[Review] BlackStrap Protection Gear

Protect your skin no matter the season with BlackStrap Gear. I had the opportunity to test out both the Daily Sleeve Set and the Daily Tube by BlackStrap and not only was I protected from the sun with UPF 50+, but there were also a host of other benefits wearing BlackStrap gear while working outside for long hours throughout the summer.

What I love about the Daily Tube is that I can easily wear it and in multiple different ways. I usually wear it on my neck pulled up under my hat so it protects my neck, ears, and chest from sun damage. It can be worn in many many different ways! The Daily Tube is made with 4-way stretch fabric and is super breathable. For those really hot situations, it’s important to know that the Daily Tube is naturally antimicrobial and easy to wash with the rest of your gear at home. Something I love about both the Daily Tube and the Daily Sleeve is that they are lens safe. It brings peace of mind to have the lens safe fabric and know that I can easily clean my sunglasses and not worry about the lenses scratching.

The Daily Sleeve Set is the perfect solution for me for work in the summer. I have a ton of company t-shirts and find myself getting really hot if I wear long sleeves. With the Daily Sleeve I can easily slip them on when I know I’m going to be out in the sun for periods of time and if I get really hot, I can use them for a cooling effect if I get them wet. The sleeves are also UPF 50+ Rated and are very breathable.

The Daily Sleeve is extremely comfortable and fits well. It’s not annoying to wear and won’t fall down throughout the day. I followed the size guide to a T and the size I ordered (small/medium) is perfect.

Another huge benefit to wearing the Daily Sleeve, especially in Minnesota, is the fact that I can spray the tube with bug spray and it works really well as a defense against bugs. I also like not having to spray the bug spray directly on my skin. I find that even if I’m wearing the Daily Sleeve and haven’t sprayed it down with bug spray, it works well as a bug defense barrier.

If you’re looking for ways to protect yourself from the sun in the summer, or any season really, look no further than BlackStrap Gear. I would highly recommend the Daily Tube and if you’re in the elements for long periods of time, the Daily Sleeve Set. No matter the activity or season, sun protection should be a huge priority and BlackStrap makes that priority easy and comfortable.
