Melanie Nassar May 22, 2008:
I really think "Ärmelansatz" refers to the length of the "hint" of a sleeve. In some cases it could mean the sleeve line, but then the "kurzer...Ärmelansatz" used here would not make too much sense.

Sorry can't give the word, but Kim Metzger's link (seebelow) actually shows pic of an "Ärmelansatz" and it isn't the sleeve, it's the little decorative seam joining the sleeve to the t-shirt

cap sleeves

Shorter than short sleeves, check Google images. And since the German already says Capsleeve, you probably can't go too far wrong with this.

"maybe" and thinking about it a wee bit more could be "short sleeves" as you yourself say :)
