DeFeet Armskins have been a staple in my race bag for decades. Even during my pro career, I often reached for them instead of sponsor-issued gear because the fit and warmth were better.
They provide just enough insulation for chilly morning pre-rides or cool race starts, and they’re easy to roll down or stash in a pocket once temperatures rise. The knit construction is durable and holds its elasticity over time. These aren’t something you replace every season—they hold up through years of regular use. The only real drawback is the material. The knit fabric can make it harder to pull a tight-fitting long sleeve jersey over them, especially in a rush.
