Bandana vs Neckerchief

I was looking at accessorizing more and I was wondering what are the key differences between a bandana and a neckerchief. Which one is more “versatile”? Are there particular brands, materials, patterns, etc. to be considered when wearing either or?

I’ve been looking at some good looking bandanas on sale over at kiriko, but because I don’t know much about these accessories, I’m not entirely confident about purchasing them. Thanks y’all.

no difference, I use those words interchangeably. Kiriko makes good stuff but the king at this price point is Kapital

Ya know, I’ve been meaning to pick up something from kapital, are there stores that y’all generally recommend for sales or something? Or should I look more second hand (specifically for bandanas/neckerchiefs)?

Their bandanas specifically I would get new, since for some reason aftermarket prices are above retail prices. A lot of stores carry them, like glasswing, canoe club, standard and strange, bodega, totem brand, etc. I would try to get one under $40

would also note that Kapital is generally excluded from sales - so if you see one you like just grab it.

i have both bandanas (usually 21" square) and kerchiefs (moreso scarves, around 30" square and use them interchangeably

if you're testing the waters I'd honestly find a "traditional" paisley at a gas station or somewhere for little and wear it in various states before getting a kap one or something similar
