How To Roll Up Shirt Sleeves - 3 Ways To Fold Mens Dress Shirt Sleeve - Male Style Advice
About this video
Centeno demonstrates three methods for rolling up dress shirt sleeves: the basic roll, the master roll, and the AFIA roll. He discusses the practical advantages of each technique and explains his preference for rolling sleeves below the elbow based on visual proportions and the rule of thirds.
Key takeaways
- Centeno identifies three sleeve rolling techniques with different levels of ease and visual appeal: the basic roll (intuitive but constrictive), the master roll (simpler with less constriction, especially effective with contrasting cuff colors), and the AFIA roll (allows airflow below the elbow)
- Centeno argues that rolling sleeves below the elbow creates better visual proportions by following the rule of thirds, appearing more polished than rolling above the elbow
- Centeno recommends rolling above the elbow primarily when doing physical work, and below the elbow when relaxing or seeking a more refined casual appearance
