No cuff

I so often see a blouse or other top that I really like...until I see the type of cuff that is on the sleeve. We could be talking short sleeve or long sleeve tops. I really dislike the "unfinished" sleeve (no cuff...just flopping in the breeze). To me, that cheapens the look. I would rather pay a couple extra dollars for a finished look.

What's your preference?

No cuff

Regular shirt sleeve single button cuff

Double/Triple button cuff

Roll up with tab cuff

Ribbed cuff

Elastic cuff

French cuff

Ruffled cuff

Cuff link cuff

Other??

My preference is "any cuff is better than none!" Thanks.

I can't stand a long sleeve, and must wrap up the cuff to my elbows, allowing my forearms and bracelets to show.  

So, my answer is the wrap up to the elbow cuff.

Me too and they never iron right either.  You can't get a proper crease down the sleeve because the tab is in the way.

For every day tee shirts, I only buy elbow length sleeves.  Long sleeved tee-shirts have to have a ribbed cuff - sweaters too and for button downs I prefer a 2 button cuff.

I love the elbow length sleeves on tees also, but they are so difficult to find!

@Daisy, Really?  One vote for the "no cuffs"!!  You must like that freedom!  I have such thin forearms that I prefer to hide them. The no cuff shirts just flap around on me.

Hi @Tinkrbl44,

Even though I like cuffs, I often push my sleeves up to my elbow. Right now I have a really silly looking sunburn on just one arm from pushing my sleeves up at an event I attended on Saturday.

I LOVE that sleeve .... most short sleeves look like an after-thought miniscule scrap of material sewn on, which invariably make a woman's arm look terrible.

I prefer a double button cuff.  

Roll tab are annoying.  I don't roll my shirts up that far.

I just bought a new supply - found them at Macy's.  They're nice, pima cotton.

Thanks for the tip! I love pima cotton too. They sound ideal!
