Pearl IzumiMen's Escape Quest Shorts ( 2021 )(Return to Product Page)

The Quest short is a great price for a six panel short of high quality lycra. Excellent chamois, neither too thick or too thin. Perfect length (I'm 5'8). Bookmarked these so I could buy another pair in the future.

I am a road cyclist. These shorts are so uncomfortable that I am not using them.

I bought these (2 pair) to replace some aging Pearl Izumi (not sure which model) shorts from many years ago that had now lost the elasticity in the waist. I wasn't expecting much at this price. But they have proved to be comfortable and even hold onto my leg quite well. I'm super lean, so that was somewhat surprising. The butt pad felt kind of weird at first-like I had made an accident in my pants like when I was a kid. But when you're on the bike, these are noticeably more comfortable than previous versions of Pearl Izumi shorts (for me). Truly excellent price as well for something that works this well. Wish they were still made in the USA instead of China. But that's how the world is these days.

Have been using these shorts for several years. I usually alternate 2 pair for the whole summer.

I generally wear PI Pro or Elite bibs on the road, needed something for Spin class during winter months. Very happy with this purchase, nice material, fit well, good length, comfortable. The chamois is slightly bigger/thicker than what I am used to but feels fine on the bike. Good quality and definitely an upgrade from other lower end shorts that I had been using previously. Very satisfied.

Nice shorts for shorter rides. Bought them for trainer rides and for short rides under regular shorts.

These are a good quality pair of shorts that fit well and offer a padded seat for extended rides and comfort. The legs don't fit too tightly or bind like some shorts I have.

These matched the PI's I had been using for the last 5 years before the elastic began to weaken. Caught these on sale and am looking forward to several years of great wear from these!

Pad is fairly thick. It might bunch in the wrong places for some, but I do not have that problem. Great value for casual rides of 50 miles or less.

It's exactly what I was looking for

Very comfortable quality made ! Very comfortable to wear doesn't slip up or move and the padding really protects, highly recommend

Don't like the pad. Have several older pairs of PI biking shorts, but ordered these and after trying once sent back for a credit. Pad seems like one continuous piece and not very form fitting. Recommend including the pad pics with shorts.

Of several different brands of bicycle shorts I have purchased, the Pearl Izumi Men's Quest are by far nicest and most comfortable shorts I have found in the lower to mid price range.

I have purchased bike pants at my local bike shop for over 30 years and usually pay at least twice what I paid for 2 pairs from REI recently and same quality as I wear them everyday on my 30-40 mile ride.

Good deal. A lot cheaper then the bike stores.

Comfortable. Well made. Great sale price.

I wear these shorts on all my rides and appreciate the comfort and the cost.

I have several other PI shorts and love them. These lack sufficient padding in the rear area. As such, it's easy to chaff during a long ride. Spend the $ and get better quality shorts.

Nice ahorts that perform very well &come through on those dog days of summer and worth the price

Having owned a pair of these shorts for several years, I was disappointed that the current model has a much thicker pad than my previous pair. The shorts are well made, but won't work for me.
