Anyone use arm warmers?

[caligurl]

oh gosh! i wear arm warmers (and sun skins) ALL the time! i don't wear short sleeve jerseys in the sun (tan lines.. ICK!) so i always wear warmers or skins if i wear SS! plus in cool weather... they keep my arms toasty!!!!!

i have black, blue, red, and white ones!

I prefer a bolero, but I don't like things snug on my arms.

A Bolero is about a thousand times better than arm warmers! And simple to remove- pull it off over your head! I won't ever wear arm warmers again- the Bolero is so much better.

Oh Nanci, you're much more coordinated than I, I can't do that on the fly, I need to stop to pull off my bolero. Still, that's a small concession.

Someone on here taught me how- pull it off over your head with one hand! Before I read that, it was a cluster getting it off...

I wear it over tanks, sleeveless jerseys, short sleeve jerseys, long sleeve jerseys...

I think that was Veronica, she's annoyingly coordinated too.

I have a bolero too (looks like the same one as Nanci's) and also love that - but for some reason I forget about it in my big pile of bike clothing. It gets lost in the black bike shorts, and when I finally do run across it, I think "Oh yeah, I should really wear this more often!" It's great when I actually remember to wear it.

I only like it with sleeveless jerseys, though. With short-sleeve jerseys, the sleeves get all bunched up and require too much straightening for my taste, so I wear armwarmers with SS jerseys when it's a little cool out (but not cool enough for a long-sleeve jersey).

Funny, I never use to think I was coordinated.

I have both a bolero and arm warmers. I use the arm warmers if the day is likely to warm up and I'll want to take them off and I'm wearing short sleeves.

Sheesh... my cycling clothes are becoming a fashion statement.
