I think people who look at the $15 price point and think to themselves, "I can get 12 mass produced handkerchiefs for $10" are kind of missing the point.First of all, this handkerchief is fantastic quality-wise. It's made in South Korea, so you can be sure everything from the sourcing of the cotton to the working conditions of the craftspeople to the impact of their manufacturing on their environment are top notch. The cotton, in fact, is GOTS certified; this means that they don't just say "organic" (which anyone can claim), they've got certification to back them up.The dobby weave reminded me of my dad's old handkerchief years and years ago—it's just the right amount of thinness and softness (without being too thin or soft).Like many of our fathers and grandfathers, my dad grew up in a time when everyone knew instinctively not to waste. How different it is today, when we routinely use and throw away paper, tissues, paper towels, cotton towels, and every other paper product without even thinking, assuming that once the trash man takes it away then "poof", it vanishes (spoiler alert: it doesn't). Worse, we're now doing the same thing with plastic; from microfiber "cloth" to Swiffer dusters. And those REALLY don't vanish.I love the message that Hanky Gang is sending in their quest to "bring back the hanky". Sorry, I don't see it as a "marketing gimmick" but as a way to use commerce to remind us all that we've gone a little too far in our wasteful consumerism and really need to dial it back with something as simple as using a handkerchief if you need to wipe your brow, or wipe your mouth, or dab a runny nose just like previous generations did not too long ago. At 13.8" x 13.8" , it's plenty big to use for all kinds of things before you wash it.$15 spent on a high-quality cotton hanky supporting South Korean craftspeople + supporting multiple charities + supporting entrepreneurs in the USA is far superior IMO than spending it on a crate of Kleenex from the local warehouse store or continuing to buy and toss cheap junk. These folks created a great product and concept, and I hope they do great with it.

The handkerchief is back in fashion, more sustainable and soft than ever before ♥️ the embroidery is super cute (I got the tree one) and the material is amazingly soft and high quality. No unfinished threading sticking out. Can’t wait to use my hanky in public!

I love that when I buy this hanky, it plants one tree. I think it's a lovely idea that using a hanky instead of a paper tissue eventually plants a tree. Also I like that this handkerchief looks so much more playful and cute. Other hankies, I usually find them too old style, make me look like old grandma. But this one has simple design with really cute emoji, it doesn't have that grandma vibe at all. The fabric is very soft and the embroidery quality is top notch.

I like carrying hanky with me to be eco-friendly and to wipe my hands off after washing hands in public bathrooms. This organic cotton hanky is so soft and of high quality! Emoji embroidery is very cute, I love the look and feel of the weave a lot. I’ll be carrying this hanky with me!

I’m so happy with my Hanky Gang handkerchief! The cotton is super soft, the size is perfect for daily use, and the embroidered emoji (I got the rainbow) is so cute. The packaging was absolutely adorable, and the unboxing experience felt so special—it’s clear a lot of thought went into every detail. I also love that every hanky plants a tree—such a great idea! The quality is amazing, and it feels good to use something eco-friendly and well-made. Highly recommend! 🌳
