After my skin cancer, I need to rethink my outdoor clothing. Does anyone know of any good cycling jerseys with long sleeves but designed for hot weather? All my long sleeved jerseys are thick winter ones.
Thank you. I hadn't heard of these. Case closed!Could you use a SS jersey and uv sleeves as an alternative?
Velovixen have good ranges as do stolen goat

Currently in France cycling in over 30 degrees. Stopping every 20 minutes to apply factor 50. It's a nuisance. Obviously there's nowt else I can do about my face but protective clothing is a better idea for my armsIs applying sunscreen not an option? Get the highest SPF there is. 100. That should block out as much as any long sleeve shirt.
Sounds like a good shout. I've bought from them before so will have an account. Will look when I get home and can find my details.Sportpursuit have Monton summer Ls ladies jerseys half price at £60, a slim cut which should suit you iirc

Built to breathe, this Lightweight cycling jersey is engineered for riding in hot and humid conditions. Signature premium DeanSilk fabric on front is soft, highly elastic and conforms to your body shape. New for 2020 the technical DeanDot fabric extends across the upper back panel and sleeves, which aids freedom of movement and ventilation. Fan-shaped mesh under the lower back panel promotes airflow allowing for optimum temperature regulation. Italian MARC waistband holds the jersey securely in place.
I have two friends with very pale skin who burn easily. When sun is strong and temperatures high they both wear lightweight armwarmers with a summer jersey.After my skin cancer, I need to rethink my outdoor clothing.

When cycling in hot climates I carry I set of UV protection arm sleeves with me, which can be baught cheaply!
