Not as brightly colored as I'd hoped for, but they're still a great option
I have these in neon green (actually closer to Pearl Izumi's screaming yellow) and love the fit and hi viz for cycling. I wanted to get a second pair for when the other is in the laundry, so I got these in orange. These are not as brightly colored as the Eclipse sunsleeves I had in Safety Orange. Those stretched out over time, and I needed a replacement pair. The price was right for these as were the fit and sun protection. Hopefully will still help drivers be able to see me on my bike.

Gun Sleeves
Yeah I'll give these guys 5 stars!!! They said they upgraded my order from the C3D-B style, to the "2014 new upgraded model" E3D-B. Cool. But, if you got guns 20" or over it's pretty tight. 24"-26" guns... your arms would probably go numb until these are very broken in! At first I thought I was doomed, but my arms are not 24" or upwards so I got comfortable wearing it after a few minutes. The material is very thin so try not to snag it on anything sharp or go wrestling with your dogs, or a velociraptor; it will tear or create a run in it like a woman's pantyhose. However, I did notice a nice cooling sensation across my entire arm. That is going to be a plus while working in the hot muggy summers of upstate NY. The material just feels GREAT!! Put these on and just start waving your arm around, yeah you'll look funny for a bit, but you'll see what I mean. It also has excellent elasticity which aides in the compression factor BECAUSE of the tightness; so it works for me. It should stretch out a bit more though I would imagine over time and abuse. So I'd say these are a definite upgrade over the more pricey Under Armor ones I've had to use. I mean for the price and material quality, you just can't beat these. Remember though, if you have biceps more than 24"-26" I don't think you would like your arms to go completely numb and would try to look for a similar product that produces different sizes, rather than "one size fits all". I'll see how they hold up in my line of work though. ;-) I hope this review helps you all.

Overall not bad, but a few concerns...
I just got these and so far they are really nice. They really do have a nice cooling effect, which is great since I live in Phoenix and the heat is really intense. I primarily got these to cover some scars on my arm while at work, but my biggest concern is that I work with dogs, and I am a bit worried about their nails shredding the material. It is pretty thin, like stockings, mildly thicker than panyhose. It came with a few snags already in it, so I am concerned about it's durability. And the stretch could be better. It feels pretty tight at first, but it does feel better the longer you wear it. However it is pretty easy to see skin underneath it. It covers my scars, but it may not work for most tattoos.For the function it was created for I think this would be perfect for most people, but if wearing to work or to cover tattoos don't set your expectations too high, but for under $10 it's really not that bad.Overall feelings:Cooling affect: GREAT!Use at work: Pretty good, just don't snag it on anythingSkin/tattoo coverage: for little things, very effective, for large tattoos, expect some see through (especially near the wrist).Weight: Very lightweightFit: Could use more stretch at the top.Rolling down: No problems yetDurability: Not sure yet

Not bad!
I was highly skeptical that these would actually keep my arms cooler than if they were bare, but half the time they actually do seem to! I use them primarily to cover up my tattoo sleeves at work, though I did go running with them on recently and I can say that I definitely prefer not to wear them during exercise, but they are great for my purposes. The material is very breathable and comfortable even when wearing them all day long. One drawback is that there were threads pulling when I took them out of the package before I even tried them on for the first time, and since then I find more threads dangling from time to time. What are you supposed to do to get these threads to stop unravelling anyway? Cut them, pull them, burn them, leave them? There just aren't any good options, in my experience it's all downhill from there, so we will see how long these last. Still giving 4 stars though, because however long they do last, they are certainly working very well, and they are definitely some of the cheapest!
