Wool Challis Pocket Square in Orange with Green Polka Dots - Fort Belvedere

Pocket squares are one of the easiest and quickest ways to improve the overall look of your outfit, but it all depends on the elegance, timelessness, and versatility of the pocket square: not
all are created equal! While most pocket squares are made from cheap synthetics in simple colors or garish designs.

Fort Belvedere is proud to offer a range of different materials in silk, wool, or blends thereof. And while other pocket squares have their hems finished by machines, all of our pocket squares are meticulously hand-rolled, with the embroidery work done by hand.

Most significantly, nearly all other pocket squares are too small because they are simply cut to get the biggest yield from the piece of fabric it is made off. At Fort Belvedere we determine the
size of each square by the specific fabric used so you end up with the perfectly sized pocket square that will neither disappear in your chest pocket nor create any bulk.

A pocket square cannot improve your look if it vanishes into your pocket or spoils the lines of your jacket, after all!

When it comes to creating visual interest through texture contrast, few options surpass the pairing of a stately wool pocket square with a refined silk tie. After building up a collection of classic linen and silk pocket squares, wool varieties are the ideal way to expand your wardrobe with an unexpected twist.

Wool pocket squares, thanks to their unexpected texture and stately drape, are an exceptional way to upgrade your outfit in an unexpected way, as wool accessories are relatively rare in contemporary menswear, and serve, therefore, as a marker of finesse, taste, and a firm grasp of the conventions of Classic Style.

Perfectly Polka-Dotted. Once one of the most common patterns in Classic Menswear, polka dots have been abandoned in favor of chasing modern trends, but you can revive this timeless and stylish look, thanks to Fort Belvedere. Polka dots allow for the easy introduction of multiple colors into your look, and the attentive printing methods employed by your craftsmen ensure a vibrant, consistent, and beautiful color palette, every time

Fine Wrinkle-Resistant Merino Wool. The Merino breed of sheep offers up wool that is finer and softer than that of any other sheep, so, of course, it was the only option for Fort Belvedere’s line of wool pocket squares. Wool is renowned for being extremely wrinkle-resistant, and as such this pocket square provides a beautiful, crisp drape that is perfect for more unusual and dramatic pocket square folds. 

Utilizing unique and interesting folds imparts greater versatility, as well as debonair elegance, to your pocket square. Ensuring that your folds appear natural and unaffected will not only look more charming and nonchalant, but it will also be evident to others that you are not wearing a cheap, pre-folded pocket square.

To help you look the part of a timeless Classic gentleman, we created a video that details with simple instructions how you can fold eight of our favorite pocket square folds.
