Products
Pearl Izumi offers a wide range of products that all fit the athletic consumers
from running, triathlon, and technical cycling gear. The largely growing
company is offered online throughout the world but retailers are located
throughout USA, Canada, Australia, and Europe. Pearl Izumi offers a wide
selection of merchandise from outerwear, shorts, shoes, tops, tights, jerseys, hats,
and miscellaneous gift accessories. The selection of these products all relate in
the aspect of Pearl Izumi’s modern technology and initiative to “drive evolution,
revolution and change in the design and construction of performance apparel
and footwear for athletes who depend on uncompromising gear.” The products
offered all have a similar look and style throughout every country with some
minor differences in the aspect of junior wear being used in the cycling
products. All of the products offered by Pearl Izumi are designed for adventure
and athletic performance with breathability, lightweight capabilities, and a form
fit to maximize the aerodynamics of an athlete’s performance wear. Pearl
Izumi’s array of athletic performance wear is versatile and meant for all types of
weather with technologies such as moisture wicking textiles and various types of
base layers for a comfortable all-encompassing an economically engineered
experience.
The 1:1 product range is designed to offer the highest possible performance level of any of their products. It is designed
to perfectly fit the moving body. The products are engineered to feel the same at mile 100 as it does at mile 0. The 1:1
Atomic Fit allows for the product to become a part of you. The Performance Engineered Materials are crafted to meet
the rigorous needs of athletes. Finally, the 1:1 Design is used to enhance the individual connection with the product.
7. 6
All of Pearl Izumi’s products are innovative for their sport. The company designs with
the serious athlete in mind. They consider both comfort and quality in their
aesthetically appealing creations. All of their products are sleek and seemingly
simple, but thought is put into every detail down to the zipper length. Their tops and
bottoms are designed for minimal chaffing with excellent wicking properties for
optimal comfort. Whether rain, snow, or shine, everyone should be able to get
outside and do what they love. Their clothing comes in a variety of colors, but the
designers know it’s about more than just looking good, function is a key feature.
Pearl Izumi is constantly looking for new innovations to advance the performance of
their products. Their clothing is high quality, and is designed to last.
Pearl Izumi’s technologies are very innovative
and are amongst the best for their athletes and
their consumers. Pearl Izumi makes information
available about their fabrics and products. Each product offered by Pearl Izumi
can be viewed on their website accompanied by description of fabrics used as
well as technologies that the product offers. Pearl Izumi utilizes technology symbols
to communicate the technologies used for certain product offerings. These symbols
range from a snowflake for “In-R-Cool” and a “sunbeam” bouncing off a line to
represent UV protection. If the consumer isn’t looking to read too in depth into the
product description and are more visual, these symbols make it easier to convey.
The information the Pearl Izumi makes available about their technologies
demonstrates that they are confident in their testing and research. The information
and descriptions is presented in a way that the average person can understand it
and information is presented in both visual models and written description which
makes it accessible and relatable to a variety of consumers.
8. 7
Website
Pearl Izumi’s homepage has links to their three different sites: Europe, Australia, and Canada/United States. Each site has its own
technology section where the consumer can find information about Pearl Izumi’s fabrics under the, “Innovation Since 1950,”
section. Australia’s website also has a section where the consumer can find information about Pearl Izumi’s “1:1 Interface - The
Way We Do Things.” Pearl Izumi ensures the highest quality and the greatest possible user experience when designing,
engineering, and testing their products. According to Pearl Izumi, they have tested their products and continuously refined their
fabrics to meet the demands of all cyclists and runners who train year round in their apparel and footwear for 60 years. Pearl
Izumi utilizes highly developed fabrics, categorized by four basic technology systems—transfer, thermal, barrier, and soft shell—
designed to keep you dry and comfortable. The company also has developed “1:1” products and has tiers technologies within
all their products. Their footwear and accessories also have callouts about technology used on those products. For example,
running shoes may use such callouts as, “Seamless Upper”.
