PEARL IZUMI Thermal 3/4 Bib Tights

Dense 266g fleece 3/4 bib tight repels water with an ELITE chamois. We made this tight for those days when shorts aren’t enough but tights would be overkill, protecting your knees and providing full calf coverage. Our ELITE ThermaFleece fabric provides quick drying insulation and is stretchy enough to allow for fewer panels to reduce seaming for improved fit and comfort. We add full PI Dry® water-shedding technology to ward off splashes and light rain. Raw-edge bib straps eliminate bulk and improve layering comfort. Our plush dual-density ELITE Levitate chamois provides exceptional comfort for as long as you wish to ride. Pedal to Zero: - We calculated the Pedal to Zero number using the EPA’s estimate that a typical passenger car produces 404 grams of CO2 per mile. For example, our Rove Short creates the equivalent of 9.8kg of CO2*. Therefore, if you ride 24 miles instead of driving, you’ve zeroed out the emissions impact of the Rove Short. This knowledge can inspire us to change our behavior. This information was calculated by PEARL iZUMi using the Higg Product Module 2.0 at Higg.org. It includes cradle-to-gate impacts only. Elite Levitate Chamois: - With a ride quality similar to the PRO, this chamois pad delivers comfort and performance that’s on par or better than most high-end offerings. The ELITE Next-Gen Suspension Core uses high-density layers to distribute your body weight over a larger area for more comfort, even deep into a ride when most chamois are packed out. It features a moisture-wicking 1:1 Boundary Layer that moves with you in and out of the saddle to minimize friction. This is a daily driver chamois that is ready to go the distance. Levitate Chamois Series: - The Levitate family represents our latest innovation in chamois technology. By combining a multi-density Suspension Core™, super-soft 1:1® Boundary Layer top sheet, and seamless Infinite Edge™ transition, the Levitate lets you float through road and trail chatter so you’ll never bottom out. Reduce Friction: - Cycling is repetitive, so we use high stretch materials, soft face fabrics, and an innovative floating top layer to smooth the movement between your body and the saddle. Provide Support: - While riding, a considerable amount of weight is concentrated on the sit bones, which are about the size of a quarter. Our suspension core design distributes this pressure evenly across a wider area to prevent hot spots and improve long-distance comfort. Keep Skin Dry: - We choose specialized, highly breathable layers to allow moisture to move freely away from your body, maintaining skin health and a chafe-free riding experience. layers to allow moisture to move freely away from your body, maintaining skin health and a chafe-free riding experience. PI Dry®: - PI Dry® is a proprietary technology developed to enhance the performance and comfort of cycling gear. This technology provides a permanent water-shedding treatment that is applied to fabrics at the fiber level, making them resistant to saturation from rain or road spray. Unlike other treatments that can wash out over time, PI Dry® ensures that each fiber is coated with a hydrophobic treatment before the fabric is woven or knit, ensuring that the performance is built to last, not just seasonally but for the life of the garment. This feature is ideal for all-weather conditions, enabling riders to stay dry and comfortable in various climates, ultimately enhancing their riding experience and performance.

Wash gentle cycle. Close all zippers and hook and loop closures (“Velcro”). Tumble dry low (fabric should not be hot to the touch). When in doubt (or to save energy) hang dry. Do not use dryer sheets. Products with scents, softeners, etc. will inhibit performance of technical fabrics.
