This short uses more muscle hugging Lycra® than anything else in Pearl Izumi's line, for a performance feel the moment you slip them on. A sophisticated seven panel design utilizes the stretch and support of the fabric to simplify the number of seams, allowing the short to smoothly follow your every movement. Laser cut hems create a seamless transition to your thigh and perfectly balanced compression. In-R-Cool® technology provides additional cooling performance as you turn up the heat and lay down the power. Equipped with Pearl Izumi's highly breathable premium ELITE Escape 1:1® Chamois for long ride comfort.
