I had ordered a few Hill-Side pocket squares and handkerchiefs from Context awhile back, but I didn’t really get around to using any of them until today.
While not very soft like a lightweight chambray shirting, the fabric is certainly nice and is well made. Leaving in the selvedge line also adds a nice bit of contrast to the deep colors these were dyed with. If the Hill-Side folks were looking for suggestions for future versions, I would like to see these made without the large sewn-in tags which are a little annoying (which I’ll be taking out with a seam ripper soon enough). Adding in hand rolled edges could also be an interesting touch as well.
I’ve heard that stores will be getting more in soon, so be sure to check in with your local stockist.
