To lengthen jacket sleeve on already exist working button wholes, you can add the fifth button at front to balance it up - tom ford does it often. Great video anyway - keep posting, please.
First time I hear of the thumb to wrist measurement, it sounds very convenient. I've mostly read of using the end wrist bone as a reference as there is usually about 1-2cm from where the wrist bone ends and where the wrist widens, which is where the shirt cuff would rest.
The greatest thing about these fine details is that most people that ur gonna meet probably wouldnt even care how short or too long ur jacket sleeve length is or ur shirts. Even the ladies most probably wouldnt care. But, you and i, people of culture, yeaa we know whats up, other men of culture knew too whats up so yeah, i love this ❤
Would have loved to see how much the shirt sleeve hangs unbuttoned. To see approximately how mich excess fabric is needed in length. Thanks for your videos!
That one you show where the sleeves are too long is the one that looks better when you move your arms, stays in place. I bet a longer shirt sleeve on that one will look perfect without any mods to the jacket.
Excellent video, clear presentation and reasoning. Do wonder about the advise to not shorten sleeves at the shoulder, something a lot of tailors (here in London) offer. Why not? Thx
Taking sleeves up from the shoulder requires much more work for a tailor, if is a minimal procedure taking up from the bottom is always much easier and quicker.
I have the same problem with a vintage cotton jacket by Canali: when I start wearing it, the sleeve length is borderline acceptable but after an hour or two it basically shows the whole cuff. Needs to be taken to an alterations tailor. Thanks for the video!
Best video I’ve seen on this topic: clear and sensible
❤ Of all the videos I've seen on RUclips regarding ideal shirt sleeve length, this is the best.
Thank you for your guidance.
Some great tips! Especially that diagonal adjustment for jacket sleeves with functional buttons. Thanks!
It was such a joy listening to your wisdom and proper english!
Ok the measuring from tip of the thumb are very interesting. 👍
a comprehensive guide that lasts 07:49. This is perfect :)
I was just trying to explain proper sleeve length to my teenage son this past weekend. Now I can show him this video. Thank you.
Thank you very much for sharing.

How close is too close to the edge for jacket sleeve buttons?

Thanks for the video!
