I have the "bolero light" in sliver. Its a good weight for layering. Probably the other one would be better for those days that start out freezing, then warm to over 70 by mid-ride, worn over a short-sleeved or sleeveless jersey. I haven't seen it, so I'd be concerned about how small it rolls up and fits into your jersey pocket. The light one fits in easily.

Zen, if you end up hating your bolero, I'll buy it from you.

that would be how I'll use it.

I'll keep it. It just felt weird but I think it will work well for what it's intended to do.

I have the Terry Bolero and love it. I've read that they work best over sleeveless since they don't cause them to bunch up as much as SS jerseys. At least in my part of the country there are quite a few rides which start off cool enough to need long sleeves and warm up to sleeveless temps later. Sometimes, just warming your body up after the first big climb is enough to ditch the bolero.

I just bought the arm coolers here on TE, and I tried them on when they arrived yesterday. They feel strange and look even stranger, but I'm getting more and more concerned about sun exposure on my skin during summer so I'm going to wear them (and they're supposed to keep me cool so that's a bonus). I'm glad I read this, makes me know the strange sensation of how they feel is normal.
