PEARL iZUMi just launched new pieces for Fall that are perfect for transitioning your kit for cooler temps. If you’re looking for quality pieces built to keep you comfortable and dry on the bike, even when the mercury dips, their Transfer Wool Baselayer, Amfib Evo Lobster Glove, and Expedition Alpha Jacket will fit the bill.
Transfer Wool LS Baselayer
Add a baselayer
Because it’s worn directly against the skin in conditions where sweating through can have ride-ending consequences, a cold weather baselayer needs to feel luxurious and keep you dry. Our Transfer Wool Baselayer expertly does both, thanks to the performance properties and super cozy feel of DriRelease® wool. Softer than cotton, this smart fabric leverages the wicking and insulating properties of natural Merino yarn that is wrapped around synthetic fibers. The result is a push-pull effect where moisture is pushed away from the body and heat stays in, leaving you prepared for the most dynamic rides. And natural Merino is also antimicrobial and odor-resistant, so you can wear more and wash less. The form-fit design is longer cut to the torso, and thumb loops elevate this staple and make it ready to tuck, layer, and go.
- Lightweight DriRelease® Merino blend for moisture and odor management
- Softer than cotton feel is great next to skin
- High stretch for close-to-body fit
- Longer length for coverage when tucked into tights
- Form fit
- [Men’s | Women’s] – $75.00

Amfib Evo Lobster Glove
Upgrade the essentials
Spawned from the rugged winters in Colorado, the split two-and-two-finger design of the original Lobster Glove brought cyclists an unrivaled solution to riding in the coldest conditions: the warmth of a mitten and the control of a glove. At that time, road shifters were still on the downtube, and before the advent of hydraulic brakes, trail riders didn’t dare pull the reins with less than two fingers. Today, the tap of a button shifts gears, disc brakes are easily feathered with one finger, and most riders carry some form of touchscreen technology. In this latest iteration, the index and middle fingers are separated to provide more dexterity and device compatibility, while the mitten-like grouping of the ring and pinkie remains intact. 170g of PrimaLoft® Gold insulation with Cross CoreTM technology paired with AmFIB® softshell continues to provide incredible warmth and wind protection with minimal bulk. Still true to its original purpose, the Lobster Evo will help you adapt and thrive in deep winter.
- AmFIB® Softshell main body fabric protects from wind and water
- 170g PrimaLoft® Gold w/Cross Core technology insulation is made from 35% post-consumer recycled polyester and incorporates Aerogel particles for maximum warmth with minimal bulk
- Ax® Suede Laredo synthetic leather palm for durability and great grip
- Touch screen compatible
- $95.00

Expedition Alpha Jacket
Be prepared for changing conditions
The Expedition Alpha takes the top step when it comes to delivering dynamic, thermoregulating protection against cold on the bike. Quilted panels of Polartec® Alpha® Direct provide targeted insulation in the areas where riders feel the coldest: the shoulders, chest, and upper arms. DWR-treated windproof ripstop composes the exterior of the jacket, and the insulation-free back and side panels allow excess heat to escape so you stay in the comfort zone. A silicone hemline grip and encased elastic cuffs combine to make for a draft-free ride. Whether you’re rolling out the fat bike or need extra warmth for nights spent bikepacking, the Expedition Alpha provides light, capable protection for the adventure-minded rider. Even better, it’s made with upcycled materials.
- Super-light Ripstop Nylon shell fabric for wind protection
