I have some good news for you.
If girls start coming up to you and trying to steal your pocket square, it means you’re giving off a sexy vibe.
Well done, my good Sir. Well done.
Stealing your pocket square or pochette is a way for a girl to trigger your interest and start a conversation with you.
If she wasn’t interested in you, she wouldn’t even have looked at you, let alone try to take your pocket square. But there she is, stealing your pochette (hopefully a Glamorous Pochette)
When I founded Glamorous Pochette, I used to have my manufacturer ship me ten or twenty samples to test out for our new collections. I’d wear one every day to see which attracted the most attention.
Unfortunately, every time I went to a party, I would come home without my pocket square.
Often it was a girl who’d stolen it from me, but there were also guys who wanted to try out the pocket square and work the crowd… and never returned.
I kid you not. This kind of stuff happens.
And it was pissing me off. It had to stop.
So how to stop people from stealing your pochette?
Simple.
Be a fucking man.
It’s not that complicated.
When you see a girl or guy trying to get their hands on your beloved pocket square, just say:
Don’t even try it. Just don’t. I spent twenty minutes in the bathroom working on that fold and if you destroy it now, you and I going to have a serious talk.
Now. Can I help you with something?”
Okay. I get it. I’m being a jerk.
But sometimes I have to be.
I’ve lost more than fifteen pocket squares, just by not speaking up. (Well, all right, I’ll admit it: sometimes I drank a little too much and lost one in the men’s room or somewhere….)
You worked hard to buy that Glamorous Pochette.
Don’t let people steal it.
Be man. A real one.
Good luck.
KJ.
