Can I convert My French Cuffs to Barrel Cuffs
Many having tried French cuffs and deciding to be a bit more casual decided to barrel down
Shirt Users,
You have the option to make your Frech cuffs into barrel cuffs and keep the same fabric.
Every month we received many shirts from new customers wanting their French cuff shirts converted to barrel cuffs. The input we received is that they were perceived as to formal in the particular environment which they were in at the moment. Also loosing the cuff links did not give them much incentive to keep wearing.
The French Cuff to Barrel Cuff controversy is ongoing. There is no right or wrong. Whats good for you at the moment is all that is important.
A little food for thought is that you can give yourself a little extra sleeve length when converting to the barrel cuff. Sometimes up to an inch or so.
Before making your decision, realize that your Barrel Cuffs will also have buttonholes on each side of the cuff tipical of the so called Convertible Cuff will can be buttoned or used with cuff links.
Many men feel that converting was a great Idea otherwise those shirts would be sitting in the closet.
Hope the information is usefull
Best wishes,
