La Closure Men's 100 Cotton Handkerchiefs 6 Pack

My boyfriend is the kind of person who blows a hole through every tissue he blows his nose with. He also has the kind of sinuses that - depending on the time of year - he may need to blow his nose dozens of times a day. Before now, this meant he was constantly carrying around a massive wad of paper towels in his pocket to be able to blow his nose. If you've ever blown your nose on a paper towel, I'm sure you know how deeply unpleasant that is and how it can quickly irritate your nose. I've been suggesting handkerchiefs for months (maybe years) but he kept scoffing and making comments about how hankies were an "old person thing", so I kept putting off buying some.I finally bought these because he's in the middle of one of his sinus problem seasons again and I thought "well if he won't use them, I will". Turns out that now that he has them, he loves them. They stand up nicely to the strength of him blowing his nose, they're nice and soft, they're reusable and he no longer has massive wads of paper towels cluttering up his pockets.What I especially like about these is that the particular set I got is dark in color. I had been considering switching to handkerchiefs myself for a while now but the ones I've looked at before were all white or lightly colored. My big sinus problem is that I have a high tendency toward nosebleeds, so I kept putting it off because I kept thinking, "If I bleed on one of these things and the stain doesn't come out, how's that going to look - carrying a bloodstained cloth everywhere I go?" The dark color of these means that if that ever does happen, it wouldn't be readily noticeable at least.Just purchased a second set of these so we each have a full set to ourselves, so we don't end up fighting over them.

Package of 8 various prints thick cotton pocket hankerchirfs. I don’t think many men my age or especially younger would even have a clue what they are used for. But growing up my father gave me a couple and I even have my 7 year old son keep one in his pocket of his nose is running. Also they come in handy if you wear eyeglasses and need to clean them, hot days you can blott the sweat from your head or simply blow your nose

I decided that it was time to replace my 30-plus year old handkerchief collecton. It may not be fair to compare these to the older ones, that have been washed hundreds of times and probably aren't as thick as they were when they were new. But these are definitely thick, soft, and the colors are more interesting than white or plain stripes. One thing with the old ones is that they didn't need to be ironed. I washed and ironed these before using them, but haven't washed them again, so I don't know if they will need to be ironed again. But the quality is top-notch.

Love carrying these during my spring and fall allergy season. Soft to the nose. Wash easily; no stains left from use. Still soft after washing and no stray strings, etc. Also useful on a hot day to wipe the brow. A good purchase - I recommend these for a basic set of hankies.

These are the kind of handkerchiefs that go beyond the mundane cheapies that just work ok, but you don't really want anyone to see them because they get nasty looking, especially if they're white and absorb stains easily and show it to the world when you pull them out. These look great, are soft and kind to your nose, and the colors hide any potential stains.

I purchased these handkerchiefs and was extremely disappointed when I took them out of the dryer. They shrivel up and need to be ironed and in today's day who the hell has the time to iron handkershiefs!!! I would not recommend and I'm sorry I purchased them. I bought other handkerchiefs on a different site and they came out of the dryer wrinkle free. So if you have all the time in the world to iron these little pieces of cloth, then buy them, otherwise, DON'T BUY!!

Two of the six handkerchiefs arrived with tears in their centers. The shipping packaging and product packaging were intact with no damage. It appears that the two defective handkerchiefs were damaged during their manufacturing and shipped without any quality review. I will use the four undamaged ones and trash the two defective ones. Very disappointing experience.

Attractive and absorbent handkerchiefs work well for their original, intended use, and would make lovely pocket hankies as well. If they were slightly softer they would get five stars. This may come with additional washings, but they are great just as they are.
