Product Insights
The Le 31 Crest Pendant Necklace, a Simons-exclusive Canadian-designed piece, is available in stock at $29—Le 31's most common price tier where choice is by design not cost. The necklace features a 21-inch adjustable chain (19-23 inches) for collarbone or below wear, topped with a symbol-heavy pendant (cross, dice, pegasus) from a rotating emblematic series positioning the crest as a fashion micro-trend rather than a classic. At $29, it undercuts custom crests by 5x yet costs more than basic stainless steel, straddling mass-market and custom alternatives. A key tradeoff: the pendant's nickel content may cause skin reactions for allergy sufferers, as warned.

Deep Research
What to know about the Le 31 brand
- As a Simons-exclusive brand designed in Canada, Le 31 bypasses third-party brand markups and channels the retailer's own fashion direction, giving buyers direct access to department-store trend curation at a $29 price point that would be difficult to achieve from an independent designer.
- The Le 31 men's necklace assortment ranges from a $19 CAD cross pendant to a $59 XL shell, with the crest pendant sitting at the most common $29 tier — a price band that signals fashion-accessory rotation rather than long-term investment, so the crest functions best as a seasonal trend piece.
- Alongside the crest, the line's pendant themes include crosses, lions, pegasus, dice, and minimal shapes — a rapid-iteration, graphic-heavy approach that suggests Le 31 is designed to capture micro-trends in men's accessories, making the crest a low-stakes way to add an emblematic detail to a look.
Nickel jewelry care and how it holds up
- Pure nickel does not rust; instead, it may develop a slight tarnish from atmospheric sulfur compounds over years — a thin, cosmetic film that can be wiped off with a mild abrasive, meaning the necklace won't degrade structurally and can be restored to its original look with simple polishing.
- Nickel forms a thin, dense layer of nickel oxide (NiO) just 2–5 nanometers thick when exposed to oxygen — if scratched, this layer reforms within seconds, so the pendant continuously self-protects from deeper corrosion even if abraded during wear.
- A paste made from equal parts baking soda and water, gently rubbed with a soft cloth, removes tarnish spots on nickel jewelry — a technique that restores shine without commercial metal polishes that might contain harsh chemicals.
How the 21-inch length fits with the adjustable extender
- The built-in adjustable extender chain, typical of extenders that run 2–3 inches (5–8 cm) in length, turns the fixed 21-inch measurement into a fit range of roughly 19 to 23 inches — letting the wearer fine-tune the pendant’s drop to accommodate different necklines, a larger neck circumference, or just personal preference for a snugger or looser drape.
- At 21 inches (53.5 cm), this chain falls between the standard 20-inch collarbone and 22-inch below-collarbone lengths identified in men's sizing guides, so for most builds it sits right at the collarbone or just below — a versatile everyday position that avoids the tightness of an 18-inch choker and the boldness of a 24-inch statement piece.
How the price compares to similar men's necklaces
- Within Le 31’s own men’s jewelry lineup, the crest pendant at $29 CAD shares its price with multiple other pendant designs (Dice, Pegasus, Star & Ring) while the brand also offers simpler cross pendants at $19 and more ornate shapes like the Gothic Cross and Rectangular pendant at $39, meaning the crest is positioned as a mid-range aesthetic choice where the purchase decision is driven by design taste rather than any cost barrier.
- For a competitive comparison outside the brand, the HNS Studio men’s black square pendant necklace lists at $34.99 (on sale from $39.99) in stainless steel and lets the buyer choose from four chain styles (Box, Figaro, Cuban, Rope) and lengths from 18 to 24 inches, so the $5–$10 step-up buys a skin-friendlier metal, a selection of chain link aesthetics, and full length customization — factors that shift the Le 31 crest into a purchase that favors design identity over material and fit versatility.
- On Amazon, shoppers can routinely find men’s necklace styles in stainless steel or gold-plated stainless steel at lower price points — for instance, a 14K gold-plated stainless steel cuban chain necklace from KRKC&CO drops to $14.84 — which sets a high floor for base-metal value; by asking $29 for a nickel pendant, Le 31 relies on the crest design and its Canadian-exclusive Simons branding to justify the premium over the abundant sub-$25 stainless options.
Crest pendant symbolism and style context
- Custom family crest pendants in sterling silver typically start at $145, while heirloom-quality signets climb higher; this Le 31 pendant delivers the crest shape and its attendant meanings for $29 CAD, making the narrative of heritage accessible without the investment of custom engraving or precious metals.
- Style guides recommend small silver shield pendants as adaptable everyday pieces — worn over a T‑shirt or under a shirt, and easily layered with a cross or chain — which makes this 21‑inch adjustable crest pendant a versatile style anchor for casual, office, or evening looks.
