Looking for a new pair of arm warmers for long skinny arms. Tried Castelli Nanoflex in size small and they're a little baggy around the elbow and slip down.

Cuff - 6 inches
Bicep - 10 inches
Length wrist to bicep - 50cm

Any good brands for long skinny arms? Assos?

I have had good success with Sportful Fiandre No Rain arm warmers.

My wrist/cuff: 6 inches
My bicep (measured in middle of bicep): 11 inches
Not sure what your wrist to bicep length measures, but I am 21 inches from my armpit to that bone on the outside of the wrist.

The Sportful arm warmers in size small fit nice and tight and are actually a litle longer than I need given the measurements above. I hope that helps.

+1 for Sportful No Rain. I also have long skinny arms, and they have always been great for me. Unfortunately they now have a red colour strip on them, but I managed to buy a second pair before the change.
I am a fan of their matching leg warmers too, had to buy a second hand set to avoid the red strip after damaging a pair in a crash.
