How Sun Sleeves Stay Up: No More Slipping!

Ever been mid-swing on the golf course, grinding the main sail, or serving for the set, only to have your sun sleeves start slipping down your arms? Aaagh! That's the last thing you need when you're in the zone. At Crazy Arms, we totally get it. That's why we tackled this pesky problem head-on, right from the start, with three simple strategies to keep your sun sleeves perfectly in place.

1. The Secret to Snug: Our Lightweight Elastic

To ensure your Crazy Arms are always super comfy (because who wants sleeves that dig in?!), we use a special lightweight elastic – think of the kind you'd find in your comfiest underwear! This clever elastic is discreetly inserted into the top band of each sleeve. Unlike heavier, restrictive elastics that can feel 'tough at the top,' ours provides just the right amount of gentle hold without ever feeling tight or uncomfortable. It's all about a perfect, barely-there feel for the sleeves.

2. Sizing Up Success: A Fit for Every Arm

One size fits all? Not for sun sleeves, unfortunately. We quickly learned from our passionate customers that arm circumference plays a huge role in how well a sleeve stays put. That's why we offer a wide range of sizes, each precision cut and sewn.

The many different fits are laid out for precision cutting

Crazy Arms Size Range

  • 4 Adult Arm Sleeve Sizes: Designed to perfectly match different adult arm widths. Whether your arms are more muscular (which can cope with a tighter fit) or you prefer a more relaxed fit, we've tailored our sizing to ensure everyone finds their ideal fit.
  •  3 Kids Sleeve Sizes: Because growing arms need love too! Our kids' sleeves are sized to accommodate their growth in both arm length and circumference, ensuring they get the same great protection and comfort.

3. The Magic Fabric: ECONYL®'s Shape-Retaining Power

Last but not least, meet our secret weapon: the unique ECONYL® based fabric. This isn't just any fabric; it boasts incredible advantages over polyester. Blended with 10% lycra®,  its superior superior stretch and recovery properties mean that Crazy Arms will retain their shape – even after many stretches, washes, games and wild adventures! This durability makes Crazy Arms a long-lasting choice.

You can trust that your sleeves will maintain form and function, wear after wear, wash after wash (just remember a cool wash and line dry for best results!) for several years.
