Layer up when the temps drop, then stash them when it warms up. The Elite Thermal Arm Warmers are made for riding through cool and cold conditions. Built for variable fall and spring weather, these warmers let you adjust your insulation on the fly without committing to a full thermal jersey.
Made with soft thermal fleece, they trap warmth while maintaining breathability for high-effort rides in chilly air. The outer surface is treated with PI Dry® technology to repel light rain and road spray, adding functional weather protection to your layering system.
A left- and right-specific fit ensures a natural, comfortable shape while in the riding position, and the wide grippers at the bicep keep them securely in place under your jersey or jacket. The zip-free wrist opening makes for a smooth fit inside gloves.
Pair them with our Elite Thermal Leg Warmers for adaptable cold-weather coverage, or explore more cycling accessories to complete your seasonal ride kit.

USE SIMPLE DETERGENTS WITH NO ADDITIVES Never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. The general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. Many detergents with additives leave "surfactants" behind on a fabric's fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Typically the best detergents to use will have "Clear" or "Free" in their names. Don't pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. If something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. This will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. READ THE CONTENT CARE LABEL: On the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. On garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. Follow those directions. On finer fabrics, use a "Gentle" cycle. Close all zippers, attach "hook and loop" closures on gloves YOU CAN USE THE DRYER, CAREFULLY: If you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (Do NOT use a commercial dryer or a "Hot" setting). This will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. If in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.
FAQs
The Elite Thermal Arm Warmers are fleece-lined cycling arm warmers that let one jersey cover a much wider range of temperatures.
- Why wear arm warmers instead of a long sleeve jersey?
They let you adjust mid-ride. Wear them for a cold start, then roll them down or stash them in a pocket once the day warms up, without committing to a full thermal jersey. - How warm are they?
Soft thermal fleece traps warmth for cool and cold rides while staying breathable enough for hard efforts. - Are they water-resistant?
The outer surface has a PI Dry® finish that repels light rain and road spray. - Will they slide down?
No. Wide grippers at the bicep hold them in place under your jersey or jacket, and a left- and right-specific shape fits the riding position. - Do they fit under gloves?
Yes. A zip-free wrist opening sits smoothly inside your gloves. - What else is in the range?
The Elite Thermal Knee Warmers and Elite Thermal Leg Warmers do the same job for your legs.

Good purchase
"Good fit, nice warmth. Good for cool mornings with the fleece feel"
Nice arm warmers - but they run small
"I have been using Pearl iZumi cycling for years. I order a size medium but they run small. I had to go up in a size to a large."
Comfortable fit, perfect warmth
"Summary: I had high expectation, and they were honestly exceeded. Experience: Set out on my first chilly bike ride of 2026. Phone said temp was around 50 degrees, so I had on long sleeve under armour already, but immediately noticed a chill wind. Stopped 1/2 mile into my ride and pulled the sleeves out of my back pockets. Took me about 10 seconds to pull them on, and I didn't notice the cold for the rest of the ride. They stayed locked in position. Fit: I have larger than normal arms - wrist to mid-bicep is ~18" and my arms are ~17" around at the bicep. I chose these because some reviews said they fit a little big. They fit me perfectly. I didn't feel any uncomfortable pressure, but they also didn't slide down my arm at all - perfect."
