Fashion and function meet with the new 'Bullet-Proof Pocketsquare'

OK, so file this under things you never thought you needed -- but just might: military grade Kevlar handkerchief. The price is not available, but its purpose is obvious: to protect you from gunshot wounds at, presumably, swanky events where an elegant jacket and pocket square might be worn.

But if it fails in its duty, don't blame Liborius, the company which makes them. By way of disclaimer, the company says,
"The 21st century ninja dandy bullet-proof handkerchief made of Kevlar is exclusively sold at Liborius. The store and designer take NO responsibility for schmucks and wooden-heads who feel compelled to test the endurance or resistance of the textile in any way."

So, in other words, don't have your buddy fire bullets at your chest just to see if your swanky hanky will hold up.

It was my pleasure to visit your blog. It is really a mirecle to visit your blog in this wide world. And I also have the feeling that it was really a pity that we didn't meet each other earlier. Because the kindness and warmth in your blog can make me completely relaxed and happy. I hope that you will visit my blog too to see if you can have the same feeling.
