Are Your Shirt Sleeves Too Long? Here's How to Fix Them

About this video

McGoff addresses the common problem of shirt sleeves being too long for shorter men. He explains two approaches: preventing the issue by purchasing custom shirts or shopping specialty brands designed for shorter frames, and fixing existing shirts through tailoring, layering, rolling sleeves, faux French cuffs, sleeve garters, or wearing outer layers.

Key takeaways

• McGoff recommends specialty brands like Ashen & Erie as a convenient alternative to custom shirts, as they design clothing specifically for shorter men with proportionate sleeve lengths
• McGoff argues that tailoring existing shirts is the best permanent solution, typically costing $10-$25 and being more economical than buying new clothes
• McGoff suggests practical quick fixes for long sleeves including rolling them up, layering with jackets or sweaters, or using vintage sleeve garters
