They run small. I wear XL and have 35 inch waist
Best pair of shorts I have ever owned. Century ride last weekend, was like I just went around the block as far as comfort. Awesome moisture transfer.
Pants fit well and the pad is well worth the money.
The padding density provides extra but does not seem bulky. I bought these just to be able to increase my time on the saddle while staying reasonably comfortable and they really made a difference
I have a number of brands of shorts, including high end Italian brands. PI P.R.O. is unbeatable for comfort, durability and especially the chamois. The In-R-Cool model is perfect for warm weather. They breathe and evaporate moisture superbly.
Excellent fit, cooling, and comfort especially for longer rides
Good quality , chamois superb, fabric has excellent moisture control , only negative is waist band does not have drawstrings, after severals hours in the saddle waist band tends to roll , normally ride in bibs but wanted something different for commute.
used for very long, arduous rides with no problems
Casual road bike riding averaging 30-miles per ride. The shorts are comfortable, appearance is good and they provide good ventilation.
The shorts have several panels that provide good muscle support. The pad is very comfortable and well formed. The fabric does seem cooler and drier in hot weather (85 degrees ). Leg grippers are comfortable & leg length is long enough.
The only knock that I have with these Pearl shorts is that they seem to be cut too high in the waist. I always thought that I was average size--I am 510 with a 30.25 inseam but have had to roll the waist down or else it rides above my navel.
I've used this model on everything from neighborhood rides to the SM100! Never chafing and always comfortable. They last forever, too!
Fits me perfectly
These shorts are one of the best I have owned. They are comfortable and they stay in place. I make sure I put these shorts on for long rides and save my cheap shorts for the short rides.
Good fit for skinny legs and works well on long, hot rides.
I bought this for my husband. We ride 4 days a week and have lots of jerseys and shorts including some team kits. He says that this pair is most comfortable, well-constructed, and feels good throughout long rides even compared to team kits he has.
So nice! Perfect length , great grippers! Love the sheen of the material kinda like a matte black. The padding is amazing and the way it is sewn in is flawless! No bunching! They feel and look good on and off the bike! I wear these shorts when I want to look and ride like a super star!!!
I went to a shop and tried about four brands and these were the best fit. I also tried the Elite and Select line, but the paneling and fit just felt wrong on my body. The chamois is amazing at what it does and I have toured for several days without smell or chafing from rub. Highly suggest going to shop and trying on a bunch of different types, do not look at price, just find what works for your body and motion.
