Maybe I should invent socks with some kind of strap to keep them from sliding down.
Good friend's dad had a wooden leg. He used thumb tacks.

Maybe I don't understand the intended purpose for them but they come in handy when I am layering. They keep my sleeves from pushing up when I throw a jacket or hoodie on over the shirt with the provided thumb holds, ya just gotta use them for a second or two. Layering? Like building a cake? Maybe, never really built a cake though

Y’all have cake in Montana? I think that's what Mr.Olson refers to as Cow Crack. Jim says it cost a lot this year.

You must not be much taller than 6’. I’m 6’4” with long arms. Most of my base abd mid layers have those cutouts. Keeps my sleeves where the should be and not up at my elbows. Maybe I should invent socks with some kind of strap to keep them from sliding down. that was invented a century ago. ![[Linked Image from i.pinimg.com]](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c8/84/e1/c884e1502f35475798c4d69b6aafc3d3.jpg) My Grandfather 1902-1997 wore those every day.

Provides overlap between your sleeve and gloves. When you pull your glove on, the sleeves don't push up. What is the purpose of the overlap? gloves, using trekking poles, keep sleeves in place when layering. sheesh

I recently bought some hi-vis long sleeve shirts. They have thumb holes in the sleeves. What the cock functional purpose do they serve? Provide a little warmth to my first thumb knuckle? Work great for skiing.
The way life should be.

They serve no purpose for the average person! They evolved from children's clothing. Did they sell adult oneszzes, where you purchased them?

I have a sweatshirt like this. I recently developed a thumb hole delete mod and would be willing to share the process for a modest fee. For those that have untuckit shirts and wish to find a way around the casual entrapment, I have also developed methods to overcome this disadvantage as well. Any ideas on how to fix these pesky loops on my pants? They catch on everything.

my new carhartt zip hoodie jacket has a multipocket design that would enrage the dalai lama. Why can't it just be a simple normal front pocket? Its ridiculous. They make pants that way now too. Jim, have you heard about this omicron? They say it crossed state lines, can you believe that? State lines! it's very serious.
Something clever here.

Provides overlap between your sleeve and gloves. When you pull your glove on, the sleeves don't push up. What is the purpose of the overlap? Keep your wrists warm when you work in the cold.. or protect from sun, heat, cuts. We make our sheet metal workers use something similar. These are thin "performance" T-shirts. They may provide a little UV protection, but they aren't going to stop a cut and they don't have any insulation value. But I don't find the opening in my boxer briefs useful either. It's like trying run my dick through a maze. What hard to pull 1/2" of dick through 3/4" of clothing? Must be a m fer to squat in the snow!

I’m a fan of them. They’re a lighter version of fingerless gloves & they do get rid of the gap between gloves & sleeves if you’re active in inclement weather.
I used wristies for all the above for years. Hint fleece type suck, thin polypro types were my fave.
I used to average 50-60 days in the field, no matter the weather,lots of rain & I mean lots, snow, it didn’t matter, we were out glassing, rowing, killing, butchering or packing.
All I cared about was what worked .
I may be a has been, but I’m not a never was.
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.
