Do arm sleeves protect you from the cold?

There are sun sleeves and there are compression sleeves. Sun Sleeves, like Crazy Arms, are made from UPF50+ fabric, that is designed to stay cool in hot sun, but they also serve to protect from wind chill on cold mornings cycling or out on morning walks. Compression sleeves are for use with high intensity work outs, and while they will likewise provide some protection from wind chill, they are not advised for longer exercise or activity. You can find out more at the Crazy Arms website.
