Short answer
Cuffs cut to the true wrist with the taper carried up the sleeve.
Why it happens
Wrist circumference below the sleeve-block minimum.
Why ready-to-wear cannot fix it
Size charts grade uniformly; thin wrists is a personal geometry. A block adjusted in one place pulls in another — which is why the correction must exist in the pattern, not in the fitting-room mirror.
How the house drafts for it
Cuffs cut to the true wrist with the taper carried up the sleeve. The correction is recorded in your Fit Passport, so every later commission starts from it automatically.
Where it matters most
This correction carries most for: shirt. It is reviewed at every fitting, in every city, for every garment.
