Name of the sleeves

Jul 05, 2005 21:34

I was watching 王小帅's "青红" (Shanghai Dream) on DVD today, and am wondering what the "additional sleeves" that some of the characters wear are called.

It's a pair of cloth sheaths worn over one's sleeves, probably to prevent them getting dirty when one is doing housework, like washing dishes etc.

Anyone knows what the "sleeves" are called? Thanks.
