Skins™ powersleeves are a unique concept in sports compression equipment. They can be worn under or with existing playing strips and will provide many of the benefits associated with Skins™ long sleeve tops. Powersleeves are designed to relieve the pain and fatigue that develops when working for long periods with your hands and arms. Powersleeves work by assisting the circulation, promoting greater oxygen availability and preventing the swelling that causes the aching sensation. These effects can significantly increase on-field performance. Powersleeves are easily placed on the arm but maintain good compression around the muscles of the upper and lower arm. This pressure reduces up to the top of the bicep, keeping the powersleeve up without a supportive band.
