Just received an email from Sports Grab and saw this deal for Compression Sleeve. I've no idea what it's supposed to do, but given it's made by Adidas and is available for a dollar, I thought it seems like a bargain. However, it does look like postage would be around $10, but I believe it's capped should you want to buy anything else from them.
Still means nothing to me :-)

Hmm
Use girlfriend/Wife's stocking for the other arm..

Which equals no deal, cos this applies anywhere, anytime, on any website lol.
But $11 for the item including postage, still seems reasonable (for any Adidas product) even though I'm still none the wiser on what this sleeve is suppose to do :-)
The main benefit is keeping your elbow straighter for better shooting rhythm

Please link us to a site that sells this for $11 shipped or I'll even make it easier for you - any walk-in store that sells this for <$11.
$9.95 Shipping
Please put shipping in title
$0.99 (93% off) -> $14 RRP
0.99+9.95 -> $11
Not much a bargain.
$15 RRP in the US where Adidas gear costs 50% of the price it is here and where basketball is one of the most popular sports so basketball merchandise and related gear are cheaper due to high demand and lots of sales.
Hmm $11 to look like dwight Howard's elbow…
Bitterly disappointed about the shipping price. Having been suffered through my life with a comically uncompressed (borderline exploded) arm, I thought that normality was finally within my reach.
The shooting sleeve is used to keep your arm warm and compressed to maintain optimum comfort as well as some minor protection.
However let me advise you not to get this if you are not a above average basketball player unless you want to be made a laughing stock out of.
or a Laughing Sock out of…
Also, most places (at least in Vic) won't let you wear anything on your arms that extend below your elbow. This includes sweatbands (as there is a perception that fingers might get stuck in there and break).
