Title: Which Way? Sentence Text on Both Long Sleeves.
Post by: Grape Ape on September 09, 2013, 09:59:59 AM

Which way do you all run sentence text on your long sleeves both sides?

I always run sleeves so that the text can be read from the side when the arm is raised (and pointing forward)
Right - start at the top
Left - start at the wrist

We go up the right - starting at the wrist- and down the left - starting at the shoulder

we do like frog says, the other way is upside down when your arms are extended.  We do a lot for the police, and if their guns are drawn, they want it right side up.

We run it right side up from wrist and left side down from top.
Good point about the police and any other group that is pointing a gun.
For visuals do you all think the way Frog does it is best or the other way.

Thanks for the quick replys.

This way, always.

The exception that proves the rule. You're right, fortunately no-one has asked for us to do it the wrong way in the last 20+ years  ;D

I have had folks ask, until they actually saw what they were going to get!
