
Culture, style... You might have heard of them?
...........................................👌
Most pocket squares are way too large and end up sticking out of the breast pocket too much, which doesn’t look elegant at all.
Skill issue
Really?
I would’ve wore black are dark blue pants if I were you. Such a great upper look but ruined it with that color
I disagree, if wearing a sports jacket, a lighter trouser than the jacket looks a better balance. The other way round makes you look bottom heavy
@melvincain5012 I agree. The other way round can work but is harder to get right.
