DeFeet Arm Skins

Price Paid:  $20.00 at Bicycle Garage Indy

Bike Setup:
2005 Serotta Fierte Steel with Ultegra.

Summary:
Good value. Feel Great. I bought these to wear with my short sleeve jerseys instead of buying long sleeve. Buy these and a DeFeet UnDshirt and you do not have to buy long sleeve jerseys. Great layering. Start out with your armskins under you windbreaker jacket, take off the jacket if it warms up. Take off armskins if it gets really warm. Put them in your jersey and pull them out to wear at a rest stop if it is windy and shady. Take them off and ride again.

Strengths:
Keep you warm. Comfortable and stay in place. Versatile. Can wear under windbreaker for extra warmth.

Weaknesses:
None.
