“PEARL iZUMi has a long history of making technical gear that helps riders perform on the bike, and our logo is a badge that represents a passion for riding,” said Andrew Hammond, Brand Manager at PEARL iZUMi. “Our BikeStyle collection is a way for riders to carry the power of riding with them wherever they go. Where appropriate we integrate bike specific features, but never at the expense of looking and feeling good off-the-bike.”
