A+
Originally ordered size Medium as per sizing chart (length) however they were much too tight. Had to return and exchange for size LARGE. The large arrived and fit great! The little bit of extra length was not even noticeable and probably helps for bending of the arms, etc. They run tight so I would suggest you size up. Anyway, wore them today for the first time and...WOW! Absolutely love them. They definitely did the job of protecting from the sun and even made the ride MORE enjoyable since it kept my arms cool by not having the sun burn them up. It was pleasure not having to lather on the sunscreen. I definitely rate these an A+.

Comfortable coverage
I started off looking for a lightweight long sleeve product towards functioning as a sun screen layer but had these recommended to me as an alternative, with the idea that they do the same job but can be removed when it gets overly hot or also used as an additional layer when it's cold. I gave them a shot (the white ones) and have worn them on several rides now-- couldn't be happier with them. They fit very snuggly but not uncomfortable at all, like a second skin, and they are cool to the skin when put on-- haven't felt hot in them on hot days at all. They do a great job of keeping the sun off but are still thin enough that my smart watch can get the biometric data off me while I'm riding, too. Really happy with them.

minor mods required
because cycling clothing companies dont have a summer long sleeve, those of us who cant get sunny arms, resort to items like this. ive been using a lightweight arm warmer for a long time and thought id give these a go. the fabric is really shear and lightweight and works to keep the sweat wicking which is what keeps the temperature down. niggles from me, which of course are subjective to the user, are the length slightly too short, the top at the shoulder would benefit from a 'gripper' which is less of an issue when used on the short sleeved jerseys with longer arms , and the wrist is a little tight, but they work. id love Rapha to produce a summer jersey that had sleeves like this.

Good looking but not enough stretch
I had a pair of Rapha arm screens from years ago but lost them. Bought the Pro Team Arm Screens to replace them, but feel the fabric on the new pair is tight and isn't stretchy enough. Screens are too tight on top of my arms and too loose in the elbow area.

Brilliant
I bought these to do the Etape du Tour in, as I’d been warned about the heat. I took them for a 100 mile test ride the week before, on a scorcher of a day (32°c). They did a great job of keeping the arms protected from the sun and were nicer than wearing (and having to keep topped up) sun cream. I also did what another reviewer did and poured some water over them when I stopped to buy additional water.
On the Etape, I did exactly the same thing and they really helped keep me cool, I wore them all day. They took the edge off during the early morning ride to the start line and stayed cool during they day (a quick squirt of water from the bottle over each arm would cool me down for the next 30 mins or so). Highly recommended.
They are a tight fit, but not uncomfortable. I’m 6’1" and 80kg and the Large fit well. I wasn’t nervous about them being too tight at the elbow, but I had no issues with them.

Just enough!
Bought these as summer screens and was not disappointed. Was a little concerned they might be too warm in the summer but really don't notice them at all despite having the black ones. They're extremely thing / light and do a great job of keeping the sun off my arms.
Despite how thin they are they're also just enough to keep the edge off as the temperature drops. Can't say enough good things about them.

Material and style great - missing grippers though
Lovely material. Warm but not too hot and also cool enough once the temperatures rise. Super lightweight also. Only drawback is no grippers at the top of the sleeves. Unless worn with the correct top, they slide down my arms while riding.

Disappointed!
The gripper doesnt work well, they slide down your arms. Very disappointed.

You have listed in the sizing guide that arm length is <60cm for a size small. Can you please advise the actual length is?
Hello, the actual length of this item in size small is 45 cm.

Is there a difference in UV-protection depending on which colour I choose?
The SPF rating of the Arm Screens is 40 no matter the color you choose.

Have these been updated? Reading some of the reviews say that they don’t have grippers on the top but the description says it does. Thanks
They have low profile grippers on the top.

How do you measure arm length for sizing for arm screens/warmers?
I would recommend measuring from the wrist to the top of your arm where the shoulder muscle meets the bicep. When the arm warmer is on there should be a bit of over lap with the jersey sleeve.

How do these compare to the merino arm warmers with regards to sizing?
The Pro Team Arm Screens are a much slimmer fit, so you might have to size up.

I'm really struggling to remove dirt marks from my screens, at the recommended cleaning temperature. Any tips?
We recommend our apparel wash for ensuring all residue that causes mark is removed. However, if the stain is oil-based it will be very difficult to remove under any conditions

How does the thickness/warmth compare to the Lightweight Arm Warmers and Classic Arm Warmers?
The Pro Team Screens are not designed for cold weather and are distinct from Arm Warmers in that they are designed to protect the rider from the sun rather then the cold.

How does the size compare to the thermal arm warmers? I wear medium on the thermal ones and they’re a bit snug but still comfortable. Would I have to size up in these? The pro fits usually run a bit tight on me, and reviews say these run tight.
Thank you for your request. We’ll contact you when your Pro Team Arm Screens is available.
