It was quite a jump, as a man, to make this purchase, but I wanted to do the ascot look, but not in the frumpy pre-cut ascot style. And I was hooked. I won't hazard to say how many more I purchased, both at Hermes and on eBay...and I've sold many of them, too.

When I do, the feeling is incomparable. They immediately raise my spirits! I bought them for myself using birthday gift money and plan to do the same next year.

Funnily enough, I was in Liberty in October and they were doing a scarf tying clinic . . . but I didn't have time to check it out.

Of course, being Hermes, the booklet is printed beautifully. <br /><br />I have worn them as a support for a sore arm...in a hurricane: those scarves can withstand anything.

Their texture is so sumptuous that they never gain a crease, save the ones they originally bear.
