Assos Arm Protectors are ultralight, ultrabreathable summer arm sleeves with a second-skin fit that wicks moisture and provides UPF 50+ protection.
A lighter yarn provides the same UPF 50+ protection but is better suited to riding in heat. The recalibrated fit anchors itself with low-volume, arm-wrapping security, preventing drooping around the wrist.

I have purchased the Assos Arm Protector in white and black. During a minimum of 200 miles of riding in the Santa Monica Mountains, they provide full sun protection to my arms and kept my arms comfortable in temperatures between 60 and 90 F. I use the white arm protectors on hottter days as the black absorts more heat. Since I ride quickly, I generally have a cooling effect from the air passing by Assos has design these arm protector to shape comfortly to arms and be form fitting. These arm sleeves are pricey but I have found Assos quality stuff lasts a long time. They come in 3 sizes: 0, I, & II. Take your time to be sure the size fit your arms to achieve the proper size.
I ride about 100 miles/week outdoors in hot/sunny conditions (mid-Atlantic coast) and these sleeves work very well. Lightweight, cool, comfortable, and great UV protection. What's not to like? So happy with my original purchase that I bought a second pair.
