The fabric of the Slice Ultrasensor bicycle short from Pearl Izumi is one of the most advanced shorts materials in use today and has become synonymous with comfort and quality. It has a cross dyed wicking polyester backing that draws moisture away from your skin woven to a high compression nylon/lycra outer layer. The color blocked panels will add style to any ride. The 3D Elite chamois has a seamless 4 way stretch top fabric that lets it move with you, covering 12mm's of dual density foam to protect and cushion the important parts. The 9 � inch inseam, elastic PI leg gripper and drawstring waist round out the features.

My Favorite Shorts

"Wow! I'd used Pearl Izumi Attack shorts in the past and was relatively satisfied with those. A friend recommended that a pair of Pearl Izumi shorts with ultrasensor fabric would be worth the extra money. I'm glad I listened! When you wear these, it'll be like sweat doesn't exist from your waist to your knees. They wick that well. Very comfortable on the skin also, and the chamois is excellent, though perha..."

Comfortable for Medium Length Rides

"The shorts are comfortable for rides up to 50 miles or so, but for rides over that distance, the padding seems to disappear, and even with chamois cream, the seams start to chafe. A wider pad might have avoided some of the chafing problems I experienced on rides approaching 100 miles. I don't think they are worth the full list price...." Read Full Review »

"I've tried various shorts and these have proven to be both comfortable and reliable/durable. They're perfect for my commutes (15 miles, each way), as well as for longer rides over the weekends. Fit-wise, they are snug where they should be, yet stretch in all the right places too. I have a 32" inc …"  Read Full Review »

"I have had a lot of different shorts trying to find the perfect pair. I like a lot of them, love these. [$] is a little scary but well worth the cash. Buy these and use an old t-shirt, money is better spent on these shorts than on a cool shirt. "

"I really enjoy wearing these shorts. They are stylish, comfortable, and have a good pad. They are a bit on the snug side, however. Sizing is a little off; they are smaller than I expected an XL to be. I got a great deal on mine when they were on sale, so I am very happy. "
