Nice to see the larger size become available.
After wearing the 6.0 sleeves in a game, I have to say, the sleeves kept me feeling cooler. I didn't even notice I had them on. They were comfortable, featherweight and had a lot of stretch. The compression factor may have been unfair to have expected in my earlier review. My apologies. The sleeves do nicely hide the kinesiology tape that I wear for my tennis elbow though.
I wish the sleeve came in a smaller size. I took a chance on standard but don't think I'm benefitting from the light compression feature due to my smaller than "standard" arm size. I'm a small framed 5' 3" woman. The UV protection will be appreciated nonetheless.
These compression sleeves are like spandex/nylon. They are snug, so they take a little getting used to. But here's the kicker - when you are outside and the wind is blowing these sleeves have a huge cooling effect. I am very pale and burn easily in the Arizona sun. These sleeves are a god-send., and I no longer have to glop on gallons of sunscreen on my arms. I put on my t-shirt, pull on the sleeves and I'm good to go.
