Like all Pearl Izumi products the Quest Cycling Short has a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, that excludes failures from accidents, misuse, improper care, or normal wear. For best results Pearl Izumi recommends washing its products with detergents free of additives, such as fabric softeners and perfumes, because detergents with additives leave “surfactants” behind on a fabric’s fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Hang dry the product or dry it on a low or warm dryer setting. Never use a hot dryer setting or use a commercial dryer as this will damage the fabric’s performance.

5 Stars Womens bike shorts
Both my wife, Diane and I are into riding for excercise, we’re not members of any specific bicycle group, but recently Diane wanted to get some bike riding shorts mainly because the jeans she was wearing just wore out. So far the Izumi Womens Cycling Shorts were an excellet choice, They’re very form fitting, and the shorts are very comfortable when worn, and as any of you know who do ride comfort and that little padding is really a nice extra that can really come in handy expecially when one rides for any amount of distance. Soon I’ll probably be ordering and set of men’s cycling shorts for myself as well. We’ll see you at the Pasadena Rose Bowl, we ride to there frequently from the house it makes for a nice ride.
5 Stars Pearl Izumi Bike Shorts
Love the shorts; great fit and well made; lots of padding. When new, however, the padding is so stiff that walking is very awkward! Hoping they will soften a bit with washing.
5 Stars love the shorts
These shorts are long enough (come to about an inch or 2 above the knee) and the padding is terrific. Be sure the check the measurements for sizing before ordering because you’ll likely need a size larger than you would for street clothes. I wore out the last pair of Pearl Izumi’s and I like these even better.
5 Stars Great fit
I love these shorts! I had shorts previously that felt like I was wearing sausage casings - not these. The padding is very comfortable, especially on long rides…I hardly notice that I’m wearing them. Good value for the price.
