When I first tried this jersey on, I immediately thought it was small, but after adjusting it around a bit I decided it was just a little snug. It is actually quite comfortable, and I think it will work well for my kind of riding. Pearl Izumi is usually top rate, and this jersey fits that category. I'm tempted to suggest ordering larger than your normal fi, but it really just comes down to how loose you like to dress. If you don't mind a little snug fit, order to size.

Great all around jersey. It does fit on the large side through the chest and stomach, making it easier to get on and off. I like that I can unzip the jersey for additional airflow and the back pockets work great for cell phones and stuff. My problem, not the jersey problem, is I have a long torso and order "tall" tops as a general rule. I had hoped that a larger size would add length to the jersey. Since my tight abs days are long past, I where a lightweight t-shirt under the jersey to compensate. Visibility is a high priority.

I'm very short and stout in my upper body, so the relaxed fit is actually nice and snug on me. The zipper is far more robust than any other jerseys I own, including Pearl Izumi. This is my favorite for commuting, where high viz is the safest option.

I am 6'2" tall and weight 195. I purchase this jersey in size XL in a slate blue color. The jersey fits me perfectly and is sharp looking. When first trying to place an order, I had to check the box to alert me when a new shipment arrived because they were back ordered. I waited approximately 2 months before I was notified. This was ok because I wasn't in a hurry to buy. The jersey was reasonably priced and one can't go wrong purchasing PI's bike apparel. Their quality & reputation speak for itself. Thanks BikeTiresDirect!

I can't figure out Pearl Izumi short sleeve jersey sizing. I ordered a racy fit jersey in size Large that was way too tight, and then this one in size Large that was really baggy, even though they both had the same sizing chart. For whatever reason, long sleeve PI jerseys in size Large always fit fine.

I wanted a relaxed fit light weight jersey for Phoenix summer rides. This was a perfect choice. Not too baggy, just not aero snug. Quality material that breathes well and wicks off excessive sweat. Highly visible color and the pockets hold plenty of swag. Great full length zipper. Washes up well keeping its shape and zero shrinkage (cold water/air dry) terrific BTD pricing!

I didn't realize that this jersey was made from recycled plastic bottles until it arrived. This turned out to be a plus to an already awesome piece of cycling apparel. This jersey is definitely meant for hot weather, it's light and wicks away moisture better than any of the other PI jersey (or other brands) that I own. Definitely provide the comfort I'm looking for on these hot humid monsoon mornings here in the desert. I would highly recommend.

This jersey is a must if you ride in areas where you need to be seen. Runs a little large. Normally I use an XL, but the L fits me a little better. Both a really comfortable and cool as I ride year round in west central Florida, often in 90+ temperatures with like humidity. I especially appreciate the visibility as my riding is in suburban and rural areas and Florida is not known as bicycle friendly. You can see this jersey a mile away!

Comfortable Jersey, a little heavier fabric than most of my summer weight Jerseys.
Review by AD
Nice inexpensive jersey. Don't expect top quality but the sale price was quite low and it is a good value. The sizing was pretty large and I exchanged for a smaller one at no cost, Bike Tires Direct picked up the return postage. It works great in Arizona's hot summer weather.

Does all that I was looking for in a jersey. Been washed a handful of times and hasn't shrunk. I'm looking for another color because I like this jersey.

Good hot weather Jersey. Fit is perfect.
Review by Titan
Size seems to run big, get the next size down. Has a heavier feel good for colder weather, but very comfortable. I love the zipper, higher quality than I have seen in my other specialty jerseys.

My old LG jerseys are getting pretty stretched out in the back (phone is heavy) so i needed a few cheap ones to replace them. These fit great and the sale price was right. Not as cool for hot weather but certainly good enough. 6' 0" 185 lbs. Large fits perfectly.
Review by Batbike
When your body no longer looks like one that can wear skin tight lycra without splitting the seams, along comes a jersey that provides room to grow! Best zipper in a jersey I have ever found - so good I bought 2 more! Thanks for thinking of those riders who don't look 'pro' anymore.

I have several of these, very comfortable and hi vis. They appear occasionally on the daily special making them a steal!
Review by Jversace90
Not the best but certainly good. Color is highly visible. My only complaint is that it runs small. I bought a large and it fits like a medium. Wicks perspiration well.
