The orange hanky code bandana is for adventurers who don't like being put in a box. In the hanky code, orange traditionally means "anything goes" – openness to new things and a love of surprises. A vibrant piece that livens up your outfit at a festival or a club night.
How the bandana is traditionally worn:
Left back pocket / left wrist: active role – the one who sets the direction.
Right back pocket / right wrist: passive role – the one who likes to be led.
Around the neck: both roles (switch) – or simply a bandana that looks good on you.
The colour-coded bandana system was born in 1970s San Francisco and New York, where the gay and leather scene adopted it. Every colour had its meaning, and the side you wore it on completed the message. Today many people wear it with a wink – as a nod to community history and simply as a bandana for festivals or everyday wear.
Classic 55 × 55 cm polyester bandana. Wear it around your neck, on your head, on your wrist or in your back pocket – at a festival, on a bike or just around town.
