How to Get the Most Out of Your SParms Gear

How to Get the Most Out of Your SParms Gear


From sleeves and shoulder wraps to base layers, masks, gloves, leggings, leg sleeves and face shields, every piece is designed for performance and protection. The right care and the right fit mean your gear will last longer, feel better and protect you every time you step outside.

Here are practical ways to get more from your SParms gear.

1. Choose More Than One Option

No two activities are the same. A pair of sleeves works on the court, while leggings or leg sleeves cover you on the trail. Gloves protect your hands, and masks or face shields keep your face sun-safe. Each piece is built for a different need, and owning more than one set means you’re ready for any condition.

Having multiple pairs also means less wear on a single item. Fresh gear stays snug, protective and comfortable season after season.


2. Wash Smart

SParms fabric is built for performance, but how you wash it matters. Cold water keeps fibres strong and soft. Air drying prevents heat damage that can weaken protection. Avoid bleach, avoid softeners, and avoid dryers. Simple habits keep your gear light, breathable and reliable.
This applies to everything in the range. Sleeves, wraps, leggings, masks and face shields all hold their UPF50+ protection when cared for properly. The protection is woven into the fabric, not sprayed on, but care makes the difference in how long it lasts.

3. Pick the Right Coverage

Every sport and setting demands something different.
Think about your sport. Golfers often prefer sleeves that move freely with the swing. Tennis and pickleball players value sleeves for sweat control and grip. Runners and cyclists lean towards lightweight leggings or leg sleeves. Hikers and outdoor workers may choose base layers for all-day defence. There is no one answer, only the gear that suits how you play.

4. Store It Right

Performance fabrics deserve better than being scrunched in a bag. After each session, air out your gear. Fold or lay it flat. This prevents shape loss and makes sure it is ready the next time you train or compete. Storage is often overlooked, but it can add months to the life of your gear.

5. Replace When It’s Time

Every piece of performance gear has a lifespan. If your sleeves feel loose, your leggings sag, or your gloves no longer hold shape, it is time to replace them. Old fabric will not deliver consistent UPF50+ protection, and worn gear never feels as good. Fresh gear means fresh confidence and reliable protection.

6. Style With Function

SParms is protection you want to wear. The design is minimal, the fit is athletic, and the look is modern. Mix colours, pair pieces and treat them like part of your outfit. A mask with a wrap, leggings with a long-sleeve top, gloves with a clean white sleeve. When your look is sharp, your performance follows.

7. Protection That Lasts

Every SParms product is made with UPF50+ fabric that blocks 98 per cent of UV rays. That means no reapplication, no interruption, and no distractions. It is protection built into the fibres, not something that washes away. Take care of your gear and it will take care of you, every time you step outside.
