Why Do Running Shirts Have Thumb Holes?

Many hoodies, sweaters, bottoming shirts, running tops, and cycling tops have thumb holes. We chose to incorporate these into some of our running shirt designs because we think they are great. This is a good decision when you want to choose a long sleeve running top with thumb holes. However, we noticed that some people would ask such a question: What is the thumb hole on the long sleeve running tops with thumb holes? What does it do? What is the reason for the thumb hole in the long sleeve running tops with thumb holes?

 

1. The warmth of the long sleeve running tops with thumb holes

 

On a cold morning, nothing is more annoying than being wrapped in warmth but allowing snow or even cold air to enter your gloves or arms, because your long sleeve running top with thumb holes has been turned up and the space between your forearms and gloves has been exposed to the coldness. The thumb hole is an instant solution to prevent any gaps.

 

Many people remember to punch thumb holes in their school pullovers or running tops, usually because they were wearing thin clothes, and the sleeves are pulled over their hands to keep warm. The ready-made thumb hole is much neater than the one made by yourself. When you put another layer (such as a jacket) on a pullover or sweater, the thumb hole also allows you to dress more easily without having to roll up your sleeves.
