Yokomatsu Select's chief is "high-quality brand items that people would be happy to receive."

With the rise of going tie-less, pocket squares are selling well and are becoming recognized as a fashion item. The pocket square I chose as a Valentine's Day gift is from TURNBULL＆ASSER , a well-known brand that many men specifically request.

Tsuchida's selection of chiefs includes "plain and playful patterns that can be shared with women."

A pocket square is a more casual yet stylish gift than a tie, and is especially appreciated by men who care about their appearance. For men who haven't worn pocket squares much, I recommend a white pocket square from MUNGAI with contrasting piping. This makes it easy to try out. As you become more comfortable with pocket squares in your style, you'll be more inclined to try more unique designs, so I highly recommend this as your first step into the world of pocket squares.


Furthermore, one accessory I would recommend is a pocket square from Seaward & Stern, featuring playful colors and patterns. While pocket squares might seem a bit embarrassing for fathers, suggesting that they wear a pocket square and take their father out for dinner on White Day, especially if he tends to dress conservatively without a tie, is a wonderful way to encourage family time.

The two women chose the pocket squares because, "They're not too expensive, and they're perfect as gifts."

After seeing the pocket squares chosen by Yokomatsu and Tsuchida, Taniguchi explains, "The look of a pocket square changes depending on how you wear it, and you'll be happy to receive any color or pattern. You can never have too many as an accent color for your outfit. Especially in the summer, you'll often wear jackets with cut-and-sew tops, but when you feel like you're being too casual, a pocket square is a versatile and useful item."
