Patterned Pocket Squares

Patterned pocket squares do the talking when the tie is plain, and there are 38 designs on this page. Microdots such as Microdot Midnight and Powder Blue and Microdot Mango and White are small and tidy; paisleys including Almond Paisley and Garnet Red Paisley are richer; stripes such as Navy and Yellow Striped are crisp; and geometrics like Midnight and Ivory Geometric are the most modern of the group.

Buying for yourself, choose a pattern whose colours pick up your shirt or tie rather than repeat them exactly. Buying a gift, a navy based microdot or stripe is the most versatile, and suits a man who wears a jacket to work. Every square can be personalised with up to three embroidered initials, which makes a patterned square a small but thoughtful present.
