Long-sleeve T-shirts are an underrated wardrobe staple. “Short-sleeve tees may get all the love,” explains stylist and fashion designer Jordan Page, the curator of the fashion-history Instagram account @veryadvanced, “but the long-sleeve tee is often the more appropriate choice, for both style and function.” When it comes to style, Page explains that a long-sleeve tee “can look classier than short-sleeve ones” by making an outfit feel a tad more formal, even if, at the end of the day, it’s still a T-shirt. There’s also function in the added coverage of the longer sleeves, which Page says make the shirts “more comfortable for layering because you don’t get that direct, sometimes itchy on-skin contact from outer layers made of more textured fabrics like wool.”
