Belichick's Sleeve-Cutting Trend Takes Over Retail

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, known for his unconventional sideline fashion, has inadvertently sparked a unique retail trend: stores cutting the sleeves off sweatshirts to mimic his signature look.

Belichick's trademark sleeveless hoodie has been a staple of his coaching attire for years, becoming almost as recognizable as his strategic football prowess. Now, retailers are responding to fan demand by offering pre-cut sweatshirts that replicate the coach's minimalist style.
