Measure shirt sleeve length correctly

Sleeve Length

  • Path: From the shoulder seam along the outer edge to the end of the cuff.
  • Important: Measure both sleeves separately (anatomical differences!).

Lay the sleeve out flat. Measure from the shoulder point (intersection of shoulder/sleeve) along the outer edge to the end of the cuff. Since arms are often of unequal length, you can specify two different values for a made-to-measure shirt.

Important Note:

The following instructions are exclusively for measuring an existing shirt that fits you well (finished measurements). These values are not identical to your body measurements, as a shirt requires a comfort allowance.

Your Design Freedom:

When ordering a new shirt, you can modify the values. Do you want a tighter silhouette? Reduce the waist width by 1–2 cm. Do you need room for a wristwatch? Increase the corresponding cuff width (usually left).
