Frequently Asked Questions
The history of the HANK-EASE
Do you have room in your brain for a little unnecessary trivia? If the answer’s yes, read on. If not, skip to the next paragraph. In the beginning, the HANK-EASE was a practical accessory Romans used to wipe sweat and dirt from their faces. Sometimes, HANK-EASEs were even perfumed to hide unpleasant smells. Over the years, this little piece of fabric developed into a purely decorative fashion accessory, but it wasn’t until the 20th century that they began to be used solely for this purpose.
When should I wear a HANK-EASE?
You can wear a HANK-EASE any time you wear a suit or jacket. You can wear it for a regular day at the office or with your coat at a Nobel Prize dinner. The great thing about a HANK-EASE is that it’s both informal and formal, meaning that it always works. Also, it’s incredibly easy to put in your chest pocket with a puff fold. If you have a load of HANK-EASEs in different colours and patterns, it’s easy to mix up your outfit from day to day even if you have a limited number of jackets and shirts.
How do I stop my HANK-EASE from falling into my pocket?
HANK-EASE slipping into jacket pockets after a while is a classic problem. It takes a little training on how to fold the HANK-EASE properly to prevent it from happening quite as frequently. The important thing is to achieve the perfect width of fold on the HANK-EASE so that the side walls of the jacket pocket keep it in place. If your fold is too narrow, the HANK-EASE will slide down immediately. The size of the pocket and the thickness and dimensions of the HANK-EASE and its dimensions all play a role, so it’s important to adapt your folding technique accordingly.
What HANK-EASE should I choose?
he size: The most common size of HANK-EASEs is between 25 x 25 cm and 30 x 30 cm. Something to keep in mind is that you don’t want one that’s too big and clumsy in your breast pocket. It’s not nice if it forms a big ball that bulges out of your jacket. We really appreciate slightly smaller handkerchiefs of 25 x 25 cm, as it’s possible to do all folds without them making a mess in your breast pocket. If you do go for a larger HANK-EASE, it should preferably be relatively thin so as not to become too unwieldy.
What color HANK-EASE?
More than anything, you need all sorts of color HANK-EASE in your wardrobe. It’s almost as basic as owning a pair of black socks. No matter what jacket or shirt you wear, you can never go wrong with a solid color or textured fabric color HANK-EASE. It should be made of cotton or linen if it’s black tie or white tie.
Should I match my HANK-EASE to my bow tie or tie?
As a groom, best man or marshal at a wedding, it is an excellent choice to wear matching handkerchief with bow tie or tie. Likewise if you are going to match your prom partner’s dress when you are going to dance prom. But in most other situations, it is better that the handkerchief is not exactly the same as the tie or bow tie. They can be in a similar colour and style, but you should preferably avoid an exact match. If you still want an exact match, it’s not wrong, but it will automatically be a more informal outfit of a more festive nature.
Can you iron a HANK-EASE?
Yes, you can, but place a piece of cloth between the iron and the HANK-EASE, start on a low heat, and use lots of steam. Be careful, as too much heat can damage a HANK-EASE, especially if it’s made of sensitive silk. Do you really need to iron your HANK-EASE when it’s going to get folded or puffed in your jacket pocket anyway? Once it’s in your jacket pocket, an ironed HANK-EASE won’t necessarily look any better.
How do I get rid of stains on my HANK-EASE?
Start by gently scraping off as much of the staining food as you can. Then, dip a cloth in cold mineral water and try to rub away the stain. If you can, dry the HANK-EASE immediately so that you’re not left with permanent water stains. Water can leave dark circles on a light silk HANK-EASE.
How should I store my HANK-EASE?
A handy tip if you want to keep your HANK-EASEs in order while also getting a good overview of them is to put them is a shallow glass bowl with a small diameter of between 5 and 10 cm depending on the number of HANK-EASEs in your collection. Fold the HANK-EASEs into puffs and put them in the bowl at the same time for a practical and stylish solution. Just choose the HANK-EASE you want each morning and pull it right out.ring a tie clip to a funeral. You wear a tie to a funeral to show your respect for the deceased, not to look good.
