I've seen people who leave the last sleeve button on a suit open. That seems like a pretty douchebag move in the office, but I suppose it could be useful at the club or whatever for attracting chicks with an attention to detail in their gold digging operations. Thoughts on the practice? Incidentally, when I was searching for a picture for the post a lot of gay stuff came up for some reason. Please factor that into your analysis.







Gotta admit, didn't even know
Gotta admit, didn't even know there were suits that had actual buttons down there around the sleeves...

I've never heard of the sleeve button being left undone. Did some idiot get his sleeve buttons confused with the main buttons on his coat and just undo all of the bottom ones? Or is it supposed to symbolize that you have a nice/custom suit with functional cuff buttons?

I leave mine buttoned. Seems douchey to draw attention in that manner. Maybe if I was a VP or MD though...

This will look douchey around the office. Anyone that doesn't know why it's unbuttoned will think you lost a button on your suit, and anyone who knows why it's unbuttoned will think you're being flashy and obnoxious.
Hi, Eric Stratton, rush chairman, damn glad to meet you.

Leave them buttoned at the office or you will look like a clown. One guy undoes his where I work, but he also fails to: tie his tie down to his belt, button his top button on his shirt, pull his tie up to his collar, and keep his socks pulled up. He also wears peak lapels on his coats, despite being under the age of 55 and having no gray hair, wears very ostentatious pocket squares, and aspires to own a watch the size of a hockey puck. Don't do it.
