Elixir Golf Sun Protection Arm Cooling Sleeve

These fit well and seem to do the job. I recommend them

Impressions/Sun Protection:Superb sun protection. I did not receive any sun on the covered portion of my arm in high altitude sun while shooting for hours. Everything else got burnt. I choose not to wear sunscreen to compare how effective these are to bare skin.Tattoo coverage:I am a health care worker and needed these to cover my arm tattoo. I have grey and black. The lighter color grey pair does a great job masking the tattoo. If you have bright colors on your tattoo I would recommend the black color to fully conceal your ink as the lighter colors reveal a slight bit of color when your arm is bent. It was not enough for my patients or co-workers to notice mine/ but if you want absolute concealment get black.Temperature:The sleeves are amazing at temperature regulation. The moment I put them on it felt like I had rubbed menthol on my arm. They are very cooling! My arms never feel hot during rigorous activity. In fact, my arms stayed cooler than any other part of my body!Comfort:Extremely comfortable! I wear these for 12 hour shifts at the hospital and forget they are even there. The compression is perfect/ not too tight like some of the brands with more nylon/ and not loose at all. They simply stay put. In a 12 hr shift I only have to adjust the top part of my arm minimally twice. There are NO seems in these so I never feel “hot” spots anywhere on my arm.Activities:I Mountain Bike/ Rock Climb/ Shoot/ Fight/ Fish/ Hike in these and they were great in ALL activities.AMAZING!! Worth every penny. If you are like me you have scoured over reviews on MANY arm compression bands and want the best bang for your buck.My requirements: Needed to be able to cover an arm tattoo/ Needed to be very resistant to the sun (high altitude sun)/ Needed them to be comfortable for up to 12hrs of continuous wear/ Needed them to be extremely comfortable/ needed them to stay put during strenuous activity.

I'm a longshoreman in southern california. I drive a truck around a shipping terminal. I would slather sunscreen all over my arms to prevent sunburn, but the sun would still beat on my skin and make me hot.I got these sleeves and they are GREAT. I wish I had gotten them years ago. I wore them on a day when it was close to 90 degrees. When I have the sleeves on, my arms are MUCH cooler. The fabric wicks sweat away and when I'm moving in my truck, I can feel the moving air cool my arms. Also, they do a good job of blocking UV rays cause I don't show any signs of sunburn. I haven't tried washing them yet. Personally I don't really care if they get dirty. Once they get super dirty I'll probably just toss them and order another pair. At only $10, I don't mind buying a new pair every couple months.

We are professional tennis officials so we spend more time outdoors in the sun than we would like. These sun sleeves are a really great way to keep the sun off your skin all the way down to your wrists furthermore you can soak them in cool water and they will help keep you cool as the H20 evaporates. Another good thing is that these sun sleeves come in a wide variety of colors. This blue that I am reviewing matches the color of the USTA National Uniform Shirt perfectly. I have several pairs of these sun sleeves in blue, grey, black and white. I drive a Batmobile (Polaris Slingshot) and I wear these when I take it on longer trips again to protect my arms from the sun exposure.Now one word of caution - these are lightweight sun sleeves. They are soft but they do develop some pilling, pulls and so forth. A pair tends to last us some four to six months, longer if we aren't up in the tall umpires chair a lot and shorter if we are. So the bottom line is that we buy the sun sleeves from this manufacturer in fairly significant quantities. They are comfortable and they are affordable.. I tried sun sleeves form four or five other manufacturers (some costing as much as $30 per pair) before finally trying these. For our purposes they are perfect and I can recommend them highly just don't expect them to be a two or three year item. :-)

These were bought because I had to cover my tats at work (no longer! they changed the policy). They are thin, and the material is like that of women's tights/pantyhose, therefore it can snag and run. Don't wash them in the washing machine, unless you have one of those little mesh bags that some gals put their fancy undies in (maybe your wife or g friend has one?). I hand washed them at first, then said F it, and put them in with my other work clothes. They were fine but pilled a bit, and one arm had snags but not from washing, just from working. If you have to look fancy and 'nice', maybe get some that are of a higher quality, smoother material. These were fairly inexpensive, and at my job customers only see me for about 3 minutes and are not concentrating their eyes on my arms, I don't think. I like them, they are warm enough and also cool enough. I think would be good for anyone who wants arm coverage like doing outdoor activities, or tat coverage where you don't have to look perfect.

Not worth it. Quality is very poor, also I request for return but it says verification failed, No one called or came for pickup.Worst experience, you unable to return this product, so don’t buy in first place.Genuine Review

A little bit tight for my arms but overall were comfortable, seemed to wick away the perspiration very well and protected my arms from the sun.

Buen material y bastante frescos, no son incómodos, son muy prácticos y el elástico no lastima los puedes traer todo el día sin ningún problema

- Si eres deportista y la mayor parte del tiempo la pasas bajo el sol y no quieres que tu piel se dañe, puedes protejerla con estas mangas que te permiten proteger tus brazos de los rayos UV, en experiencia personal, estas mangas siempre las uso cuando salgo en la tarde cuando el sol esta a todo lo que da, y no soy una persona a la cual le guste quemarse la piel, y estas mangas me permiten protejerme del sol y no sentir tan agresivo el calor que emite el sol, muy recomendable de mi parte, la entrega del producto fue rapida. (indica si te sirvio mi opinion hacia al producto)

These sleeves work well. They have no seam on their length and are long enough to cover your whole arm. They hold their elasticity after washing and stitching seems to stand up. Caution must be exercised if used for golf and looking in bushes for a ball, they snag easily.I would recommend this product.
