Product Insights
Le 31’s Western Triangle Collar Pin is a 9.99 CAD metal ornament, currently out of stock, that channels 1940s cowboy-craze collar tips via a polished silver raised triangle over antiqued scrollwork, echoing the same emblem on the brand’s Triangle Plaque Bolo and Turquoise Stone Geo Medallion Bolo. It is not a structural collar pin: a single push-back post mounts the triangle to one collar leaf, decorating an open collar but unable to lift a tie knot or hold the spread. The all-metal construction—post and friction clutch with no rubber or silicone layer—holds on standard-weight collars but can fail on thick fabric or after long wear, while piercing the fabric directly leaves permanent tiny holes and the metal back can scratch delicate collars. Proper use requires applying and drying cologne or sunscreen before pinning and storing the pin in its own sealed bag to avoid scratching other metal. Its value is purely visual: a Western-workwear accent with historical lineage, not a functional collar stay.
Verified claims
- Collar function
- One push-back post, not a bridging collar pin: decorates an open collar and won't lift a tie knot.
- Closure
- Push-back clutch holds on standard-weight shirt collars but can fail on thick fabric or after long wear.
- Fabric impact
- No pre-punched hole is needed: the push-back post pierces a standard button-down collar directly, leaving permanent tiny holes.
- Western styling
- Polished silver with antiqued scrollwork echoes Le 31's triangle-motif bolo ties for a coordinated Western look.
- Maintenance
- Wipe the pin with a dry, soft cloth after each wear to remove skin oils, then store it in a dry jewelry box or pouch away from humidity; avoid water and harsh chemical cleaners.
- Material
- Metal construction: bare metal post and friction clutch, no rubber or silicone layer to degrade
- Design heritage
- Triangle motif traces to 1940s cowboy-craze collar pins and recurs across Le 31's bolo line
- Scratch protection
- No rubber or silicone backing is included; the detachable round clutch is all metal, so the pin post contacts fabric directly and can scratch delicate collars. Buyers can add a felt or rubber backing for fine shirts.
- Western lineage
- This triangle is a Western-workwear ornament rooted in 1940s cowboy-craze collar tips that served as reverse collar stays.
- Vintage finish
- The finish is polished and shiny rather than brushed or matte: the raised center triangle and outer edges are polished silver, while the recessed scrollwork is darkened/antiqued for contrast. The polished high points show bright highlights, though exact mirror reflectivity is hard to judge in person.
- Styling order
- Apply perfume, sunscreen and styling products first and let them dry before pinning.
- Storage
- Stored loose, the pin's edges can scratch other metal accessories; keep it in its own sealed bag.
- Capsule pairing
- Same triangular plaque motif as Le 31's Triangle Plaque Bolo and Turquoise Stone Geo Medallion Bolo
- Edge and snag safety
- The triangle's perimeter is beveled rather than razor-sharp, but the pin post is pointed and the all-metal piece has no protective backing, so it can scratch or snag delicate collars and knitwear.
