Spanish term or phrase: mangas desmontables
a lo que une su versatilidad ya que, desmontando las mangas, se convierte en un chaleco.

En realidad, utilizo 'mangas desmontables' para presentar el producto. Tengo opciones, pero quisiera que alguien me diese el término familiar con que las designan.

Thanks!

neutral  Paul Lambert: detachable and removable are interchangeable here i guess - but detachable is much more common from my experience.
