Sun Leg Sleeves
Protect your legs while staying cool on hot rides with our Sun Leg Sleeves, engineered to offer UPF 50+ protection even when stretched. These cycling leg sleeves combine breathable comfort, sun defense, and sweat-activated cooling for blistering summer miles.
Crafted from ELITE Transfer fabric with integrated Ice-fil®, the sleeves activate skin-cooling as you sweat. Combined with In-R-Cool® moisture-management technology, they work hard to regulate temperature and keep your skin feeling fresh as heat builds.
The easy slip-on design fits comfortably under shorts or trail pants without chafing or bunching. BioViz™ reflective elements, visible up to 100 meters, enhance visibility when the days stretch long and evening rides linger.
Dial in sun performance and cooling efficiency on every ride. These are your go-to for hot-weather sessions that require protection and comfort in equal measure.

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.

Reviews
Thicker than expected
"I got them in white for summer time riding to protect from the sun. They are too thick for this summer. I will use them in the fall and Spring. They are also wide below the knee kind of floppy. I'm 6'2" 188lbs"
Sun leg sleeves
"In general, these leg sleeves are helpful. I’m disappointed in the sizing of the leg sleeves at the very top. The elastic component to keep the legs up is not effective at all. Even when placed under my cycling shorts, the elastic at the top of the leggings does not hold them up and they keep sliding down. This is disappointing and annoying to me. I have lesser quality leg sleeves (and a lot less expensive) from another vender that have a better elastic component at the top of the sleeve and I was expecting the same elastic performance from your company - instead of a lesser performing product. Thanks for listening. . ."
Love them!
"This is my third time ordering the sun leg sleeves. I love them."
Will not stay up. Useless
"I would give these way more stars if the product would stay up on my leg. I bought the xl size which seems to fit petfect but the minute I begin to move it ends up around my knee. Bought a pair for my son as well. Good fit, same issue. Wish I didn't buy 3 pairs to start. . . ."
Sun Leg Sleeves
"The sleeves are too large around the top and slide down when I wear them. I use them when I play golf which involves walking."
Perform as expected. Comfy.
"Perform as expected. Comfy."
Works great
"If you are struggling with these falling down, remember to wear these under your riding bibs. Work great for me."
Perfect for Costa Rica Adventure
"Perfect for our coast to coast trip in Costa Rica. Wore them for warmth in the mornings and sun protection throughout the day!"
Does not stay up on leg
"It fits perfect, around the thigh area the sleeves slides down over time multiple times to the point its very tedious and inconvenient to wear. I have long legs and the size was fine but it does not stay put."
Not happy w these for
"Not happy w these for exercise- they fell down w both running & riding. I’m Likely going to keep for hiking. I love arm sleeves!"
