00:00 Cheap vs. Expensive Cufflinks Introduction

Cufflinks are one of the most iconic accessories in classic menswear. They create unexpected visual interest, they denote your personal style, and they can tie an outfit together. And, of course, they also do their most vital duty by keeping your shirt cuffs together.

01:14 What We Mean by “Cheap” and “Expensive”

“Cheap” is obviously a relative, and, if you live in India, it’s a very different amount than if you live in the United States. For the purpose of this post, we consider everything under $50 cheap for a pair of cufflinks. Expensive, everything above $300, and then there’s the in-between ground.

19:48 Other Factors Contributing to Cost

In summary, cufflinks are a unique component of your outfit. They’re instantly noticed, and they always elevate your outfit. Because of that, we feel it makes the most sense to invest in quality. But, frankly, we believe quality goods are probably the better choice in most regards.

If you support true craftsmen, you have a product that is more satisfying. It will last longer, which by definition means it’s greener. If you wear something for a hundred years, then you don’t have to reproduce it. Rather than wasting energy by recasting, even if you recycle it, it’s not as green as something that you don’t have to replace.