Pearl Izumi is a very impressive company and their approach to their website, target market, branding, designs, technology, and
athlete utilization are certainly in a league of their own. There is a different web page for USA, Canada, Europe, and Australia,
but the layout of each country is relatively the same. The website is fairly easy to navigate, with headings for each category:
Who we are, Where we live, Products, Technology, Speed Shop, Video Room. The website gives background information about
the company, including the history of Pearl Izumi and the Performance Engineered Fabric system that has been around for 60
years. It also has a unique layout, and incorporates pictures and videos to give the consumer greater insight into the company.
The listing of all of their products is a great strategy that Pearl Izumi has, as many websites do not include an inventory of their
products.
While browsing through Pearl Izumi's website, it is very evident who this company's target market is, which is fairly specific. It
targets athletes that require dependable gear, mainly runners and cyclists. Their target consumers are in USA, Canada,
Australia, and Europe as observed from the website. This apparel, footwear, and accessories are designed for both men and
women. These products range from junior through adult sizes.
Pearl Izumi has a developmental team called "The Speed Shop" which targets a slightly different, more advanced market. This
team makes high performance gear and they target top-level athletes. The products consist of highly developed products
made for speed and agility.
Pearl Izumi has sponsored athletes, like most athletic apparel companies. Pearl Izumi incorporates their athletes throughout their
website in the following way… Under the “Video Room” category, there are three videos of the athletes that merge with Pearl
Izumi.; The BMC Racing Team video shows the view from behind the biker during the USA Pro Challenge at stage 5. The video
9. 8
shows the durability of the riding gear after an intense amount of time leading up to the final stretch of the race. The Up Close
with Jesse Thomas exhibits the career of Jesse Thomas. However there is nothing about the brand or gear specifically from Pearl
Izumi, but it discusses his path with the triathlons and future goals. Next, The BMC Racing Team Partnership video shows the
research that is used to create the correct gear needed for the BMC racing team. Athletes speak about the fit of the gear by
saying it “looks like it is painted on” as well as the gear specifically appointed to the weather climates. This video show the
different aspects that Pearl Izumi has for their athletes through the three videos by showing the athlete being active, a personal
interview, and the design and research that is put into the garments. Athletes are located on almost every page of their website
to incorporate advertising along with their sponsorship and to show the styles and designs for the different kinds of athletes. The
website shows different types of sports that pearl Izumi incorporates for both men and women as well as children: Running (men,
women), Riding (men, women, children), and Triathlon (men, women). (Screen shots taken and on page 4)
Pearl Izumi uses their athletes on the website as further promotion of their products. They showcase the athletes through their
research which includes The Speed Shop. Also, showcasing the design aspects of the gear can only go so far in convincing a
person that Pearl Izumi’s gear is the best. Personal reviews, especially from the athletes, are always better than just facts for
consumers considering to buy gear for either running, riding, or a triathlon.
However, it is possible that Pearl Izumi could utilize their athletes in a more productive way. Possibly if the athletes had more of
an opinion that is stated, the product could be more relatable and easier for a future possible customer to understand the
products better. Also showcasing the design aspects of the gear can only go so far in convincing a person that their gear is the
best. Personal reviews, especially from the athletes, is always better than just facts when buying gear for either running, riding, or
a triathlon.
10. 9
Target Market
Pearl Izumi serves men, women, and juniors, with many different categories. There is a feel as if this company doesn't
have a specific range or category of consumers; it seems that these products are made for any age that seeks the
need of performance apparel. From early teens into the 60’s and 70’s, as long as you're still active, this product will be
something that consumers will always explore when searching for performance items. Not only does the product
attract athletes, but with Pearl Izumi’s high performance clothing they will also attract those that love to wear
performance apparel even if they aren't very active, due to how comfortable the majority of their items are.
Branding
Pearl Izumi’s brand, ‘Run and Ride 365’ is considered the element that separates them from the rest of their
competition. Their brand is based off the notion that their target market consumer is not intimidated or discouraged by
weather, or other various elements of nature. This is because they have developed garments to withstand those bad
conditions and eliminate room for excuses. “Run and Ride 365” means that as humans we should be outside and active
365 days a year and not just when the weather is right. “Run and Ride 365” is about choosing the right garments to help
achieve this mission. These garments equal less weight, less bulk, and faster, lighter solutions.
