and the environment will thank you.

Climate Sleeves
Here in the Pacific Northwest, you can never guess what the weather will bring – that’s why
arm warmers are a cyclist’s or hiker’s best friend. These comfortable, lightweight, water resistant sleeves are great for those foggy mornings that turn into sunny afternoons – that later turn into rainy evenings.
Made in Seattle, Wash.
