The Dark Knot’s Men’s Accessories were developed in a similar vein to our inaugural line, silk ties. You see, our core philosophy at The Dark Knot was always to provide the market with affordable, luxurious hand made ties & accessories, all while helping gentlemen dress better. Hence, each of our items come presented in an elegant black gift box, along with a card with recommendations for matching attire.

But besides the embedded style consultation / matching attire advice that comes with every item, we have paid meticulous, painstaking attention to every detail along the way, ensuring the best product development cycle possible. Below are features from each of our accessories lines (excluding ties), that make them truly stand out.

Silk & Linen Pocket Squares

Key Highlights of our pocket square offering:

• Luxurious, hand made silk & linen pocket squares with contrasting hand rolled edges for further sophistication.
• Larger pocket squares than are typically offered in the market, allowing your pocket squares to remain firmly in place for the duration of the day or night that you are wearing your item! Our Silk Pocket Squares are 17 x 17 inches, while our Linen Pocket Squares are 15 x 15 inches.
• Presented in an elegant black gift box, along with a card with recommendations for matching attire – so that your pocket squares are always coordinated to your ties and /or the rest of your attire.
• Additionally, our pocket squares come with a card detailing various folds – We literally want to make the pocket square wearing experience as pleasant as possible for you!

Typically, pocket squares offered in the market place are often bland. While there may be some great, eye catching designs out there, very few pocket squares pop off like ours do. Each of our Silk & Linen Pocket Squares are carefully handcrafted, along with hand rolled contrasting edges (as opposed to the typical machine stitched edges that are not usually color contrasted) – lending to a natural, dapper and clean look that really stands out.

Additionally, most pocket squares in the marketplace don’t typically stay protruding out of the pocket for very long – they are simply too small, with many silk pocket squares falling in the 12 x 12 or 13 x 13 inches range. These pocket squares are simply not large enough in size to maintain their intended purpose, especially when folded the way silk pocket squares are folded – which is typically with a puff fold. The Dark Knot’s Silk Pocket Squares, by contrast, are much larger in size at 17 x 17 inches, ensuring that your pocket square will remain in your pocket  - even after dancing the night away!

Linen Pocket Squares, by contrast, don’t have to be as large, as they are typically utilizing folds that show off the relative rigidity of the fabric – think two, three of four point pocket square folds. Because these folds don’t result in the pocket square being bunched up, but rather, meticulously folded, these pocket squares require less surface area than their silk counterparts. With that being said, we still wanted to ensure that your pocket square does in fact remain see throughout the day or night, and so, our Linen Pocket Squares are 15 x 15 inches.

Leather & Beaded Bracelets

Key Product Highlights:

• Leather Bracelets are offered with magnetic clasp interlocking, ensuring that your bracelets always remain intact around your wrist!
• Our beaded bracelets are 8mm in diameter – the perfect balance between casual and formal wear, allowing you to rock your beaded bracelets on an evening out with friends or while strutting a suit to that all important cocktail party!
• All of our bracelets are presented in an elegant black gift box, along with a card with recommendations for matching attire.

At The Dark Knot, we understand how important your bracelet game is. We therefore have carefully curated a selection of leather & beaded bracelets for all occasions. Our leather bracelets come in a range of designs, often featuring gold or silver elements. Additionally, we offer leather anchor bracelets if you would like to opt for a more nautical aesthetic. Each of our bracelets with magnetic clasp finishing, ensuring that your bracelet remains securely interlocked the entire time it is worn!

Beaded Bracelets have made a strong resurgence in recent years, and there was absolutely no reason why we couldn’t add an extensive beaded bracelet selection. Our beaded bracelet range includes a variety of designs featuring lions, leopards & crowns in both single and stackable beaded bracelet formats. Smaller beaded bracelets, in the 6mm range, are typically worn in more formal settings, whilst larger beaded bracelets, typically in the 10-12mm range are best suited towards more casual settings.

The Dark Knot’s beaded bracelets therefore fall in the 8mm range, making them your ideal go to beaded bracelets for both casual & formal wear!

