Pearl Izumi Men's Elite Thermal Long Sleeve Jersey

Like other Pearl "Elite" items these run small - I bought an M where I would normally buy an S and it fits perfectly. This is a very comfortable cold weather cycling top, very nicely made and looks great.

This is the winter jersey that I have been looking for a long time. It looks great, fits well, and with a mid-weight undershirt keeps me warm in 30 degree morning rides. I highly recommend adding this jersey to your winter wardrobe. I will be buying another one.One month later I did buy another jersey. I wear 16x32-33 fitted shirts and this jersey fits me very well. I little long on the sleeves but that just fine for winter riding.

Pearl Izumi sizes are always a guessing game for me. Club, Semi-Form Fit, Form-Fit... all seem to be a very nuanced fit. This size large jersey is a bit longer in the arms(even beyond stretching out in the drops) and a bit more generous in the midsection than I needed, but the medium was so tight I would be hard-pressed to fit a base layer under it. I guess I need a 'medarge'. Quality is excellent as always from Pearl and this is most likely the warmest non-wool item in my wardrobe. I waited patiently for the price to drop to an amazingly low amount on Amazon before I pulled the trigger. The color is a bit bolder than I usually go with (the petrol blue has a hint of green to it) but I liked the combination from the first time I noticed it. I feel like I got a screaming deal on something that I have been eyeballing since last winter.

Just wore this first time (July 29). 51 deg this morn and felt this would be better for the 40's. Relieved the temp problem by unzipping a bit.I'm 5'-11" 225 lbs and usually get the XL in PI's Elite brand. Same with this one and fits well.I love the flap behind the zipper to prevent cold wind from entering. Awesome thermal jersey. Pearl Izumi did a great job with this one!They list the fleece lining in the description. But when you wear this, you can tell it makes a big difference to keep you warmer.

Very nice, and very warm. I wish I had another. Remember Pearl Izumi tends to size on the thinner side. I have a 31 inch waist and follow the sizing exactly, that works for me but if you're any wider than me you may want to go up a size

Very very very very cool thermal top. Great colour. So warm. A quality garment. Definitely an investment purchase.

Not all Pearl Izumi Thermal Jerseys are the same weight and construction so beware. I bought 2 jerseys from 2 different sellers which had essentially the same description (but different colors). This version (non LTD) is more of a 'jacket' than a standard thermal jersey. I appreciate the quality and will be great for colder weather but was a bit heavier than I had expected based on the other Elite Thermal Jersey that I had received and was more of a standard heavy weight jersey.This jersey I would classify for sub 40 degree rides with a thin base layer. (almost like their soft shell jacket but perhaps with less wind resistance). Fabric is softer and reminds me more of a knitted or sweatshirt type feel.The PI Elite Thermal LTD jersey I purchased elsewhere would be more suited to 40-50 degree weather with a thin base layer. The LTD version was more of a typical slick jersey feel and lighter weight (although heavy in terms of typical jersey)I have never been disappointed with Pearl Izumi and am a loyal consumer. I just wanted to provide a word of caution that they are many variants even within the same product line, family and description.

Had this for a year now an love it. (Large) Good fit for this 5' 11" 165 Lb guy. Warm down to around 50* (or lower with wind breaker over top) on those 30-40 mile rides.
