What are cycling sun sleeves?
Cycling sleeves for sun protection are a little like stylish socks for your arms! They start at the wrist and end at the top of your upper arm (elastic silicon keeps them in place). Designed to quickly and easily roll on or off as need be, these are very popular bike clothing accessories.
When not in use, they fold up compactly so you can tuck them away in your jersey pocket. Made from materials designed to guard against harmful UV rays, arm sleeves are essential for the bike and provide cycling sun protection all day long. Unlike sunscreen, you won’t need to keep reapplying as the hours tick by! Affordable, practical and hard-working, what’s not to love about cycling arm coolers for sun protection?
Do cycling sun sleeves really work as arm coolers?
Customers occasionally ask us, do arm coolers really work? Think about base layers, which are worn in summer and winter. Why? Because they are made from materials designed to keep the skin warm in winter and cool in summer.
Cycle sleeves for sun protection function in the same way. Made from a lightweight fabric that is extra soft on the skin, they wick away moisture and encourage the skin to breathe and stay cool in the summer heat.
