Seams and sizing

To fit my skinny biceps, I had to sew the small/medium smaller at the top. An XS size would be useful for many adults and youth. I bought these with bicycling in mind...be aware that the seam at the end is immediately uncomfortable against the handlebars as it forms a lump right under the index metacarpophalangeal joint. I might end up wearing them on opposite arms, losing the palm grip, or above the thumb. All in all, I should have gone with a different product, but these should do for sun protection. The fabric feels nice and cool, and the top grip strip is comfortable.

Instantly felt the cooling affect

Super happy with these upon initial try-on. I haven't field tested them but first impressions are good. Very comfortable, I got size S/M, slim arms and they're great, maybe slightly big but they stay up well.

Comfortable and made with Quality

So I'm 5'11, 165lb and ordered the L/X so they definitely don't compress but that's not what I am looking for. They stay up during runs, really comfortable and made with quality. I have 2 pairs now and will use these often.

Most comfortable sleeves I had purchased

I had purchased numerous sleeves till date for my cycling and Outdoor Research is the most comfortable so far. I feel sad for my older sleeves but I just can't bring myself to use them again

So comfortable!

This is my third pair of these sun sleeves - I find them very comfortable to wear, very breathable and no itch. I find the t-shirt sun sleeves combo much more comfortable in the heat than a long-sleeved shirt so it's really great in the summer heat. I love being able to keep the sun off my forearms but also the backs of my hands.

My summer staple

I work outdoors a lot and have very fair skin. These sleeves are amazing: the material is very comfortable, even covers the back of your hands, has grip pads so you can still use your hands to work, and they stay up all day long. Even after several washes, they material remains like new. I tell everyone that I work with that they need to invest in a few pairs.

Good product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sleeves work well and are easier to carry on runs than a sun hoodie.

An essential piece of gear for me

As a pasty Ginger, sun protection is a major concern when building a multiday backpacking gear list. I combine the sunsleeves with either the OR sun bucket or the OR Visor depending on the time of year as well as the OR buff. I take the three OR items on every adventure. I am a major fan of OR products. I have a couple items that are almost 30 years old and still in working order. Thank you OR.
