A long day on the water means hours of direct sun, and a sunburned forearm or the back of your hand can turn a great trip miserable. Most short sleeves leave the most exposed skin uncovered, and bulky long-sleeve shirts trap heat the moment the bite picks up. These UPF 50+ Cooling Arm Sleeves cover you from wrist to upper arm and add a two-finger hand panel, so you stay shaded without sweating through your gear.
The fabric is a four-way-stretch ice-silk knit that feels cool to the touch and wicks moisture, so it breathes while you cast, paddle or run the boat. Flat seams sit flush against the skin to prevent chafing, and the silicone-free top edge holds its position without digging in. The open thumb and fingers keep your grip on the rod, reel handle, paddle or wheel completely free, so you get coverage where you need it and dexterity where it counts.
Each sleeve is sold as a matched pair in a stretch one-size fit that suits most adult men and women. The knit is rated UPF 50+, blocking the large majority of UVA and UVB rays as a physical fabric barrier. Rinse in cool water and air dry; they pack flat into a tackle bag, glovebox or kayak hatch.

How to use: 1) Slide your hand through and loop the thumb and fingers into the openings. 2) Pull the sleeve up to your upper arm so it sits flat. 3) Smooth out any wrinkles and head out. Note: UPF fabric supplements but does not replace sunscreen on exposed skin.
