Arm Warmers

Cycling arm warmers are worth their weight in gold during those cold, dark months. With the arms not working nearly as much as the legs, your top-half can begin to feel the chill fast. Roll out wearing bike arm warmers and simply peel them off and tuck them into your cycling jacket when you’ve warmed up. For premium, light-weight, advanced performance bicycle arm warmers, shop Santini and BBB Cycling base layers here.

Whether you’re after cycling sleeves for sun protection or cycling sleeves for warmth, what features should you look for? The best cycling arm warmers typically include features such as:

  • Form-fitting. Cycling sleeves should look and feel like second skin so there is no loose material or the top begins to sag.
  • Raw cut hem. Terrific for preventing chafing.
  • Elastic gripper. A must for keeping the cycling arm warmers in place and to prevent it falling down the limb.
  • Fleece lining or similar toasty material. To encourage and maintain warmth around the arm; essential for all base layers and warmers.
  • Wind and water-repellent. A great additional feature when available.
  • Reflective panels/logos. Ideal for winter riding when you need to be as easy to see as possible.
