A fletching system including a sleeve positionable about an outer surface of an arrow shaft and at least one archery vane mounted to an outer surface of the sleeve. The sleeve has an initial inner diameter greater than an outer diameter of the arrow shaft and the sleeve is shrinkable to secure the fletching system to the arrow shaft. Methods for constructing a fletching system include mounting a shrinkable sleeve and at least one archery vane on an outer surface of the shrinkable sleeve and also attaching the fletching system with respect to an archery arrow.
