Arm Sleeves for Fashion & Comfort.
So what is the difference between arm apparel and other arm sleeves? Let us explain. We like to break down sleeves into 5 basic types of sleeves:
1. Athletic Sleeves
2. Medical Sleeves
3. Novelty Sleeves
4. Functional Sleeves
5. Arm Apparel
Athletic arm sleeves are generally nylon / spandex compression sleeve used as basketball arm sleeves, baseball arm sleeves, running sleeves, cycling sleeves, football sleeves, and all around arm sleeves for sports. Novelty sleeves are those tacky tattoo sleeves that mostly pop up around Halloween. Medical sleeves are also typically arm compression sleeves used to treat something. Functional sleeves serve a purpose, like sun sleeves and arm warmers. Arm apparel is a whole new category of arm accessories and sleeves for comfort and fashion.