The company also uses their logo and the company name, Pearl Izumi, as branding. For the majority of the products,
Pearl Izumi uses its unique P.I. logo. This shows up on the left-hand side of the shorts on the thigh, on the chest over the
heart for tops and jackets, and on cycling shoe straps and on the side of the running shoes. The P.I. logo also shows up
much larger and bolder in several of the graphic designs. The Pearl Izumi name is also spelled out on products using a
standard type-face, as well as in more script-like type-faces and fun, less business standard type-faces. The name acts
as the branding on waistbands, on shirts and shorts as a graphic print or design, and on other cycling shoe straps and
gloves.
Overall, Pearl Izumi utilizes its logo very well, keeping it simple. Depending on gender, the graphic design or the type-
face used to spell out, “Pearl Izumi,” may change to be more applicable to that gender.
11. 10
Design
All of Pearl Izumi’s products are innovative for their sport. The company designs with the committed athlete in mind.
They consider both comfort and quality in all of their products along with aesthetically appealing appearance. All of
their products are sleek and seemingly simple, but plentiful thought is put into every detail down to the zipper length, or
even the specific measurement of each piece to make their sport seemingly easier. Pearl Izumi’s tops and bottoms are
designed for minimal chaffing with excellent wicking properties for optimal comfort, along with a fit that is unbeatable.
Whether it be rain, snow, or shine—anybody should be able to get outside and do what they love, and with the
clothing that fits to comfort on the customers body. Their clothing comes in a variety of colors, but the designers know
it’s about more than just looking good, ultimately we all want the perfect product from fit, appearance, and
technology. Pearl Izumi is constantly looking for new innovations to advance the performance of their products. Their
clothing is high quality, designed to last.
12. 11
Technology
Pearl Izumi focuses mostly on how their gear fits and how it performs through the
physical activity that it was designed for. They have an enormous amount of
research that they conduct to make sure they have the best and most efficient
gear for the athletes. They truly value the athlete and how their gear works for
them. Overall, Pearl Izumi has established themselves extremely well in the active
wear industry. With over 60 years under their belts, they have produced
products that are utilized world round.
The P.I. Transfer is used for moisture management. The fabrics are created in
such a way that the fibers used are hydrophobic, so they are constantly pulling
moisture away from the skin. This allows for maximum comfort at all exertion
levels, whether it is hot or cold outside. This fabric is further enhanced with “In-R-
Cool Active Cooling Technology” and “Minerale” for the fastest dry time
available. The “Transfer Aero Technology” helps reduce drag.
The P.I. Thermal combines the moisture transfer capabilities with a warmth
system. The yarns of this fabric moves the moisture away from the skin, while the
inner side, the side of the fabric that touches the skin, is brushed, feels soft, and
captures heat. The fabric has a four-way stretch allowing for all types of athletic
movement and further comfort.
P.I. Barrier is lightweight, breathable, and versatile when providing protection
from wind and water. The fabric contains three levels of protection ranging from
featherweight to packable; Barrier Lite to Barrier Classic. The P.I. Barrier is
waterproof and windproof on the outside and the laminate inside provides
thermal regulation.
The P.I. Softshell was revolutionized almost two decades ago. It is a stretchable
knit face for both wind and water protection and uses an insulated, softer
interior for moisture transfer and thermal protection.

Competitor Analysis
Primal
Strengths:
o They give back to “cause” related organizations around the world
o Large sense of community within the company, a good environment to be in
appealing strongly to active consumers
o Website is easy to navigate which is valuable for consumer experience
o Different collections - military**, rock and roll, patriotic designs which is unique
and with the customization being so big currently, variety is a good element to
hold.
