How to Roll Your Sleeves Up (and What NOT to Do)
About this video
McGoff teaches multiple methods for rolling up shirt sleeves, from simple two-turn rolls to more complex techniques, while highlighting common mistakes to avoid. He provides specific recommendations for different arm lengths and sleeve preferences, emphasizing that the goal is to achieve a clean, comfortable roll that either sits below or above the elbow.
Key takeaways
- McGoff identifies mistakes to avoid: The One and Done, The Pull Up, The Twist, and The Elbow Bender, as these look sloppy or create discomfort
- McGoff recommends The Two Turn for quick, casual rolling, The J. Crew Roll for visual interest with a visible cuff, and The Three Turn for a basic method most guys already use
- McGoff suggests The J. Crew and a Half or The Three Turn Half for shorter-armed men, and The Quadruple Roll for very short arms or longer sleeves, emphasizing avoiding twists at each turn
