The latest look on the street is extremely extended sleeves. Right now, it's all about volume, but the next big thing in the sleeve-trend realm (sure, we're making that a thing) is sleeves that are so long, they're almost impractical. Almost.

Below, we rounded up six ingenious snaps that will convince you to leave your sleeves uncuffed and long.
