Pocket Square Clothing Accessory

Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for producing a pocket square. The pocket square may include a single layer or may include multiple layers. In some embodiments, the pocket square may include a first layer having a length and width. The first layer may be attached to a second layer configured to have the same length and width as the first layer. Disposed between the first layer and the second layer there may be a third layer configured to maintain a desired shape of the pocket square. In some embodiments, the third layer comprises at least one of: a polymeric material, a non-polymeric material, a metallic mesh, a metallic foil, a woven fabric, a non-woven fabric, and/or a fabric infiltrated with a polymer.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A multi-layered pocket square comprising:
 a first layer having a length and a width;   a second layer attached to the first layer, the second layer having a length approximately equal to the length of the first layer and a width approximately equal to the width of the first layer; and   a middle layer abutting the first layer and the second layer, the middle layer comprising a metallic mesh,   wherein the multi-layered pocket square has an overall square or rectangular shape.   
     
     
         2 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 1 , wherein the metallic mesh comprises a plurality of copper wires. 
     
     
         3 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 2 , wherein the copper wires have a diameter of between 0.005 cm and 0.15 cm. 
     
     
         4 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 3 , wherein the copper wires have a purity of at least 95%. 
     
     
         5 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 1 , wherein the middle layer has a length and a width that are each at least 1% less than the length and the width of the first layer. 
     
     
         6 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 1 , wherein the middle layer has a length and a width that are each at least 5% less than the length and the width of the first layer. 
     
     
         7 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 1 , wherein the middle layer is attached to at least one of the first layer and the second layer with an adhesive. 
     
     
         8 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 7 , wherein the first and the second layer are attached with a plurality of stitches. 
     
     
         9 . The multi-layered pocket square of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer each comprise at least one of cotton, silk and linen. 
     
     
         10 . A method of producing a multi-layered pocket square, the method comprising:
 forming a first layer having a length and a width;   forming a second layer having a length and a width, wherein the length of the second layer is approximately equal to the length of the first layer and the width of the second layer is approximately equal to the width of the first layer;   positioning a middle layer having a length and a width between the first layer and the second layer, wherein the length of the middle layer is less than the length of the first layer and the width of the middle layer is less than the width of the first layer;   adhering the middle layer to at least one of the first layer and the second layer; and   adhering the first layer to the second layer.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the first layer is adhered to the second layer with a plurality of stitches. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the middle layer is adhered to at least one of the first layer and the second layer with a polymeric adhesive comprising at least one of: a vinyl acetate, an acrylate, and a urethane. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the first layer and the second layer each comprise a fabric. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the middle layer is a metallic mesh comprising a plurality of copper wires. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein the copper wires have a purity of at least 95%. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein the copper wires have a diameter of between 0.005 cm and 0.15 cm.
