The Skins Series-1 Arm Compression Sleeves are designed for active individuals seeking enhanced performance and faster recovery. These sleeves apply targeted compression to the arm muscles, aiming to improve blood flow and reduce muscle oscillation during activity. While they offer significant benefits for muscle support and comfort, proper sizing is crucial to ensure optimal effectiveness and avoid discomfort.
Targeted Compression: Delivers specific pressure to arm muscles, promoting circulation and reducing vibration.
Muscle Support: Helps to stabilize muscles, potentially reducing fatigue and risk of minor injury during strenuous activity.

Skins Series-1 Arm Compression Sleeves are engineered to optimize your performance and recovery. When worn during activities such as running, cycling, weightlifting, or team sports, they apply graduated compression which can help improve blood flow. This improved circulation aims to deliver more oxygen to your working muscles and expedite the removal of metabolic waste products, potentially leading to reduced fatigue and better endurance. The muscle stabilization provided by the sleeves also minimizes muscle oscillation, which can reduce micro-trauma and subsequent soreness. After exercise, wearing the sleeves can assist in the recovery process by continuing to promote blood flow, helping to flush out lactic acid and reduce post-exercise muscle soreness. For best results, ensure the sleeves are pulled up smoothly without bunching or wrinkles, covering the entire forearm and bicep area.
Unroll the sleeve: Gently unroll the compression sleeve from the top cuff down.
Slide onto arm: Start by sliding your hand through the sleeve.
Pull up smoothly: Gradually pull the sleeve up your arm, ensuring it sits flat against your skin without any wrinkles or creases.
Position correctly: The top cuff should sit comfortably on your bicep, and the bottom cuff should be just above your wrist. Ensure a snug, but not overly tight, fit.
These Skins Series-1 Arm Compression Sleeves are designed for adult active individuals. While the specific product is listed for men, compression benefits are universal, and the fit is generally suitable for adult arm dimensions. They are compatible with various sports and activities where arm muscle support and circulation improvement are beneficial.
Proper care will extend the life and effectiveness of your compression sleeves:
Washing: Hand wash in cold water or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water.
Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
Drying: Do not tumble dry. Air dry your sleeves away from direct sunlight or high heat.
Ironing: Do not iron.
Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place.
