Clothing measurements
Sleeve length
The length of the sleeve from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
Most garment size charts measure sleeve length from the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve. Some shirt makers measure from the centre back of the neck instead, which gives a much larger number.
Because both methods are common, a good size chart says where the sleeve length is measured from.
