The sweatshirt we print on has Raglan sleeves. They're named after Lord Raglan (below), the British Lord who was so murderously stubborn he wouldn't talk to a fellow commanding officer during the Crimean War and helped send the Light Brigade charging to towards a battery of Russian cannon - the infamous charge of the Light Brigade.
The dispute, with Lord Cardigan, was all over a woman if I remember correctly. Anyway, Raglan lost his arm and his tailor designed a new sleeve construction to help the Lord get dressed more easily.
