New York-based fashion designer Mark McNairy has produced a collection of daring pocket squares. Although the fabric trimmings have seldom been used to deliver profane messages, these loaded pieces of cloth have been embossed with brazen "F*ck Off" memos etched out in white.

The cursing McNairy pocket squares offer a sneaky way to deliver [brazen missives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks). Though the F*ck Off statement is stitched across the front, effectively offsetting the bold-colored fabric choices, it is also meant to be tucked into [menswear pockets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silver-denim-collection). As such, these defiant fashion pieces may be masked. Alternatively, if one is having a [rebellious or rather troublesome day](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/debute-x-stripe-stare), the McNairy style has made it possible to exhibit a little disobedience. And while this mod display may not be appropriate for work settings, it can be worked into some more in-your-face nighttime looks.
