Arm Sleeves UPF 50+ Sun Protection I Sensitive Fabric

Women's Sun Protective Arm Sleeves

Our Arm Sleeves are ideal when wearing a short sleeve T-shirt or short sleeve polo to protect your arms and hands from harmful UV rays. Made from cotton and natural bamboo, the fabric is super soft on your skin while helping you regulate your body temperature, keeping you cool and protected in the heat. 

We offer two styles of Arm Sleeves. 

With thumbholes: there is an opening on the side of the sleeve for the thumb. This style enables you to put your thumb through the sleeve and protect the back of your hand and palm, whilst covering the full length of your arm from the bicep area down to your knuckles. It can also be worn comfortably without making use of the thumbhole feature. 

Without thumbholes: there is no opening on the side of the sleeve for the thumb. This style covers the full length of your arm from your bicep to your wrist.

All Solbari fabrics are tested and rated UPF 50+ in Australia by the representative Australian government agency, ARPANSA, in accordance with the standard AS 4399:2020.

Most people don’t realise that not all fabrics protect the same from the sun. In fact, a regular, white cotton t-shirt may have a sun protective rating equivalent to wearing only SPF 5 sunscreen. This is why we created Solbari; to offer our customers an effective sun-protection solution that keeps their skin safe from the sun all day long. A UPF50+ rating is the highest achievable in the world and is equivalent to wearing SPF50+ sunscreen, without the need for reapplication. You can think of Solbari as SPF50+ for clothing!
