Product Insights
Le 31's Wild Duck Pocket Square, fully manufactured in Italy and designed in Canada, offers Italian artisan finishing with a 72% cotton and 28% silk blend engineered for crisp folds and a subdued sheen suitable for business and social settings. Priced at $49 CAD versus €80–120 for handmade Neapolitan squares, it holds sharp folds initially and gradually softens with age, enabling a shift from architectural folds to relaxed puffs. However, maintaining its shape and sheen requires dry cleaning, and hand washing may accelerate softening, presenting a care tradeoff for those accustomed to pure cotton squares.
Verified claims
- Fold Holding
- Holds sharp folds initially and softens for relaxed puffs over time.
- Sheen
- The cotton-silk blend has less sheen than pure silk, with the 28% silk adding just enough sheen to read as deliberate.
- Care
- For this cotton-silk blend, dry cleaning is generally recommended, and hand washing in cold water with mild detergent and air drying may be suitable.
- Patina
- Surface smoothness gradually diminishes over time, enabling a shift from crisp to relaxed folds.
- Value
- Italian craftsmanship at $49, versus €80–120 for handmade Neapolitan squares.
- Material blend
- 72% cotton, 28% silk blend engineered for crisp folds and subtle sheen.
- Italian manufacturing
- Fully manufactured in Italy, designed in Canada as part of Le 31 by Simons.
- Fold versatility
- Versatile for both structured folds and relaxed puff styles.
- Manufacturing quality
- Made by Italian artisans with generations-deep textile finishing knowledge.
- Dry cleaning
- Dry cleaning is generally recommended to preserve the fabric and shape.
- Hand washing
- Hand washing in cold water with mild detergent and air drying may be suitable; always test a small area first.
- Stiffness
- The cotton-silk blend has more stiffness than pure silk, making it easier to hold sharp folds and shapes.
- Exclusivity
- This pocket square is part of Le 31 by Simons' exclusive collection, conceived in Canada and executed by Italian artisans, so the design is not found in purely domestic or purely Italian lines.
