The patented DERMATUff arm protectors offer protection against skin tears, skin flaps and lacerations. Thin skin tends to be a prevalent issue as we age and even a minor bump or fall can cause long-lasting and painful skin tears or bruises. The DERMATUff arm protectors can be worn on your arms or legs to protect your thin skin from such occurrences.

“Provides impact resistance in a similar manner to body armour”

You may be wondering how DERMATUff arm protectors are different to normal arm warmers. Well, our thin skin protectors are made with impact resistant yarns spun from Kevlar® by DuPont along with elasticated nylon. This provides impact resistance in a similar manner to body armour. DERMATUff thin skin arm protectors are CE marked Class 1 Medical Devices. This means they have been clinically evaluated and proved to work as intended.

Some people prefer to use the sleeves for leg protection rather than use the leg protectors. In this case you can wear the sleeves on your legs. Click here to view the separate size table and for more information about using sleeves as leg protectors.

Product Features

 

Please note that ‘Sleeves’ and ‘Arm Protectors’ are two terms used interchangeably for the same product.

  • Our patented thin skin arm protectors are unisex.
  • The looping creates a cushioning and impact resistant effect and the purpose spun yarn further impact, cut, tear and abrasion resistance.
  • The combination of the materials and construction work in a similar manner to body armour.
  • Three different sizes are available; Small, Medium and Large.
  • The arm protectors are designed for multiple usages with washing between each usage.
  • Above 180 washings, the sleeves may begin to loose their efficacy. This would equate to one year’s use if just two pairs are used and washed after each day’s usage.
  • The sleeves can be used as leg protectors instead of socks, if the dimensions are right.
  • CE marked and registered with the MHRA as a Medical Device Class I.

  • Measure the circumference in centimetres of your upper arm just above your elbow and the circumference of your wrist

Thanks Gerder! It is frustrating that thin skin is relatively unknown still but awareness is improving. As for colours, we are working on it but Kevlar is naturally bright yellow, it can be dyed black but colours are difficult.
