Let customers speak for us
Day-to-Night Concert Essential
I’m obsessed with my sun sleeve! I wore it to a concert in San Diego, and not only did it protect me from the sun during the day, but it also kept me warm and cozy once the sun went down. It looked so cute with my outfit too—stylish and functional! I love that these sleeves have so many uses. Highly recommend! Plus, Nicole (the owner) is amazing

Finally what I’ve been looking for!
I’ve been trying to switch away from sunscreen and use more sun protective clothing, sun sleeves are a great option and accessory when you need hand and arm coverage. These sleeves are better than any of the ones I’ve ordered in the past! Finally someone created a quality product with the consumer in mind! They are well made and absolutely stunning, I need more!

Favorite sun sleeves!
Hello Shade is by far the cutest sun sleeves I could find on the internet!! I bought the Camo and Rose All Day and want to collect them all now! The sleeves are very comfortable on the upper arm and easily adjustable. The fabric is my favorite part, it’s so soft, light and cooling. The material feels cooler in the sun than when my arms are without the sleeves. I can’t wait to see what other colors they will push out!

Why Hello Shade? A note from our founder...
Growing up in Del Mar, the sun has always been a big part of my life—hiding from it, that is.
Let's be real: it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know that the sun ages us. Preventative beauty is key. Every month, we spend so much money on skincare, sunscreens, hats, sunglasses etc—all to protect our face. But what about our arms? Sunscreen always meant sticky residue and harsh chemicals. The UPF clothing options? Not for me.
I wanted to create something different—something you can wear with all your favorite outfits and actually feel good in.
Stylish, functional sun protection that women actually want to wear.
Welcome to HELLO SHADE.
Now, you don’t have to hide from the sun—because we’ve created SHADE for your skin.
Love, Nicole
