Whether you are a professional athlete, weekend warrior, or occasional sports enthusiast, you have likely noticed more and more people wearing arm sleeves as they go about performing their sport. Golf, running, cycling, tennis, football, baseball, lacrosse, soccer, volleyball, bowling, fishing, and on and on. There are many features to sports arm sleeves and some are more important than others. What we found out might surprise you. Based upon reviews and ratings, here are the 10 best sports arm sleeves features.
The top ranked sports arm sleeve feature cited by athletes and sports enthusiasts was compression. The compression in Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves is beneficial in a number of ways. Compression provides performance, support, and protection to the muscles in your arms. Sports arm sleeves and especially running calf sleeves improve blood circulation and keep your muscles feeling fresh.
The second ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports enthusiasts was fit. Perhaps this should come as no surprise. Most sports involve constant arm motion. Arm sleeves that are poorly constructed or that don’t fit will not stay up. No serious athlete wants to be constantly pulling up their arm sleeves and distracted in any way. For fit, is important to look for sports arm sleeves that come in a wide range of sizes. For example, Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves come in 12 different sizes from Youth Small to Adult 4XL. This granular sizing ensures that you can get the exact fit that you want. Arm sleeves that only come in a limited number of sizes or that combine sizes such as S/M and L/XL have too wide of a gap from one size to the next resulting in a poor fit that is too tight or too loose which makes your arm sleeves either pull apart at the seams or fall down.
The third ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports enthusiasts was the elastic gripper. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves have an elastic gripper made of silicon at the top of the arm sleeves which ensures that the sleeves will stay up on your arms. Sports arm sleeves that do not have a quality elastic gripper rely upon a tight fit in order to stay in place. After a few wears the fit at the top of the sleeve loosens and these sleeves fall down your arm. Or worse, after a few wears the arm sleeves pull apart at the seams. A good, high quality elastic gripper is essential to the fit and wear of sports arm sleeves.
The fourth ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports
enthusiast was stitching. Quality stitching is important for comfort, fit and durability. Poor stitching can feel scratchy and irritating to the arms. Sports arm sleeves that are poorly stitched come apart after a few wears and become of no use. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves have quality flat lock stitching which makes the sleeves comfortable to wear, ensures a good fit throughout the entire arm sleeve, and makes the sleeves very durable and long lasting.
The fifth ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports
enthusiasts was durability. Durability is a feature of any product. Just as an athlete would not want their shoes, jerseys, padding, and protective wear to fall apart after a few uses, neither does am athlete want this for their sports arm sleeves. Cheaply made arm sleeves do not fit well, do not have lasting compression, and likely have no UV protection. Simply put, for athletes such arm sleeves do not work and they do not last. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves are durable and can be machine washed making them a long lasting addition to your athletic attire.
The sixth ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports
enthusiasts was Extreme UPF 50+ protection against the harmful UV rays of the sun. Outdoor athletes of all ages must worry about over exposure to the sun. All it takes is just fifteen minutes of exposure to the sun without protection to cause damage to the skin. Outdoor athletes are at risk of getting precancerous skin damage which can lead to skin cancer. Uvoider Arm UV Sleeves have extreme UPF 50+ protection and are far more effective than sunblock in protecting your skin. And unlike sunblock which only lasts two hours and is messy, sports arm sleeves protect you as long as you are wearing them and there is no mess.
Sweat prevention was the seventh ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports enthusiasts. Let’s face it, when you perform your sport and give it your best, you will sweat. Often, profusely. Athletes that perform their sport without sports arm sleeves, especially on hot and humid days, are likely to have sweat dripping down their arms. This can and usually does interfere with performance. And after your done, anything your arms touch like a chair or car seat will instantly become wet and messy and possibly stained. When you wear sports arm sleeves, your arms stay dry and cool because the moisture wicking properties of the arm sleeves wicks away your perspiration before it can even become sweat. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves prevents your arms from sweating. You will perform better, your arms will feel better, and you won’t have a sweaty mess.
The eighth ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports enthusiasts was cooling. The moisture wicking properties of Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves keeps the arms cool and dry. Athletes, both outdoor and indoor, get hot. Sports arm sleeves keeps your arms dry and makes your arms feel as if they are in air condition. Hot weather athletes especially like this feature.
The ninth ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports enthusiasts was colors and styles. Often, colors and styles are very important especially when wearing team colors. And of course, some athletes like to wear eye-catching colors and designs. This is not just a fashion statement but highly practical as in crowded sporting events such as a marathon or charity 5K race, friends and co-runners that might be looking for you can more easily spot and pick you out of a crowd. Other athletes like cyclists and runners that cycle and run at night or along the roadside like to wear safety colors such as neon yellow with reflective strips to ensure that they can be seen by those they share the road with like cars, trucks, SUVs and buses. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves come in 40 different colors and styles ensuring that just about any athlete can find the arm sleeve that is right for them.
Being anti-bacterial and odor resistant was the tenth ranked sports arm sleeves feature cited by athletes and sports enthusiasts. Uvoider UV Arm Sleeves are made of anti-bacterial and odor resistant fabric. This keeps bacteria from forming and growing on your arm sleeves keeping them cleaner, fresher to wear, and odor free. Sports arm sleeves without this feature amass bacteria which can make them smell bad and cause staining.
