Back in the days before Covid 19 decimated the travel industry I used to travel to HK. I had a tailor there that made me shirts for a nice low price. Every shirt I made, be it white or colored, had place for cufflinks. Some also had attached buttons in the holes meant for cufflinks. However I always wore cufflinks. It adds a certain panache to otherwise drab weekday clothing edited
I stopped wearing them on a regular basis when they started making attorneys (as well as all other non-judges) go through the metal detectors a t the CT courthouses. It’s enough to have to remove belts and wristwatches, removing and replacing cufflinks was just an annoyance to be avoided.
The only time I currently wear cufflinks is at Black or White tie events, and since Covid I have attended none.
