"The elite arm sleeves are surprisingly lightweight and comfortable. They seem very well made and I look forward to wearing them this summer."
"I have lymphedema and this arm sleeve is very comfortable while protecting my arm from the sun. I was looking for an alternative to my compression garment which becomes unbearable in the summertime. This sleeve keeps my arm cool and protected."
"The material feels lightweight, breathable, and soft against the skin, yet it provides great protection from the sun — perfect for long days outdoors. The UPF 50+ rating really gives peace of mind when I’m hiking or working."
"The Elite sleeves are nicely designed, comfortable and look good, too. Material soft, comfortable, wicked moisture and kept me cool while cycling and hiking"
"I live in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains in Albuquerque, NM at an elevation of over 6,000 ft. I walk/hike daily an average of 4 miles daily. These sleeves provide ideal protection in a fabric that is lightweight, breathable, and very comfortable."
"I really like the UPF 50 Elite Arm Sleeves from Solbari. I did have to exchange the medium for a large size but now they fit perfectly and are very comfortable. I like the way they lightly grip the tops of my arms so they won't slide down, yet aren't too tight either. I have a chronic medical condition that gets worse when I'm in the sun and these are perfect for summer - protect my skin but not heavy or hot."
"These are awesome. Barely feel it on my skin! Wearing regular long sleeved shirts during the summer months, trying to protect my skin was a nightmare and so hot! These have such a nice and cooling effect, all the while protecting ny skin from the sun."
"I find the arm sleeves comfortable to wear. Wearing them in hot weather is not a problem as the material is cool and light weight. The arm sleeves protect my very fair skin from the damaging rays and i know that i am safe and protected while i work."
"I decided I needed protection from the sun while I play my sport of croquet. I compete often and some day we play 5 games which could be up to 5-6 hours in the sun. I live the fabric of the the Elite sleeves, the medium size fits well. I also purchased a wide brim Outback Travel Hat which is perfect for my sport and travel. I appreciate the quality, style and protection that this hat provides too. So you could say I am definitely very happy with my Solbari purchases."
"The elite arm sleeves have proved invaluable, especially driving in the car. I always felt vulnerable with the sun beating down on my arms despite having sunscreen on. Having had a melanoma removed l know feel safer wearing these sleeves. I would highly recommend them. Especially being a retired nurse."
