I dont know the correct name for this type of shoulder. The seams run diagonally untill they reach the armpit, so there is no armhole per se.

What are your thoughts on this type of shoulder? Does it fit certain body styles more appropriately?

Raglan. Nice for raincoat/overcoats. Sometimes sweaters.

Three FooPoints to the first Inner Circle SF member who orders a bespoke raglan suit or odd jacket. Of course, I reserve the right to withhold said reward if it turns out Vox already owns such a thing.

That's like 0.007 Andypoints. You gotta do better than that.

They used to be quite the thing about two to three hundred years ago.

It's a two piece raglan shoulder. There's also three piece raglan shoulder with top center seam.

(Is this 'Inner Circle" bunch self-anointed or elected? Is there an initiation? Do they wear special regalia trimmed in ermine? Are they grandiosely self-delusional? Do they get the purdy gurl cheerleaders like the Hitler Youth jocks in teen movies? Are they all Skull & Boners? Is there a secret handshake? 34th Degree? Are hoi polloi S-Forvmites required to prostrate themselves before an 'IC' when encountering whilst promenading the boulevards? H'ain't seen that SF powers-that-be bestowed approbation twixt any sobriquet & avatar. How does one discern one of these Bilderburgian Inner Circleian? Can you be more specific? Or, are some folks just full of self-referencing fecal matter. Enquiring minds want to know.)

I asked similar questions about the secret anointed membership at AAAC and Kabbaz cyber-assassinated me.

I had a classmate in College who had a Raglan sleeve sport coat in houndstooth.
Except for the sleeves, it was an unremarkable Ivy sack, which is what everyone
wore on campus at the time. Have never seen once since.
