These arm sleeves are ideal when wearing a short-sleeve t-shirt or polo, protecting your arms and hands from UV rays. Designed for individuals with sensitive skin, and sold as a pair, they come in two styles: with or without thumbholes. A thumbhole is a sleeve opening for the thumbs.

Available in two styles:

With thumbholes: designed with a thumbhole, this style allows slipping your thumb through the sleeve, offering added protection for the back of your hand and palm while covering your arm fully from the bicep to the knuckles. It can also be worn comfortably without using the thumbhole feature.

No thumbholes: there is no opening on the side of the sleeve for the thumb. This style covers the full length of your arm from your bicep to your wrist.

Reviews

Great product

"This product is great quality and protects from the sun. They are super lightweight and you get what you pay for which is quality. I bought a different brand prior but the sleeve felt constricted and it made my skin heat up. These stayed in place, did not constrict my arm and I did not sweat in them. I like that I can wear them either as a handless sleeve or as a hand protector. Will purchase more products from this brand"

— Natalie A. (5/5)

Great product /customer service

"I needed to change a product and customer services were on it straight away. They answered my query so quickly. Replacement took a little longe as I guess it comes to UK from Australia but I was confdent it was on its way!"

My sleeves are wonderful. Not

"My sleeves are wonderful. Not only do they work so well, they are light weight. You can pack them very easily when traveling. Very affordable. You can easily buy a couple of pairs. And lots of colors to choose from. I highly recommend buying them."

— Linda M. (5/5)

yes!

"perfect way to protect without the bulk of a whole extra layer! your chance of skin cancer increases over 50% everytime you burn and this is a great way to avoid that risk!"

— Kennedy D. (5/5)

Not nearly as weird as they sounded!

"So much easier than having to keep reapplying sunscreen after every hand wash and no horrid sticky feeling of sunscreen on the arms (or the sunscreen stains on the edges of the tee-shirt sleeves). Comfortable, great for driving , hiking and cycling."

— Jane T. (5/5)

Great Coverage for active lifestyle

"Great for quick coverage in the water surfing or on the field playing sports. Comfort forst fit, they dont slip down during use. I surf with these and they stay in place and clean up well. Quality material that lasts, still feels the same after a summer of use."

— cheynne m. (5/5)

Surprisingly cool

"Given the thickness of the material I thought it was going to be hotter that my previous Lycra sleeves but I was wrong! The natural materials breathe much better."

— James B. (5/5)

I’m been using this product

"I’m been using this product for the last 10 years now specially during summer and even winter time fits perfect and very durable ."

— Jose A. (5/5)