Additionally, our beaded bracelets come in a variety of materials, such as lavastone and tiger eye, allowing you to curate a range that will be suitable any time you step out of the house!

Tie Bars

Key Product Highlights:

• Stainless Steel Tie Bars presented in a range of lengths – as tie bars are typically expected to cover 2/3 of the width of your tie – hence, we have shorter length tie bars (1.5 inches / 4 cm range) and longer length tie bars (2.4 inches / 6 cm range) to complement both skinny and regular width ties respectively.
• Tie Bar offering in a range of colors, so you can add that element of pizzaz to any of your ensembles.
• A range of unique, novelty tie bars such as an octopus theme or mustache tie bar, that are bound to be instant conversation starters!
• Tie bars come with pinch clasp finishing, ensuring that your tie bars remain firmly in place.
• Presented in an elegant black gift box along with a card with recommendations for matching attire, so that your tie bar / tie game is always well coordinated and never out of sync!

Tie Bars are typically either offered with a slide clasp (where the tie bar, as the name implies, is slid across the tie) or a pinch clasp, to help keep the tie bar securely in place (more securely than a slide clasp, anyway!). As a result, we have developed a line of pinch clasp tie bars.

A tie, when worn, is supposed to be the center point and statement piece of a man’s attire. Hence, maintaining the vertical lines of a tie are extremely important – and accessorizing it with a tie bar should not cut across that vertical line. It is therefore imperative that a tie bar does not cut across the entire width of the tie, but only about 2/3rds at most. The Dark Knot therefore carries a range of tie bars across different lengths, so as to be able to complement both skinny and regular width ties!

Slim Wallets

The Dark Knot carries a range of slim wallets, across metal, leather and hybrid varieties. Key characteristics of The Dark Knot’s inaugural wallet line, The Pro Performance Wallet, are as follows:

Money Clips

Money Clips were supposedly invented for one purpose, and one purpose only – to minimize the size of that wallet, and hopefully, reduce unwanted back pain! The issue with most money clips, however, is that there is a cap on the number of cards and cash your money clip can hold, given physical constraints.

With The Dark Knot’s Money Clip, we have introduced spring technology into our clips, allowing you to insert both cash and credit cards effortlessly.

Additionally, each of our money clips come presented in an elegant, black gift box.

Colorful Socks

Colorful Socks for men have emerged as a strong stylistic statement over the last few years, and with good reason! Why not break up the monotony of your boring, drab socks, and infuse your attire & ensembles with a splash of color!

Collar Stays

Key characteristics of The Dark Knot’s Collar Stay Offering:

• The Dark Knot’s Brass Collar Stay Gift Set comes with six pairs of beautifully engraved brass collar stays, along with an elegant gift box.
• Brass Collar Stays with ‘The Dark Knot’ engraving, available in one of the following
• 3 pairs 2.5 inches, 3 pairs x 2.75 inches
• 6 pairs x 2.5 inches or 6 pairs x 2.75 inches

As the cliché goes – it’s the little details that matter – and nothing attests to that more than collar stays.  Collar Stays, commonly referred to as ‘collar tabs’ or ‘collar stiffeners’ are flat, rigid pieces of plastic or metal, which are inserted in designated pockets on the underside of your dress shirt collar – the purpose of a collar stay is enough to provide the collar with weight and crispiness, so as to keep the shirt collar in place. Collar stays give your shirt collars just the right amount of weight, so that it lays flat against your collar bone.

Collar stays are typically offered in plastic or metal, with metal naturally comprising of a sturdier fabric. The Dark Knot’s collar stay offering consists of brass collar stays, which are a higher grade of metal.

Our research shows that collar stays should typically be in the 2.5 inch to 2.75 inch range, depending on the length of your collars. As a result, The Dark Knot’s Brass Collar Stay Offering comes in 6 pairs of 2.5 inches, 6 pairs of 2.75 inches, or 3 pairs of each length.

Adoring a suit with a lapel flower, contrary to popular belief, is a sign of masculinity! And while it may not always be related to remembrance and the wearing of poppy’s, lapel flowers are a great way to accentuate your suiting attire.
