I went to my tailor and he said that my sleeves are exactly a 37 in terms of length. So this being said I have two questions about sleeve length of dress shirts.
1. If I were to buy a Brooks Brothers dress shirt with 37 sleeve length, would washing it in cold water and hang drying still cause the sleeves to shrink a bit?
2. I have seen some shirts that do not specify a sleeve length, but rather are labeled as "16/41" (16 being my neck size). Does the 41 have anything to do with sleeve length?
Thanks in advance!
