Make sense to change kit if not working.
I didn't used to wear arm warmers, mostly because I found the grippers irritating. What I did instead was carry a long sleeved jersey. A bit more bulky but more comfortable. I remember I used one on pbp in 2015.
After that I got some arm warmers I was happier with so ditched the Jersey.

I'd still have my down jacket and rain jacket but I'm thinking tight, close to body clothing. It's not working for me. That's kinda why I rode through most of winter in shorts and tshirt to see if I could get used to it. I probably could but it was the lack of food that did me in I reckon, not a lack of layers. Maybe I could use a pair of tights with short socks and lose the warmers/guards and then I can back the ankle zippers off if I notice any rubbing. I could also buy another pair of those arm sleeves or maybe just go without until it gets real cold.
