Design & Inspiration:

‘Closing In’ is a unique and high-quality full-size silk pocket square, Made in England. It has been created in collaboration with one of today's foremost sports artists, Mark Trubisky. He is renowned for his brilliantly coloured and emotionally charged art which captures key moments of sporting drama.

Mark’s original work was created digitally and was inspired by that split second where the outcome of the football game hangs in the balance; will it be a winning touchdown or will the defence come out on top.

Quality:

In Macclesfield, the traditional home of English silk printing, the artwork is reproduced with great care. This enables an excellent balance of design colour & clarity between the printed and reverse sides of the fine Mulberry silk twill, ensuring the pocket square looks perfect whichever fold is used. The image is framed by the pocket square’s dark turquoise border and the skilfully hand-rolled & hand-sewn 'shoestring' hem in purple. The overall quality of this pocket square from the UK's leading maker is what you would normally expect to find only on London's Savile Row or Jermyn Street.

Gift Presentation:

'Closing In' is presented in a complimentary Otway & Orford branded gift box with its blueberry-coloured lid and pale blue base. Inside each box, this stylish American football silk pocket square is tissue-wrapped and accompanied by a card telling the story of the artist and his vibrant artwork.

Material Composition & Care

High-quality 100% Mulberry silk woven into 16oz silk twill gives the characteristic sheen and cool touch as well as ensuring the pocket square sits nicely in the top pocket.

Silk should always be dry cleaned. Avoid pressing the hand-finished hem to preserve its distinctive 'shoestring' shape.