o Outlet - closeouts meaning consumers can get the extremely expensive items
for an extremely low price, if they wait for the sales
o Lists the various philanthropic and groups that they support
o Link to - photos, videos, Facebook such a simple but big key thing to have, seeing the apparel being used
can give it a different advertisement
o Customer login which is value to make the customer feel loyal, allowing wish lists, and past shopping, can
really be easy and enjoyable for customer if there is ever any questions or issues
o Appeals to riders of all levels, which is key to include every part of the target market and not just singling out a
specific group, a broad array of apparel is a good feature to hold
o Access to news and events tab on the front page which will allow those who are not only new, but active in
the cycling world up to date on the different cycling events and news
that are happening and that Primal wear is involved in
oActive in social media sites like Twitter, keeping the consumers updated
on the company, and continually keeping their name out in the world
which is something that has to be done in this day
oPartners with other brands, which promotes recognition, and may reflect
good sportsmanship, which many active people enjoy
16. 15
Weaknesses:
o Associated with beer in the sense they have beer sponsors, which may not be what extremely active athletes
are looking for
o Only has apparel and gear for cycling which excludes all the other major sports
o Not very much advertising other than their website, which can lead to the lack of knowledge of the brand to
many cyclist who would otherwise be purchasing apparel
o Higher price range than Pearl Izumi
o Not a very broad target market; also seems pretty local and not
global meaning they only target the consumers in the area near
them and don’t search on a larger scale for consumers
o Not a lot of “simple” choices, which is acceptable, but there is also a
need for some customization, and more high technology
o Not specific about clothing specifications which can be a huge
setback for this company when it comes to the consumers aiming to
purchase, but not being to find what they need, and can lead to a
switch in company they use to purchase products
17. 16
Champion Systems
Strengths:
o All custom apparel can be extremely desirable for the consumer to choose everything
they want about the product, making the customer usually extremely satisfied
o Website shows all their clubs & teams, charities, events and brands that they are
involved in which can be a big appeal to keep consumers coming back
o Has multiple sportswear, which shows diversity and gives the consumer more reasons to
come back to the brand and website
o Customer login (personal); once you
buy something from this company it
remembers, and has more of a loyal and personal feel for the
customer
o Connects easily to social media sites which can be
valuable to see more about the personality of the company and
the active wear on actual people
o Customer service is very easy to access, which is awesome
to be able to talk to actual people with ease about the products
o Global, simply by visiting the website the main screen
shows all of its location all
over the world, showing
how diverse the company is
o Appeals to multiple sports which gives more reasons to come back to
this company if you like the apparel in one sport section
o Explains perks of clothing design, customers love to read about
products especially when buying online, so this is a key thing to have
o Active in social media sites which, again, is good for the consumer to
really explore the depths of the company
o Not only do they have custom orders, it’s extremely diverse, and
pretty price reliable. You have the ability to make your own design
and have them manufacture it. It’s all very thoroughly explained on
the website also, making it easier for the consumer to decide what
and how they need it
18. 17
Weaknesses:
o Website is difficult to navigate; it’s a very sport specific website, so you must choose your country and then
choose the sport, making it seem almost too specified to a sport and not always overlapping apparel, which
may not work in their advantage
o Bad setup with pictures and colors, as they’re not as appealing as many other websites are
o All custom orders come with much difficulty and frustration when things aren’t perfect and exactly how the
customer may have pictured it
o Caters to so many different sports, which is an advantage, but can be almost overwhelming to those
searching the website
o Website is too busy; there is almost too much going on in a small amount of space, and it is not easy to
navigate from one sport to another
o Slow to ship their products, and you don’t receive apparel as soon as you may with other companies
Rapha
Strengths:
o Good layout and pictures used on the website, allowing for a great understanding and
appreciation for design
o Has stories and videos that explain their products and brand.
