Review on HOPESHINE Arm Cooling Sleeves UPF 50+ UV Protection Cycling Outdoor Sports 3-Pairs by Douglas Holla

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good For Small Arms!

I've had so much trouble finding these kinds of things to cover my tattoos at work, largely because I am very thin. I'm a size xs/00 woman, and my arm measures just 9" around at the point just above my bicep (where these sleeves would ideally be placed at the top).All of the ones I've tried have been hit-or-miss in terms of fitting, and few have had elastic that lasts for more than a few wears. They don't grip, they fall down the arm, they get stretched out, feel cheap, and start fraying before the end of my very first shift wearing them sometimes.But these have not been like that at all! They fit my arm perfectly, stay put as much as you can expect fabric like this to during a food service shift, and they feel so much more well-made. The fabric is thicker without being stuffy and so far they haven't shown any sign of wearing down yet. The colors are noticeably more saturated than other brands, I've tried, too, although I do wish there were more color options.I'm sure you could find better, but on a budget these are a really good option, especially if other brands don't fit your arms.

Pros
  • Can be worn on either arm
Cons
  • Fabric may cause discomfort on arm hair or tattoos
