They are better than the sun but I found them very uncomfortable, stick to me like tights on legs. I purchased another brand from a local Bike store.

I use them in Fl daily when I play tennis. They prevent sunburn by blocking UV rays (reason I use them). Because you sweat, the high rate of evaporation actually makes it feel that it cools your arms. Would much rather wear these than wear a long sleeve tennis shirt which makes you much warmer.

Yes, the only thing is going to keep you cool like A/C. But, they keep the sun off your arms and by doing this it helps a lot to keep you cooler. More so then nothing. I still use sun block on my arms before I put them on.

I am sorry i did not answer your question sooner. But these are not compression items. They are very comfortable and living in Florida i can testify to the fact that they actually make your arms cooler in the heat. I also like the fact that i don't have to put suntan lotion on my arms when i ride.

Not recommended, they will sweat and get soft. Ideally they should go on a rack where the air can flow around them while they cool off. Hope that helps!! =)

They definitely feel cool to me. I cant say I think they're particularly comfortable. It freaks me out how light they are, and I feel like I have to sit extra still to keep them from falling off sometimes. They also sort of dig into the to of your head. I think the design is dumb overall, but they don't make my ears hot. They also aren't particularly bass-y. I don't really recommend them, but they do sound amazing for being as cheap as they are.

No, your arms will always feel cool. I love them because I live in Atlanta. I usually wear them consistently into November and warm days in December. The next few days will be warm for February and I plan to wear them on my next runs.

I bought these for my daughter, she wore them during hot yoga with no problem, and that was LOTS of sweat! Hope this helps...

For motorcycle Rides I think they will work well because you are moving and it will keep you cool, I have used this at the beach during a windy day and it works great.. I love this shirt I get complements every whenever I wear it...

They can be used in the summer if you want. Just keep in mind they keep body heat in, they are wonderful in winter.

These do make you retain your body heat but I understand there are covers that are supposed to counteract that.

I think so they do get extremely hot so you might have to hold them up a little. I've never tried it.

I am sure they will make your feet sweat if you don't wear socks as they are not lined with anything. I have only had mine this winter and don't know how they will be in warmer weather. Although awkward to put on I am very pleased with mine so far and they are relatively comfortable to wear.

I haven't had them long enough to use in the summer, but I live in a southern state where it is warm most of the year, and they have been very cool.

Sorry, I like to be hot and I have had to run in frigid temperatures lately. I have not had these long enough to know how they behave in warmer temperatures. Based on my experience with other brands as well, they are no different in terms on how much I sweat. The support is excellent though. Hope this helps

I haven't noticed that they have any sort of cooling effect. It may just be that they have better ventilation than other products, but for me I have found that I do get hot in them from time to time.

I use them for pre- and post-season driving in my convertible. I've had no trouble with cold seeping in - including highway speeds in low 40° temps. Unsure if using them in true frigid weather would keep you warm enough - but then again, layering is always best.

Haven't tried it because it hasn't been hot where I live yet since I got em... But I think they are light enough to wear in warmer weather. I work out indoors with them and don't get hot.
