Eesa's theory is that no one wants to wear base layer gear because it looks better in the gym than apres ski. On the flip side, if you wear your favorite hoody, you're probably wet and smelly due to perspiration when you hit the ski lodge (or a night cap) after a long day on the slopes.
Pearl Izumi Gets Technical
Pearl Izumi ruffled some feathers with its ad campaign pitting runner against joggers, but regardless they make amazing biking gear. Recently, the company released clothing made with four technical fabrics designed to reduce drag, regulate body temperature, and address the problems of moisture. They sent me a few items to check out, which meant a couple of bike rides and a spin class over the course of a few days — any excuse to hop on my bike.
