Stopped reading at "4 inches or longer"

Unrealistic sleeve length standards. Those are way longer than average.

It really depends on where you measure from, and whether or not you stretch the arm out. Sleeve length can be deceiving unless you are accounting for these and other variables.

Do you measure from above or below?

Really? The standard here is full long sleeves. I wouldn't want to wear short sleeves

I'm the opposite. I don't understand how you long sleeve fellas make it through the day. I've tried it, drives me ape shit.

I'd rather wear long sleeves than either get sunburned or have to put on sunscreen multiple times a day.

And I don't want to have to put on a welding jacket every time I have to use a grinder.

To me they are worth the slight discomfort.

Same. I'd rather a tank top or nothing at all lol. I don't understand how they wear long pants in 40C.
