Ride with the Elite.

For years, Pearl Izumi has enjoyed a reputation for excellent value in high performance cycling-specific clothing and equipment. The Elite LTD Drop Tail Bib Short is a perfect example of how this reputation was earned. The Elite LTD combines top-shelf fabrics with a simple, elegant design to bring serious, high-performance cycling bibs to women who can’t blow two months’ salary on a pair of shorts.


Elite Bib Shorts were constructed from Elite Transfer fabric that was treated with Coldblack. Unlike most dark, nylon-based synthetics, those treated with Coldblack actually reflect the sun's radiant energy. This reduces the fabric's surface temperature in order to avoid overheating during the ride and run stages on hot, sunny days. Also keeping you cool is Pearl Izumi's proprietary blend of nylon, elastane, and polyester. This engineered knit produces an outer-surface that's textured for both breathability and to accelerate moisture transfer away from the skin.


To ensure that you're positioned comfortably in the saddle, Pearl Izumi included its Elite 3D Chamois. Constructed from a breathable four-way stretch fabric, the Elite 3D has been pre-shaped for total anatomic conformity. Pearl Izumi used a targeted approach to pressure relief in the Elite 3D. The strategy utilizes three layers of variable density foam; meaning that the pad is thick where your body needs it and thin where it doesn't. Active carbon yarns have also been added to increase thermo-regulation. All of this work results in the simplicity of what you really need from a chamois—dry, abrasion-free comfort.



The bib straps of the Elite Bib Shorts have been fashioned with a sternum strap so that they set comfortably on your shoulders without slipping. The back of the shorts has been designed with a proprietary drop-tail design. This allows you to answer the call of Mother Nature without stripping down to your sports bra—they are particularly useful in chilly weather and in less-than-sanitary portable toilets.
