The Great Handkerchief Comeback
The following guest post is written by Marion, co-founder of TSHU
Today, I’d like to tell you why I think the handkerchief is about to make a great comeback, with 6 excellent reasons why:
Be prepared for anything. Having a handkerchief on you means you will always be ready to deal with the unexpected. Spill some coffee? Forgot to grab napkins with that sandwich? Suffering from the heat? Feeling emotional? Submitted to your toddler’s impromptu tantrum and left to pick up the pieces? Affected by seasonal allergies? Sniffling because of a cold? Pull out your handkerchief and save the situation with style.
Chivalry. Now, this is one that does not only apply to men. There’s an old saying that one must always carry two handkerchiefs: one for show, and one for blow. Indeed, keep the one you have been using (no matter how) and be ready to offer a clean hanky to the less clever one (aka those who don’t carry a handkerchief around and are facing unexpected messes).
Practicality.We have already covered the unexpected aspect, but having a soft, absorbent cotton handkerchief is also practical. You may not be comfortable blowing your nose at all times, but if you are outdoors in cold rainy weather, enjoy outdoor sports such as skating or skiing, or if you love to bike in the heat or train outdoors in warm weather, you will instantly see the benefits of being able to mop the sweat off your brow or wiping your nose without having your tissue disintegrate.
Environment. That is an easy one. Do you have any idea what kind of waste goes into producing, commercialising and using paper tissues? Every year, more than 3 billion kilos of paper tissues are used and wasted. That is the equivalent of 70 million trees. Just think of how many trees you can save by opting for handkerchiefs?
Style. Of course, any piece of cloth can do the job, but you can also decide to show others proudly that you are making a statement for the environment. Choose a colourful, bold handkerchief you love – that way you will actually want to carry it around and pull it out in front of others! Handkerchiefs can even work as practical pocket squares – a stylish addition to the suit yet practical if need be.
Are you ready to adopt a handkerchief?
