Why Gardeners Wear Them
Four reasons these become the only sleeves you reach for.
Designed with real gardeners and tested through five Santa Cruz growing seasons. Every detail solves a problem you've actually had.
01
Blocks 98% of UV Rays
Tested to UPF 50+ by an independent lab, these sleeves intercept 98% of UVA and UVB radiation before it touches your skin. That means real protection through peak hours, not just light filtering.
UPF 50+ Lab Verified
02
Stops Scratches & Thorns
Tight-knit fabric creates a barrier between your forearms and whatever you're pruning, trellising, or harvesting. Roses, squash leaves, tomato suckers — none of it reaches skin.
Tested on Thornbush
03
Lighter Than a T-Shirt
Four-way stretch knit engineered from recycled REPREVE® fibers weighs under 2.5 oz per pair. You'll forget you're wearing them until you take them off and feel the sun.
Under 2.5 oz Per Pair
04
Stays Put — Thumb Loop
Slip on over any shirt and anchor the thumb loop. The sleeve stays in place whether you're reaching overhead, kneeling in beds, or carrying flats. No bunching, no slipping.
Thumb Loop Anchor
The Material
Built from REPREVE®. Because it performs better that way.
Made from 100% recycled plastic bottles — certified by REPREVE®
Four-way stretch moves with every reach, kneel, and carry
Moisture-wicking keeps you dry when the work heats up
UPF 50+ SUN PROTECTION
Protection Sleeves are made for the hours you spend outdoors
Whether you’re tending a backyard garden or exploring the great outdoors, if the sun’s on your arms, protection should be too.
You Garden Daily
For the person who's outside every morning before the heat peaks, tending beds, harvesting, or just walking the rows.
You Have Sensitive Skin
If spending time outdoors leaves your skin feeling sensitive or irritated. Our sleeves offer lightweight coverage that stays comfortable all day
You're Tired of Sunscreen
Greasy hands while handling seeds or transplants? Sunscreen that wears off in an hour? There's a better way. Pull these on and forget about it.
You Want To Protect Tattoos
UV fades ink faster than age. Full-sleeve UPF 50+ coverage keeps your work vivid for years longer than going bare in the garden.
You Brush Poison Ivy
A physical barrier between your skin and urushiol oil is the most reliable prevention. Slip these on when working near ivy, oak, or sumac.
You Drive · Hike · Bike
Window UV, trail exposure, road cycling — these sleeves work everywhere sun finds your arms, not just in the garden.
While our ProMesh Protection Sleeves haven't been independently lab-tested against urushiol, thousands of customers wear them specifically for working around poison ivy, poison oak, and thorny plants. The fabric is designed to act as a physical barrier between your skin and what you're working around.
They're built for everyday garden and field work — pulling weeds, pruning roses, clearing brush, and protecting your arms from the scratches and irritation that come with it. They're not puncture-proof, so very heavy thorny work may still get through — but for typical garden tasks, they hold up well.

These sleeves I ordered are medium. They are too tight. The previous sleeves I ordered were size large and they are too loose. So what size is right for me
This year especially I have gotten itching and hives after coming in from the garden. I have a couple long sleeve shirts, but it has been SO much more convenient to just keep my Farmers Defense sleeves at the back door ready for whenever I want to pop into the garden to harvest a little (or a lot!) and not worry about itchy, green arms. Plus they are breathable and comfortable
I love the protection sleeves. I got a pair for myself and two as gifts. They run small and I needed to exchange two of the sleeves. It was easy and quick. They also wash well.
A nice addition to sleeves that Farmers Defense offers
I liked the lightweight fabric and venting that keeps these sleeves cooler than others. I use these for sun protection rather than arm protection since really many summer tasks like mowing have less need for protection.
I plan to use it forVegetable FarmingSun Protection
Pro mesh sleeves on the farm
The item is nicely constructed, however there is not an adjustable zipper as advertised and I wish there was an extra long version to reach my biceps.
If they had a long version I would buy them again.
