Review on Premium Men's Organic Cotton Handkerchiefs for Gentlemanly Elegance by Jae Newton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No organic cotton, no sewn label, no certificate of origin on the fabric, LINTY

Hard to believe it's organic cotton, or even 100% cotton. The handkerchiefs I grew up with and my dad had were 100% cotton and they never came out linen with lint. Most of the clothes and other handkerchiefs I own are 100% cotton and none of my clothes are as fluffy as after three washes. I cannot use them for their intended purpose. Very disappointed. Edited for update: after a dozen washes they are finally lint free. I wonder if the fabric was coated in any way? They are in my tissue rotation and now serve that purpose perfectly. I still prefer my cut handkerchiefs to jersey t-shirts because they're comfortable and absorbent. I have updated my rating to 3 stars instead of one. Perhaps they should consider scouring the fabric before sewing and selling it. Second change: After only two months, the stitching on the edges of one of the handkerchiefs came undone. Needless to say I will not be buying these again. Shame as I like the idea of a nice, neat scarf made from sturdy organic cotton and will continue my search to update my collection elsewhere.

Pros
  • Useful for more than it's intended purpose
Cons
  • It's ok
