The Karenswood “Premier” Sleeve
The PW.17 was created by Alan Sims and represents all that one could ask of a heavyweight protective sleeve.

The experience behind the design concept and the finest materials that money can buy, together with the
highest standards of craftsmanship, combine to make the PW.17 the most versatile protective sleeve in the entire Karenswood range. Supplied in either the very best stirrup leather, chrome leather, OR a combination of both, the sleeve is lined with the very best quality felt. Hand crafted the sleeve is anatomically contoured to the
general shape of the human arm. It is joined by a leather hinge at the elbow and the top section is extended to
provide more upper arm protection. A leather gusset has been sewn into the mouth of the joint in order to give a degree of protection without losing the flexibility of the joint.

The design is such that it allow better than 90%
natural movement of the arm, regardless of which way it is articulated. Exterior toggles are fitted to enable the Karenswood heavy jute Sleeve Cover (PW.2) to be attached.

The additional leather patch on the forearm can be replaced if damaged. The illustration shows the PW.17 with a closed end containing a hand grip and ventilation hole. The sleeve can also be supplied with open end by special request.

Just one of the patented designs of Karenswood equipment, the PW.17 remains the “PREMIER“ model.
