Kevlar Heat Sleeves, One Size, Black

I'm an artist / writer / snap-fit Gundam modeler who lives in the basement of a house with a swamp cooler and no cold air return. By the very nature of my work environment down here, it's cold as all hell, which often negatively affects my quality of life while trying to write or draw or whatever I'm trying to do. I just got these today, and I'm extremely grateful that Past Me looked out for Future Me and ordered these, for various reasons. - First thing I did was put them on. great fit. Armpit to fingertips I've got about 26" of upper limb real estate (each arm). They don't encumber the movement of any of my fingers or thumbs. I'm totally fine writing and drawing with these on so far... - ...Which brings up my point of praise: because Kevlar is a very non-abrasive material, these don't seem to smudge my pencil marks. Definitely not as easily as my clammy hand tends to, which brings me to... - These don't make my arms sweaty or clammy. I've been wearing them since I opened my package 4 hours ago. The tendons and ligaments in my forearms are wonderfully comfortable They're *not rigid cold* and they're not overly warm. Sleeves don't seem to cause any sort of sweating or clamminess for me. Basically, they fit great, don't inhibit my movement while doing art, keep my arms at a comfortable temperature, lessen the amount of abrasion / smudging while drawing, and could also potentially save me a limb or two in the absurdly unlikely event of getting caught up in a knife fight. Who knows, maybe I'll take up wok-based cooking so as to reap the heat-protective benefits of these bad boys as well. VERDICT: highly recommended as HIGHLY versatile, functional accessories to basically ANY task you can think of.

A small investment to keep forearms from getting all bruised up. They work great for yard work and working on automobiles.

I do a lot of metal work in South Texas and don't want to wear a long sleeve shirt in hot weather. These help protect my arms allowing me to wear a short sleeve shirt. I do not use the thumb holes because that add material into the palm of my had causing hand fatigue or grip slipping. Make sure you wash them before wearing; I didn't and they made my arms itch. Problem went away after a run through the washer.

I got these sleeve for riding my motorcycle for two reasons. 1. While wearing my leather jacket on the bike I tend to get a cool breeze up my sleeve. While this isn't a huge deal it does get a bit annoying. Wearing these heat sleeves practically eliminates this breeze that travels up my forearm and helps to keep me warm when it is cooler outside. 2. While riding I've always noticed a gap of soft pink skin between my jacket and glove. ,I've always been worried that if I ever had to ditch the bike, or the bike ditches me, the asphalt would tear into my arm and my skin. Having this Kevlar here gives me peace of mind that I have some added abrasion resistance to protect myself from road rash. The gloves would have gotten a 5 star rating but I've noticed that one of the sleeves has a smaller thumbhole than the other one. Small enough that if I use that sleeve on my throttle hand I an feel a bit of discomfort after a while. It's not a huge problem, I just switch the sleeves around, but because it's an issue with quality I'm taking off a star. Also...be aware that the pair I got is not really black in color. In the sunlight it looks like a dark Navy Blue. I really don't care what color thy are. What matters is that they are comfortable and they should do their job. However, I never plan on jumping of my bike to test them.

Anyone who’s had to check and fill transmission fluid on newer model F-150s knows how hard it is with that stupid hot catalytic converter right where your arm needs to be. These sleeves make the job way easier and much less likely you’ll get a 3rd degree burn…

Work great avoided many injuries

Fit is tight on lean/muscular arms. Not recommended if you're yolked out. Probably goes the same for our hefty friends. Not something I keep on for an entire shift. It does protect against heat, I work with objects around ~125⁰/~150⁰F

I wanted something to cover my wrists during my winter commutes in north dakota. There's a gap between my gloves and jacket that can result in blistering redness if exposed for too long to the wind. The neoprene 'athletic' wrist warmers are more than twice this price, so I picked these up to see how they fit. LOVE that they have a spot for the thumbs so they stay in place. I commuted last week with temperatures down to 10F (below 0f windchill) and these puppies were amazing. They kept my whole arm warm, which in turn helped keep heat in my gloves. I'm hoping they don't stretch out, but so far they're looking great. They smell kind of nice too. Like some kind of bubble gum. I have no idea why... but it's better than sweat :P. Plus I can ward off a surprise tundra knife attack with these bad boys. Highly recommended for winter bikers.

Length of the product only able to cover till my forearm (was expecting to cover my whole hand), not stretchable making pretty uncomfortable to wear for prolong period

Son rápidas de poner y cubren bastante bien el antebrazo y manos. Quizá un poco cortas para quien tiene brazos largos o son altos.

I bought these for fire spinning as I kept burning my arms/wrists and these are great. Incredibly comfortable, fit well and do exactly what it says on the tin. A bonus for me is that they look good for performances and since they're black you can't see any soot marks! So a win-win situation, really!

Bought for my professional welding fiance...protect well from burns, even UV burns. Recommended.

Bought these for cat grooming, they are not bit proof. They do seem to be okay for scratching, for the most part. Anyways, I'll buy welders gloves next time. Probably fine for their original use, they seemed like good quality otherwise!
