Pocket square with chore jacket?

[josepidal]

I am really liking the Mont St Michel French chore or work jackets, because the moleskin fabric is extremely comfortable and wearable on both a hot summer and cooler spring day, and it strikes me as slightly tailored looking compared to pure work jackets.

Has anyone tried wearing pocket squares, whether printed silk or much more casual cotton of linen, with such jackets? Sounds counterintuitive but could be great with the right chinos or linen pants and dressy sneakers.

Also, if you are a shorter guy, would you go out of your way to get such a French chore jacket's sleeves shortened or would you just fold or cuff them given they are casual and workwear?

Ditch the chore jacket and get a moleskin blazer. Then you can wear whatever pocket square you like with impunity. Problem solved!😜
