What are armbands and why should you use them?

Armbands came into wide use, especially in the USA, in the latter half of the 19th century when men's ready-made shirts came in a single (extra long) sleeve length. Sleeve armbands or garters allow men to customise sleeve lengths and keep their cuffs from becoming soiled while working or at the correct length when worn under a jacket.  They also keep the shirt in the correct place on the wrist.   Formally Suited offer 2 types of arm bands in a silver or gold plate style. They are elasticated and therefore comfortable on the arm.
