Love this fabric, July 10, 2011
By Martian1 (Charleston, WV)

When I took this jersey out of the packaging, I was immediately struck by how pleasant the fabric felt. It is lightweight and very smooth. On a 40 mile ride on a humid morning I was impressed with how well it breathed and how it felt like I wasn't wearing a sweaty shirt. The color (red) is brilliant and deep and I feel like it made me visible to oncoming traffic on the back one lane road where I was riding.
I usually go for a more snug fitting jersey and this (XL) is not that. It is a very loose cut and a bit long. When riding, it is very comfortable, even though it's loose. When standing, it hangs way down in the back. Usually my jersey pockets are at mid back level. This one hangs around my butt. So, if you like the snugger fit, go for a size smaller. If you are a more casual rider or go for a more modest fit, this is perfect.
All in all, it is a great product!

Great Jersey, June 28, 2011
By BPS (Midland, MI USA)
|

Most visible color available (there is a reason construction and road workers are wearing it now), essential to have for anyone spending a significant amount of time cycling on country roads or city streets. Fit is good for me, I'm 6'5" and around 200 lbs, ordered a size L. I would describe the shirt as fitted, important feature in a cycling jersey, no unnecessary shirt flapping in the wind. Length is good, even for me.
The only negative I've encountered so far is the color picks up any bit of dirt or grease, which if you end up changing a flat or messing with a chain is going to be inevitable. But, with the high visibility, I'll deal with it. I feel much safer on the roads when I've got it on.

Very happy with this jersey. Bright and visible. But not obnoxious. Very comfortable and tailored fit. Nice pockets, and seems like good quality.

PI comes through again, September 13, 2011
By Peter Bushman (Martinsburg, WV USA)

Having used Pearl Izumi gear for many years my expectations for this jersey were high. My expectations have been met. I am impressed with the quality of the fabric and construction. The overall design is fantastic. Breathablility is outstanding. I've worn this journey many times for 2+ hour rides in the heat and humidity of mid-Atlantic summer and have never felt overheated. At the end of my ride the jersey is barely damp indicating a great ability to wick away sweat.
All aspects of the design and construction are on par with PI's consistently superior quality. My XL size fits just right on my 6'2"/195# frame. One added bonus is the smaller "key" pocket sewn into one of the rear pockets. Makes it easy to carry keys/money/iphone and keep them separated from other items like bananas and powerbars. There is a waterproof lining in the small pocket that keeps the sweat from seeping into the contents of the small pocket. I don't hand over soggy bills when I stop for breakfast after my ride... A small thing but shows how PI thinks things through and makes quality products. One of my riding buddies bought one after seeing it on me and checking it out after a ride. Recommended.

Excelent product, August 13, 2011
By sergiomanchego

It has multiple ups: protects from the wind, doesn't flare (good aerodynamics), high quality of manufacturing and materials, BREATHABLE (perfect for warm weather, keeps you dry from sweat), doesn't stain easily or shows sweat marks. Downs: it pulls easily.

Great quality a bit too long, June 29, 2011
By Neal (Brooklyn, NY United States)

I love Perl Izumi product quality and this Jersey is no exception. There is only one thing that I feel needs to change in this jersey and that is the fact that this jersey is a bit too long in the back.

Great Value! Real Comfy fit!, May 22, 2012
By West

This jersey has a great fit for the real person, the sizes relate very much to the way a t-shirt fits which is great for a guy my size (xxl fits a 240lb person). Other than that, the material is smooth and the seams are well constructed. The material is pretty tough as I have taken some good spills with no tears or thread pulls. The only draw back is the material ventilates a little less than some of the higher end jerseys, but for the cost a great value!
