sleeve
Garment's arm covering
A sleeve is the part of a garment that covers the arm, from shoulder to wrist or somewhere in between.
Sleeves vary in length and style: short sleeves, long sleeves, rolled-up sleeves.
A sleeve is also a protective covering shaped like a tube: a record sleeve, a cable sleeve.
To have something up your sleeve is to hold it in reserve as a secret advantage.
To wear your heart on your sleeve is to display emotions openly.
