Great fitting shoes. BOA works really well along with front velcro, keep feet snug. I found them slightly small to size - I wear 43EU normally, bit found I needed the 44EU X-alp Summit.
Really comfy to walk around in for 'clippy' type shoes!
Having used various brands of padded shorts over the years. I have found these exceptionally comfortable during shorter distance rides. They do come up rather tight so best order a size up.
I'll review again on a longer cycle. Satisfied so far!
I bought this thin mesh fabric jersey for hot days and it’s perfect. It fits like a second skin. Colors are really colorful and not only on the pictures but also in reality ;-)
I would like to have more like this!
Zit comfortabel en ziet er goed uit. Bestelling verliep ook goed. Aanrader!!
I dropped 30 kilos and moved from Pearl Izumi L to M size.
I had an M Quest short and decided to go for the same size in that Attack.
To my surprise, it is snugger than the Quest, but extremely comfortable; the chamois is really comfortable and absorbing.
Once you're in, it's not easy; it fits snugly and stays in place.
I had the long-sleeve version, and I wanted one for summer. Even if I considered riding in long sleeves in summer, Madrid's weather is being cruel.
Perfect fit, fresh, comfortable.
Perhaps, once you zip it up, it might be a bit high, but it might be my appreciation.
Nice pair of bib shorts for warm weather or indoor training. Fit is good and these are comfortable to wear.
I finally found a bibs that are great quality and fit me well! I appreciate the design that works well for regular people :)
Best bike short ever, stays in place(!), tight and comfortable fabric, great color
I rode the 2nd 500km of a bikepacking race with these and found them to be very comfortable. They didn’t move around despite just being shorts and the pockets, although a little small were secure, nothing fell out. I didn’t use the rear pocket, as it’s an unusual shape. The pad is just as good as the premium pad.
Crashed hard when a dog ran in front of me and only got a few holes in the hip, so not indestructible,but still tough enough.
Leuk om te dragen! Het past zeer goed! Ik draag dit bij een fris weertje.
I wasn’t sure of the sizing, so contacted customer support, who replied quickly. Shoes arrived quickly. The fit is excellent, as I have wide feet, they are very comfortable and cool for summer riding
As usual with Pearl Izumi,these shorts are incredibly comfortable, although for the additional money I'm struggling to see the uplift in chamois, over the standard Pro bibs. The straps are excellent, but the pockets could do with redesigning. I wanted to use these for all day/night endurance road riding, where I need additional storage and the leg pockets are far too short to be useful. My standard size phone feels like it's going to fall out and the back pockets are too small. I would like to see Pearl Izumi to look at the pockets on Albion ABR1 shorts for inspiration, as with a little tweaking, these could be excellent.
The shoes are great. Great stiffness, solid (synthetic) leather although not too hot, very nice Boa system, high quality finish, really nice looks. I think the competition are the higher priced top models. I had an issue with the bolt, and the assistant was five stars, nice and fast to replace my shoes.
with this jacket you'll be seen as the sunset on the street. comfortable strechting material without disturbings sound on fast downhills

I bought these road shoes after being pleased with my Tri-fly triathlon shoes over the last few years but now needed a dedicated pair of road shoes. I thought I knew the size I from the Tri-flys so ordered the same size. However I think these come up bit larger, ether that or they are made on a wider last as the toe section is roomy. It appears that returns are free in Europe (the European distributor seems to be in Belgium) so I would advise ordering your normal size plus one up and one down to bemore sure of getting the right ones.
I did check with the Pearl Izumi chat bot and got this:
Hi Nick!
Returns are free within the first 30 days of purchase. After that, there will be a shipping fee. Just keep in mind that items need to be new, unused, and have their tags attached. We can only accept returns for items purchased within the last 60 days.
The shoes are well made, light and stiff. The double Boas work really well so the fit is great around the heel and ankle with no slipping and good power transmission.
I use Look shoe plates which covered the datum markings on the sole. I had to extend them using a rule and white marker pen to get it right.
The difficulty I encountered, when using the here in the UK summer, is that the are hot. They appear to be well ventilated but the areas of ventilation are small or ineffective. The whole of the inner side of the shoe, from toe to heel, doesn't breathe. And this is dispite it having holes punched inside a
and out! It seems to be a three-ply construction with the centre ply being non-breathing which
makes the hole punching pointless.
For:
Well made, light-weight, great power transmission, easily adjustable. At a bargain price on the sale.
Against:
Runs hot, maybe too hot.
I was looking for a light packable gilet to use on a bikepacking trip and this product seems to fit the bill. It was perfect for cool mornings on my spring trip to Spain. The two way zip helped to stop me overheating on the up hills and was easily closed for the downs. I chose the Sunfire, orange, option to make me a bit more visible. Very pleased.
Ik gebruik dit met mijn speedbike. Laat geen wind door! Degelijk materie!
The jacket fits very well, is extremely light and has a nice colour
I wear these shoes for road biking and they fit very well
Die Jacke ist leicht und Winddicht. Ich fahre sie bis zu Temperaturen bis 5Grad.
Die Jacke lässt sich kompakt in der Trikottasche verstauen.
Die Jacke sitzt gut und kompakt und bläst sich beim fahren nicht auf.
Auch schwitzt man in der Jacken nicht, so wie es bei Regenjacken der Fall ist.
Das Tragegefühl ist auch angenehm und die Jacke klebt nicht an der Haut.
Die Jacke ist auch geruchlos.
Würde mir die Jacke jederzeit wieder kaufen.
