Does it do a good job up a shirt or a sleeve? I'd like to use this while walking around in an Australian summer.

It generates a fairly strong breeze for the size of it. It does need to be aimed where you want the breeze to go directly to. I loved it while in Portugal and Spain last month. It's not going to cool you all over, since it is small. I'm not sure what you mean by up a shirt or sleeve? I also bought a stronger battery for longer life, online for $5.

Well it help!We had a hot and humid heatwave a few month ago.As long it is fully charged and the intake us not blockedYou'll have some comfort.It'll provide a light steady breeze,With a wet towel around the neck,And I put the strap on the where the fan is pointing up,when I put the strap around my neck.It worked for me.

I found that it doesn't give enough of a breeze to help very much with the heat. To even feel the air from this you have to have it extremely close to your skin. I wouldn't recommend it.

It's a sleeve that is barely bigger than the card. Load your card into this upside down and then turn it right side up to put into a normal sleeve. That will give you good protection against wear & moisture.

It does get a little stuffy in weather like that, but as a single layer over a t shirt its fine. And unzipping the arm vents helps too.

Can't say. I do yoga and pilates to keep my lower back stable. Haven't noticed any effect with the sleeves.

No, they are not that long. When I wear a short-sleeved top, they go up to where the sleeves end on my arms. Definitely not all the way to the shoulders, so they would not work with a sleeveless shirt/top. Generally mine stay up pretty well, although I find they are slipping more with the more I wear them & the older they get. It will also depend on what size you have, how large (and long) your arms are, and how active you are while wearing them. I have used mine hiking & bike riding and have loved them; they actually make my arms feel cooler and I love the way they protect the top of my hands in addition to my arms. I've recommended them to friends and have already purchased 3 pairs myself. No, they are not that long. When I wear a short-sleeved top, they go up to where the sleeves end on my arms.

U need a sleeve, otherwise there isn't anything to stop a.c. from coming forward. Also it needs to be tilted or u get water on inside.

I live in a super humid environment. They work best when they're damp and have airflow over them. They're going to be sticky and as uncomfortable as any athletic clothing would be at that humidity, but your skin is still protected. If you're at that level of humidity and in the sun, it's going to suck with or without the sleeves.

I have not had a chance to wear it. During the winter i use a long sleeve shirt. It has to be better than without.

I'm sure that it could be used during practice and performances, but I'm not sure how comfortable that will be. I can see the un-sleeved side moving up with exertion. You could sure try it, though, and any support would be better than none.

Yes. Works fine, but kangaroo carry makes a better under the shirt rig. This one is great for under sport coat or sweater.

No it does not. It also gets a little hot to hold. You need a little sleeve.

I only wore it around the pool in Palm Springs. It's not form fitting, at least the size I got for myself but I don't like them to fit that way...but no issues with the shirt getting hot.Hope that helps. Ps. lots of compliments on the "look" of the shirt.

The sleeve is one size. It would be worth trying because it can be returned if it doesn't work out.

I'm very pleased with my sleeves . They stay up real good. With the humidity outside your arms do get quite warm. I'm sure your husband would make good use of them.

It's just a sleeve, you can put in your backpack! That's what I do cause I have many backpacks and duffle bags. The sleeve does the job perfectly

I think that I bought the large. I also had an issue with them coming down from the top. I did find that pulling more material up from around the wrist reduced the tension pulling down the tops. That helped a lot. There is no question that they do cool the skin. I just bought a pair of Nike sleeves in a different color after finding them on clearance, but I have not used them yet.

The sleeve is metal and the unit is designed to be in the weather, although some type of protective cover is recommended. I have a vine covered arbor outside my bedroom window and the AC unit is partially protected. In previous homes, I had similiar units installed through the wall without any protection outside and experienced no problems. I don't anticipate trouble with my new unit but time will tell.
