It is forbidden for men to wear natural silk, except in cases of necessity, such as for treating itching or diseases alleviated by silk, or for the presence of lice. The permissibility in these cases is based on the allowance of using it for medical treatment, and this applies specifically to natural silk. As for artificial silk, it does not share the same rulings as natural silk, and its use is permissible without restriction.
