Hmm, good question. They would have to be shortened at the cuff, as this is a raglan sleeve item. I can feel a small seam allowance attaching the ribbing to the sleeve, so I imagine it would be possible to remove that, hem the sleeve, and then reattach it.


Sounds like a fair bit of work! I know measuring sleeve length from the shoulder is tough with raglan sleeves - would it be possible to get a sleeve length from the center back (a la dress shirts) for the size Medium Gant Varsity?

Thanks,
Harry

Sure thing, here's the measurements from the center back and the seam under the sleeve. We've sold quite a bit of these in the store and I haven't seen the sleeve length be an issue yet. Often times, the sleeves are very long on the Gant Michael Bastian pieces, but pretty normal on the Rugger items. They're quite slim too, so even if they're a little long it might not be a problem when you're actually wearing it.

Medium
From center back: approx 35.5"
From seam under the sleeve: 22.25"

Large
From center back: approx 36"
From seam under the sleeve: 22.5"

That looks so dope. Why didn't any of my teachers dress this way?

Love it when the Quebecois invade the Garden. Love it more when they go home saying, "Je suis mauvais!"

Epaulet shirt, pants, belt.
I really need to buy more of your gear!
It's incredibly wearable.

Hi Mike,

I noticed that you're clearing out the existing CPO jackets but you also mentioned a few pages back that you have material on order for a new batch. Are you tweaking the style/colors or is everything staying the same?

I actually have the navy one and wear it all the time, so I'm more curious if anything is changing about the next run.

Thanks!
