ABSTRACT:
A sleeve holder for securing a drawn-up sleeve of a garment is described. Also described is the sleeved garment into which the sleeve holder is incorporated. The sleeve holder has an epaulet strap which is secured to the shirt at the shoulder and projects down the sleeve. Cooperating connectors operate such that when the wearer pulls up the sleeve the connectors engage and hold the sleeve in the drawn-up position. When the wearer wants to return the sleeve to its fully extended normal position, the connectors are disengaged and the sleeve falls to its normal length. The connectors can be cooperating button and button hold, snap elements or, preferably, hook-and-loop fabric strips, especially when oriented at right angles to each other. Use of the sleeve holder prevents a sleeve from interfering with the wearer's activities or becoming soiled or entangled during those activities.
