Frequently Asked Questions – One Arm Tee
What is the One Arm Tee and what is it used for in basketball?
The One Arm Tee is a single-arm compression sleeve designed to provide thermal support and muscular stability for basketball players. It keeps the shoulder and arm muscles warm during gameplay, enhances blood circulation, and reduces muscle fatigue. For basketball athletes, it specifically aids in maintaining consistent shooting mechanics by stabilizing the guide arm.
Why does Stephen Curry wear the One Arm Tee on only one arm?
Stephen Curry started wearing the single-arm sleeve on his left arm after a shoulder injury. He uses it exclusively on his guide arm to provide structural support and warmth without restricting the natural flow and rhythm of his dominant shooting arm. Curry has stated that wearing a sleeve on both arms would disrupt his shooting touch.
Does wearing a single compression sleeve actually improve shooting accuracy?
Yes, through proprioception – the body's ability to sense the position of the arm in space. By applying graduated compression, the HZN One Arm Tee stimulates the nervous system, giving your brain more precise feedback on your arm angle and release point. This leads to better muscle memory and more consistent shot repetition during high-intensity games.
Why should I wear it on only one arm instead of both?
Your guide arm requires stability to hold the ball steady. Your shooting arm requires complete freedom of movement for a fluid wrist snap and follow-through. Wearing compression on both arms creates bilateral restriction, which is counterproductive for shooters. The HZN sleeve gives you stability where you need it and mobility where you do not.
What makes the HZN One Arm Tee different from generic compression sleeves?
The HZN One Arm Tee is built specifically for basketball biomechanics. It features graduated compression (tighter at the wrist, loosening toward the bicep) to promote venous return, flat-seam stitching to prevent chafing during aggressive play, and an anti-slip silicone grip at the bicep to ensure it stays in place through all four quarters.
Can I use the One Arm Tee during warm-ups and practice?
Absolutely. During warm-ups, it accelerates muscle activation and reduces the risk of cold-muscle strains. During practice, it maintains shoulder temperature during dead periods (free throws, sideline huddles). Many college and professional basketball players use it daily to manage joint fatigue.
How do I choose the correct size for my One Arm Tee?
Use the official HZN size guide below. Match your height and the corresponding length measurement to find your ideal size. The sleeve should feel firm but not restrictive. If you are between two sizes, choose the smaller size to ensure the graduated compression technology works as engineered.
