Features & Specifications
Premium Fabric Technology
Our compression sleeves feature four-way stretch spandex-polyester blend that maintains consistent compression without restricting natural shooting motion. The compression also helps keep muscles warm, which many players find beneficial for maintaining shooting touch throughout games.
Secure Non-Slip Design
Silicone grip bands prevent slipping that plagues generic retail sleeves. Stays in place during the most aggressive defensive plays and fast breaks without constant readjustment.
Maximum Comfort
Seamless construction eliminates chafing and irritation during extended wear. Quick-dry performance provides rapid moisture evaporation between possessions for all-game comfort.
Full Customization
Unlike plain black or white retail sleeves, our compression sleeves can be fully customized with your team colors, logos, numbers, and designs. This allows players to get the performance benefits they want while maintaining team coordination and showcasing individual style.

Frequently Asked Questions
Arm sleeves provide multiple potential benefits: graduated compression supports arm muscles during repetitive shooting motions, temperature regulation keeps muscles warm for consistent performance, moisture-wicking keeps arms dry for better ball control, and UV protection for outdoor play. Many players also appreciate the psychological confidence boost and the ability to express personal style. While benefits vary by individual, arm sleeves have become popular at all competitive levels.
This is entirely personal preference. Most players wear a single sleeve on their shooting arm for targeted support and style. Some players wear matching sleeves on both arms for symmetry and bilateral support. There’s no performance advantage to either approach – it comes down to individual comfort and aesthetics. We can accommodate either preference in your team order, so consider surveying your players about their preferences before ordering.
Arm sleeves should fit snugly enough to provide compression and stay in place without sliding, but not so tight that they restrict circulation or movement. When properly fitted, you should feel gentle, consistent pressure along the entire arm. The sleeve shouldn’t bunch, wrinkle, or leave deep marks on skin. Use our detailed size chart based on arm measurements, and consider ordering sample sizes for testing before committing to your full team order. Proper fit is essential for both comfort and performance benefits.
