Shirt Sleeves
« on: January 23, 2013, 07:04:04 PM »

So I reckon from about mid-90's onward the 3/4 sleeve shirt became the fashion. It seems however, that proper short sleeve shirts are making a comeback. Despite this, most teamwear companies still seem to supply there 'short sleeve' option as closer to 3/4 with sleeves coming to and often past the elbow. Anyone found any good suppliers for proper short sleeves? Would any of our sponsors consider altering their range to reflect the current fashion?

I have an Adidas shirt with proper short sleeves. I've been looking for super-short sleeves, ones that only come half way-ish down the bicep.

Price largely depends on what you want? It's all bespoke, with a 'normal' shirt option either sublimated or stitched, both with a proper short sleeve. Example pictures are the bottom kit below, CAMRA CC.

Or if you ar feeling adventorous, the Castor CC style 'pro fit' is sublimated only, its pictured in the top 2 kits below and really hugs your biceps, as well as everything else!

Thought i would upload some better pictures of the kits i posted before, as well as the kit of the other club i play midweek T20 and occasional Sunday friendlies for.

Castor & Ailsworth CC (2010-2011)





Castor & Ailsworth CC (2012-x)





The Campaign For Real Ale CC (Peterborough Branch)

We got our clubs gear from cotton traders last season all 'proper' shirt sleeves, I'm fancying going the other way now and seeing if I can get a long sleeve top! Was bloody freezing last season! Haha

I actually like the 3/4 length sleeves.  I can't stand long sleeves, and I find I'm always scuffing my elbows up with short sleeves.

I use the GN Matrix shirt, and they have a decent short sleeve.

My Sunday team use the old style Dukes shirts, which I am not a massive fan of.

Yeah that's another brand that I like, my rep team uses them - very comfy.
