Comments about SmartWool Arm Warmers:

I wear these for backpacking! When it's cold in the early morning I used to wear a jacket. It never failed that 30 minutes later I was having to stop, take off my pack and take off the jacket because I'd over-heat. These wonderful arm warmers are the answers. I can wear my short-sleeve T-shirt and these warmers and get going when it's cold. Then, when I get warm, I just slide them down/off and keep going. I LOVE these things!

Comments about SmartWool Arm Warmers:

I use these on my commute in late spring/early fall when it's a bit too warm for a jacket or long sleeves (especially on my ride home, after it's warmed up), but too cool to not have my arms covered in the morning. I also just wore them on a 3 day tour of the Willamette Valley, and came to admire their versatility even more. I wore them the whole time, rolling them down when it got too warm (above 70), but mostly keeping them up. They did a great job of keeping my arms from getting sunburned. Being a wool weenie anyway, I prefer the wool blend to lycra, and believe it helps the arm warmers feel better on your skin...not so clammy. Even so, these will occasionally feel very slightly clammy on some cold mornings after I've warmed up. Overall though they're very comfortable, and have become a key piece of cycling gear.

Comments about SmartWool Arm Warmers:

I always get hot when I start up the trail, especially when carrying a pack. I start off with a windshell and within a short time I'm sweating and have to take the jacket off and lash it to my pack the rest of the day. These arm warmers are the perfect answer to our problems. They provide just enough warmth at the start of the hike to leave the jacket home. If you take them backpacking they weigh almost nothing and feel great in the early mornings or after you've got camp set up and the temps start to drop. Because they're only sleeves they allow you to vent properly. The smartwool breathes really well and work fantastic with the warmth they provide. Taking them off is as simple as a tug on each wrist and rolling them into a ball to tuck into a side pocket of your shorts. These things will go on every hike with me from now on, part of my 11 essentials.

Comments about SmartWool Arm Warmers:

These are amazing arm warmers. I expected nothing less from Smartwool as they make great socks too. They are expensive but worth it. I used them in very cold weather mtn biking and keep you warm not hot! In addition they can be used as emergency first aid to stop bleeding as well and cover a wound until you can properly dress it.
