A raglan sleeve is a type of sleeve whose distinguishing characteristic is to extend in one piece fully to the collar, leaving a diagonal seam from underarm to collarbone giving the garment a relatively undefined look.
Commonly seen in non-formal fashion, it is popular in sports and exercise wear.
It is named after Lord Raglan, the 1st Baron Raglan, who is said to have worn a coat with this style of sleeve after the loss of his arm in the Battle of Waterloo. The Raglan sleeve was invented by coat producer Aquascutum, for Lord Raglan to allow him room to use his sword in battle. It gave greater movement to the wearer, instead of the usual sleeve head which was prefixed.

Interesting info on the sleeve, though the measurement makes it a bit hard to compare to other jackets. However I have a feeling this cannot be compared to other jackets by the simple nature of it's uniqueness!!
@Giles wears Large?

So @Sam, how much longer?
-
This one is hard to judge. I assume that p2p should be bigger because of the insulation? The 25in on the xl seems big, but I'm almost always a size or two larger than Giles. Hmm.

hello, are the hand pockets insulated? thanks

Given what seems like a very favourable response here and in Japan, is there a decent chance of this being re-run next year @Giles?
