Nice to see some pics here. Loving them, even though bags are not my thing (yet). Here are some quick pics of my latest. I had no idea the Pavois dip-dye was coming out this season and when it was unfolded for me it blew my mind! :woot: Hope you enjoy it too. Oh btw valmont, these are two styles I regularly use. Let's do share how we tie our scarfs, it will be interesting to find out about other styles! Keep it scarfing guys!

It is 90 cm. I think for guys some scarves work really well if you fold them as a triangle and wear them as a bandana, cowboy style. I put the triangle to the front and then wrap the ends around my neck and tie them in the front but hide the ends so that it doesn't look to femmy :tender:

70 cm is as small as I go.

I have been thinking of starting a sub-thread here: "How to Tie your Hermes Scarf -- for Guys" :supacool:

Tysons Corner, Virginia near DC. Apparently, the store received two Kelly Relax when I bought mine, one in White which was sold and the one I bought.

Not sure how come the store had those two unique colors, but when I called around for fact checking after I bought mine to determine how limited it indeed was, nobody had ever seen the color in gray :-) and in white.

I love love your bisquit though...a great warm color :-)

Great thanks for the info! Enjoy your Kelly Relax and don't be afraid of getting it damaged. H leather is TOUGH! My mom still has her Kelly she bought in the 70s in BOX leather, I remember her wearing it in cabs, in the rain, the the snow etc. shoving us kids to school etc. and nothing ever happened to the bag, it only got more beautiful with wear & age!

LOL yes I find the photo amusing too ... Different strokes different folks ya know :)
And I do wear Carré 90 when I travel as it can be packed easily in my jacket pocket!
But now I have been using silk twill stoles by Pierre Louis Mascia... He does very beautiful print and in good length in heavy silk twill ... Unique as he does it in both side so when it is being worn the effect is very interesting :)

Thanks! I love Jungle Love and would love to get my hands on one sometime. Someone else asked about the exact color code as well but I am afraid I don't have it!! I forgot to ask for it in the excitement of the purchase. :smile1: I would describe it as a deep purple base color with a grey hem.

Also thanks to you. About the way I tied my Cavalcadour, if you start the 'how to knot for guys' I will be happy to give a step by step explanation. :amuse: Or perhaps we just want to start that right here in this thread.

Mind you, I feel that the poor camera I had on me flashed away a lot of the subtleness of this scarf. It may look shiny but it is not really, it is beautifully subtle. Of the two other dominant colors in the scarf, blue and red, the blue makes it even intenser, while the red makes it stand out more. However, no matter how you fold it, it never has too much in-your-face value (as the regular carré can be, which is of course sometimes exactly what you want). I also feel that the more I take a close look at the different flags, the more I like this scarf, but that is of course something completely personal.

From my experience today, the dip-dye in general is less shiny than the regular carré, and also feels more fluid and less thick. I am now convinced that dip-dye is an excellent choice for us gentlemen. My collection is young so it will be interesting to see how it will grow, but there is a good chance it will become mainly dip-dye over the years.
