....I misplaced or lost my arm warmers.About those shrugs......do you like them better than arm warmers? At least I won't lose it as easily as an arm warmer.

I like my bolero way better than my arm warmers. It's really comfortable, can't ride down, and I like that the wrists aren't binding. It's easy to slip on over a jersey right over my gloves, so if I want to take it off while riding, I don't have to remove the gloves. Not the case with my arm warmers. I've already worn it twice this week.
Arm warmers are probably a lot more pro looking, but really, they're kind of annoying. I can't get in and out of them fast enough, and they're constricting.Last edited by redrhodie; 09-20-2008 at 11:32 AM.

I've used arm warmers for a bunch of years.
I just got a Terry bolero a few weeks ago. I love it. All the benes RedRhodie mentioned. In fact, I just wore it today, and threw it in the wash (with the day's bike clothes plus more) so I could wear it again tomorrow.2007 Seven ID8 - Bontrager InForm

Never worn a bolero, but I like being able to just slide my arm warmers down onto my wrists when it gets warm. No need to stop, take them off, and find a place to stow them.

This morning I just couldn't accept that the arm warmers were not in the cube so I got the cube back out and took each item out again. Not only did I inspect each piece inside and out, but ran my hands in each pocket of the cube. Nothing. Then husband asks if he can help and while I'm pilfering through the chest of drawers again, he walks back to me holding the arm warmers. It was in the cube. The same cube I inspected twice! I swear my grandmother's spirit is here heckling me again.
