I use these in SW Florida in 90+ temps, and I actually feel cooler with them on. They are a great alternative to sunscreen which is greasy and has stained everything from my cycling gear to the seats in my car. Great product PI!

Sun is intense in S. FL. These Sun Sleeves are lightweight,keep my arms cool and prevent sunburn without the mess of sunscreen on my arms. Have a pair of another brand. The Pearl Izumis are the best by far. Very durable. A good investment.
I bought these for my girl friend who loves outdoor activities, but does not want to tan (or get sun spots). She loves them. No need to put on sunscreen. She wears them when we go biking, hiking, walking. Although they dry quickly, she will wet them to help keep cool on the hot Texas afternoon rides. These stay on, and stay in place, without being too tight or uncomfortable.
I love that she is more willing to do outdoor activities with me.
