Any thoughts on the two?

Just saw a video, another doing the same.
Are there sleeves for sale?

Sleeve vs Glove Bridge Hand

i think it's a cut off tie or something like that. i've only ever seen corey and wang can use it so i doubt it's a product you can buy somewhere
I like not having a hot hand, but the blackening of ones hands should not be happening.

There are def sleeves for sale that you can use in place of a pool glove is so inclined. My only experience with anything like this was when I had no pool glove on a humid day but happened to be wearing a long-sleeve dry-fit shirt with a thumb hole in the cuff so it was basically the same thing as the sleeves for sale I've seen. The only issue I see is for loop bridges, which I prefer. The glove has to be a way better option for loop bridges. If mostly playing open bridges, using a sleeve should be fine.
I'm of the belts and suspenders faction. The arthritis gloves gives me the slide I like with either hand. My cue still wears the sleeve at the joint. Glove fingers make good sleeves. Thrift store silk ties are good and cheap. Just a little basic stitching. My current sleeve has a loose collar that can be pinched when bridging over the thumb and finger. A rare situation but an added stability on that rare shot.

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that ping.
These are some. I did not really care for them. They were alright material wise, but I feel they were too small. You would most likely be ok if you have a short bridge but on any shot where you had to go past the "pro taper" part it jams up. Also not good on a conical break cue. I'd say if the thing were 10% bigger they would be just right. As is... might work for short bridges but meh.
I suppose you should never have to bridge 20" up the shaft, but shape is missed or you come to the table with what your opponent leaves you. If I'm using something like this I want to use it on every shot.
