The Bullet-Proof Gentlemen’s Pocket Square Handkerchief
FOR the modern man about town: “The Damned is a Bullet-Proof* Gentlemen’s Pocket Square measuring 270 mm x 270, made from lemon Military Grade Ballistic Strength Aramid Fibre - to protect the hearts of men.”
Originally made in a limited issue of ten in 2007, The Damned now has been released as an open edition.
This ‘pocket-protector’ of the Modern Ages is bound in Citric French Cotton and in light of its chamfered corners we developed a Unique and New Fold to the Gentlemen’s Square, to which we have afforded the name: The Damned

* If a gun is aimed at you, fired, and the slug hits you, you will be hurt despite the properties of the square; The impact of the projectile itself is likely to fracture, crack or break your bones bones and bruise you. According to the specifications of the textile, a ballistic projectile such as a bullet will not pass through thirty two layers of this material. We take NO responsibility for those who feel compelled to test the endurance or resistance of the textile in any way.

maybe rather than folded, Yampster, the layers are merely sandwiched together….?

The image looks like a ham and cheese toastie. I’ve made few that were hard on the choppers, but bulletproof? No, not quite.

Hah! Folding this square enough times to produce 32 layers gives you a wad of material approx 40mm by 90 mm. You just have to hope that any sniper is accurate enough to hit a target that size.
And, before you say it. I do have a life and I do have something better to do. It’s just that I’m not that busy at this particular time. Honest
