Abstract: A shirt cuff expander for facilitating the expansion of a shirt cuff. The shirt cuff expander comprises a first and second end connected by a connecting member. The connecting member may be a band-like member having first and second ends and may optionally include an elastic portion. The cuff expander first end may have a button attached to it as its fastening mechanism or another type of obstruction that prevents the extender from slipping through a button-hole. The second end may have, a similar obstruction to prevent slippage through a button-hole or may have a button-hole stitched into its second end. This arrangement allows the first and second ends to be fastened to a button cuff or a link cuff or any other type of shirt cuff.
