I ordered two Pearl Izumi tri shorts ' love them. They are the most comfortable tri shorts I own. Not too tight, not to loose, just right. And the padding is exactly how I like it. I should have ordered a couple more.
These shorts not only fit well and are comfortable but they hold up under the regular wear and tear of everyday use. I highly recommend them. They cost a bit more than other shorts but they last at least twice as long, making them a sound investment. I've been wearing them all season long on my ~20 mile gravel commute and haven't been disappointed.
The XS is great for very small cyclists! Runs small!
Purchased these hoping they would be good for short early morning rides. Fabric is very thin and doesn't do too much more than a pair of pantyhose to block out the view. I find the seam in middle of the front to be very irritating, forcing you to pick side to avoid rubbing you know. Would like to get credit from PI towards a 2nd pair of pro bibs instead.
I like wearing tri shorts because I prefer the thinner chamois. I have a couple of pair of Pearl Izumi shorts and like them, but these last shorts seem to run a little smaller. These are definitely a racer fit.
For me these shorts are so comfy.
Perfect for indoor, outdoor tri bike training. Pad is good. Quality is goos. On my 3rd pair.
I'm 5'11"- 195 taking a large.
