Raglan Sleeves

 

A raglan sleeve is one where the sleeve reaches all the way to the neckline, covering the shoulder. A lot of sports and active wear uses raglan sleeves because it gives a slightly looser fit, making movements easier, without being baggy. Another big advantage of the raglan sleeve is there are no seams on the shoulder so packs, purses, and other things with straps won't dig into the shoulder seam.
