    For warm weather gear long sleeves look for any that can repel sweat but as for protection maybe it will guard his skin a little better than regular clothes and get like an Allen Iverson sleeve .

    For colder weather depends on his frailness and falls if he is that maybe elbow pads and part leather on his arms if your focused on protecting him like motorcycle gear but a little less on .

    Your best thing is really going to a Sporting Good shop or a bicycle shop and really describe your father needs to get the right suited clothes for him .

    sports sleeves - never heard of that

    protect my 80 year old dads arms-there are plenty of other stuff to ''protect''

    plus if it is just cloth, the asphalt will wear right through that

    it;s just getting hot for nothing

    unless it;s winter

    i think that is all they are for, warmth

    so no one would use in summer
