Why We Like The Pro Short
As the premium option in Pearl Izumi's lineup, the Pro Shorts give us race-worthy performance combined with the comfort we need for big-mileage days in the saddle. The PRO Transfer fabric offers light compression that won't restrict our mobility, as well as a streamlined fit thanks to laser-cut raw edges at the leg opening.

Great Fitting!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Best fitting bike short I've ever worn. They make riding fun and the rider feel powerful. Bought these for indoor riding and usually wear bibs outside. They feel so good I'll put them in the rotation for road and mountain rides.

Pearl iZumi Pro Short
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Great saddle feel, yet very comfortable. Very low rise compared to my other Pearl Shorts, but coverage is not an issue. Prefer over all my older Pearl Pro Shorts.

Best Short I have ever worn
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I noticed the 1-star review and normally don't leave reviews but felt compelled. I too have been actively riding for 25+ years and can confidently say these are some of the best compression shorts I have worn. The seemless legs are super comfortable and stay in place. There are no bulky seams and the padding is top notch. From my experience, this is where you notice cheaper shorts the most...bulky uncomfortable, this or stiff pads. These disappear which is why you get what you pay for. Lastly, they are made to fit snug and fit true to size. I wear the same size in these as all other compression shorts.

Ride comfort is no better than shorts co
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I've been cycling for decades and finally pulled the trigger on expensive shorts. Size is small for a medium Material doesn't breath at all Ride comfort is no better than shorts costing half as much Will stick to lower priced shorts in the future
