These unisex arm warmers are another bit of kit from Hincapie’s ‘Arenberg’ collection. Fleece lined cycling clothes, that offers thermal protection for the coldest of conditions – they should manage the British winter then.
Pulling a small pair of arm warmers on that are suitable for an arm measuring 11″-12″ in circumference, it was great to feel that soft fleecy lining. Overall the fit was great, a suitably snug but not too tight fit up top, with a comfortable looseness around the wrist. I have to admit though, like with the Arenberg jacket, the cut around the elbows was quite tight, but we’ll see how we get on in the test before passing judgement.
The most noticeable feature about these arm warmers is the double silicone bands around the top opening, one on the inside as usual, and one extra band around the outside. The Slip-Not™ 2-sided silicon gripper will help the arm warmers stay up and also ensure your jersey arms stay in place to cover the tops of the arm warmers too.
Halfway down the bicep there’s a strip of the HyperOptic Roubaix™ treated fabric, to aid visibility. There’s also leg warmers to match the arm warmers.
