POST & CLUTCH OPTIONS


post clutch
Posts for tie tacks and lapel pins come in 1/2, 3/8 and 1/4 inch. Ideal post lenghts depends on thickness of the cloth on which you put the pin.

1/2 inch posts are rarely needed. 3/8 inch works generally well for tie tacks and pins that are worn on thicker clothes like coats. 1/4 inch works well for thin cloths and lapels.



post clutch
There are two types of clutches. The ball clutch works for all three post sizes. However, you may prefer the flat butterfly clutch on the 1/4 inch pin.

When choosing a pin and clutch, please consider on what type of clothes and where (lapel, chest pocket, hat, backpack etc) you will be wearing the pin!
