WHY WE LOVE THIS BRAND
PEARL iZUMi believes that riding more inspires all of us to do more. Bikes are good for people and the planet and PEARL iZUMi is in business to make apparel the right way. And because the materials they use and the emissions they create to manufacture their products directly affect the places we all ride, they’re committed to actively confronting climate change.

Advocacy

The notion that bikes make us better and are better for our planet is at the core of their advocacy work. They partner with action-focused organizations committed to expanding cycling infrastructure and increasing access to bikes. A few of those organizations are: All Kids Bike, People For Bikes and IMBA.

PEDAL TO ZERO
The first apparel line designed to be ridden out of existence. PEARL iZUMi 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, their 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.
