When I first used my bike, it never even crossed my mind that I needed cycling apparel. After several rides, it became apparent and much needed. I started looking around and there are so many different types of materials, brands, styles, and purposes available for this sport. Even though all these were designed with the serious athlete in mind, it’s kind of overwhelming sometimes for the beginner level like me, when finding these many options available and some times very little time to research information about them.

Recommended by my local bike shop sales person; I purchased these Peal Izumi Sugar cycling shorts. I have to admit, it takes a good bit of confidence to sport these, plus takes a bit of time to get used to their thick chamois between your legs.

Pearl Izumi Sugar Cycling Shorts sure offered me the rewards of comfort. I fell in-love with them and they are by far my favorites, after trying them on a hot 30-mile outdoor bike ride. I experienced no discomfort, no ride-ups. I don’t like the “farmer tan line” on my legs. These shorts are of smooth construction, 6-panel design; seamless race chamois insert and leg grippers to prevent ride-up.
