Me too, but the sleeves from the interview still seem consistent with the Raiders sleeves, in that the left sleeve is lower than the right sleeve.

It is just the difference between the bent elbow vs. the straight arm. You can count the number of rolls to get the evenness worked out.

Of course. Why would someone want to look the same all the time :rolling:

If you roll them and then iron the sleeves that'll help keep the creases in place and help prevent unrolling.

This cap shows how flat the rolls are, every picture I've seen of people wearing there gear the rolls are bunchy :-k

You can use the photo you posted as well as other scenes. Roll the full cuff as it appears in the film, just below the elbow, but not above. It's easier to roll them when you are not wearing the shirt.

Interestingly, IJ did not roll the cuffs in the first scenes of CS. I kept thinking, something is different here....the skin color, shades or gray and the sleeves almost created a different IJ, certainly with all due respect, just different look. ;)
I knew we'd get screen saves of screen accurate sleeve rolling before this thread was through, lol. We need more theories and more screen caps and more debate and research, can someone ask Mr. Ford about this the next time they run across him? :- I find this interesting but it is still humorous.

Looks like Indy's lost his rolling mojo in his old age, they look like mine now. :D
