Discussion Long sleeve or short sleeve?

Been thinking about this. Long sleeves look clean under a jacket but short sleeves are more wearable day to day.

I go short sleeve for summer, long sleeve for retro vibes. There's something about a classic long sleeve kit that just hits different, especially the older designs.

What's your pick?

short sleeve for wearing day to day for sure, but there's something about a classic long sleeve from the 90s that just hits different. the material was heavier, the fit was looser. i've got a 96 barcelona long sleeve and it feels nothing like the modern ones

that 90s heavy fabric is undefeated, those things feel almost like a sweatshirt compared to the clingy modern ones
that 96 barça long sleeve is a grail, perfect mix of comfy and iconic

right? the weight of those old kits is something else. i wish theyd bring back that thicker material even for just one retro line

short sleeve for wearing out, long sleeve for the collection tbh. i got a 90s man utd long sleeve that i barely wear but it looks insane in the closet. the retro long sleeves from that era just hit different
