    I hope this description helps, let me know if you need clarification.

    Thanks, sydnie7. What I was wondering is if the lace cuff would completely cover an argyle cuff, or if they are usually not worn that far back over the sleeve.

    Or do I have the whole concept wrong, and the lace just sticks out from under the jacket sleeve like a shirt sleeve? If that's it, that makes more sense. Then how far out of the end of the jacket sleeve would the lace typically extend?

    I'm not sure how they work.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