o Customer login to make the customer feel loyal
o Allows wish lists and past shopping, and can really be easy and enjoyable for customer if there is ever any questions or issues
o Classic cycling gear designs for men and women which create a basic product for customers that do not wish to have over the
top designs
o European based company
o Offers a lifestyle cycling clothing that allows the
consumer to decide which product they prefer
based on their lifestyle
o Addresses road, cyclocross, and urban cycling
19. 18
o After being started in 2007 they have expanded too many other countries such as UK, Japan, Australia, Europe and Southeast
Asia allowing them to become more known as a global company
o Involved in social media which gives them the opportunity to become more well-known by consumers outside of the cycling
industry
o Wide selection of products that can
be specified into categories such as
specific to weather
o Uses promotions to influence their
consumers to become more brand loyal,
which include gift vouchers as well as
clearance items that allow consumers to
spend less on products
o Free repair service for products that
become damaged
o Design specifications; all designs
explained very thorough and makes it
much easier for the customer to decide
what to purchase
o
Weaknesses:
o Bland colors that do not stand out or attract the consumer
o Some fonts are hard to read on website which makes consumers not want to continue to use the website
o Not very many physical store locations. Most of the process is done online which doesn’t give the consumer the chance to try
on products or feel them before they purchase them
o Very high prices for their technical apparel, one example being $400 for a wind jacket
20. 19
Fox Head Racing
Strengths:
o Very broad range of products and product categories which gives the consumer a variety to choose
from
o Appeals to multiple sports rather than just one, such as cycling

want more products
o Offers to men and women rather than just one gender
o Decently priced where there is no questions on what the price may be
o Offer products that can be distributed to all age ranges including children
Weaknesses:
o Not very specialized in their products to where the consumer knows for a fact that they would have a product
o Big in dirt biking products and not as much into cycling products
o Do not offer custom apparel on their website which can make the consumer unsatisfied with not having that option
o Not globally competitive, but are known in the U.S.
o Women’s apparel does not seem to be athletic based, but more of a lifestyle base
o More casual clothing offered rather than complex clothing such as the customization
o No “story” line shown for the consumer to understand who they are or what they are about
o No custom orders are taken
o Website doesn’t make the consumer feel connected on a personal level

Consumer Market
Women
Our target consumer for our select target market of women ages 20-30 years old can be specified into a distinct
type of women who enjoy the simple things that can be found in life by living an adventurous and healthy lifestyle.
Our consumers enjoy cycling, running, hiking, yoga, Pilates, spending time with friends, traveling, cooking, and
overall just being healthy through mind and soul. We could often find our target consumer enjoying long bike rides
or runs through town or on the mountain enjoying the outdoors. After a long day at work, they still find time
revitalize the soul with healthy choices The Infinite consumer is independent and fearless with a distinct and unique
sense of style. Our consumers are trend setters and style icons with a thirst to enjoy life to the fullest and
incorporate health and productivity into their day to day lives. We want all of our consumers, not just women, to
incorporate our clothing into this joyful and positive lifestyle. Our clothing will embody the creative, outgoing, and
fearless woman with a thirst for modern day adventure and a consistent healthy lifestyle.
37. 36
Men
Our target market is men and women ages 20-30. The male consumers in our target market are matured and very
independent. They are either working towards graduating college, entering into the workforce, starting, or moving
forward with their careers. Whichever stage of life these men are in, they are all working towards creating their
futures. They are all about the newest technology and having the latest and greatest products. Although cycling is
one of their favorite ways to stay active, there are many other activities that they participate in to stay in shape
and be healthy. They enjoy spending time outside, running, playing sports, and going to the gym. Additionally,
some of their other hobbies include spending time with friends and family, watching sports, or watching their
favorite television shows and movies. With their careers beginning, they are working up an income that allows
them to make purchases on luxury items such as cars and electronics.
39. 38
Trend Forecasting
The mega trend we chose was “Impulse.” As a group we felt that the Impulse trend was closely tied with what we are intending to
create. The concepts we came up with - The Beginning, Fast, The Finish Line, and Calm - are all relatable to this mega trend. Impulse
drew us all in right away from the very first page, “Impulse celebrates the importance of spontaneity, encouraging us to take risks, fear
less and create more.” Our inspirational concepts were developed by envisioning the target consumer moving through a race, a bike ride,
or even a training session. The consumer wouldn’t be afraid to try something new, they would take risks, they would “follow [their] bliss,
enjoy, indulge, let go.” The biggest draws to the Impulse trend were colors; the idea of spontaneity, fearless and risk; the retro
inspiration; and uniqueness. Our target consumer is drawn to these aspects in their everyday lives, not just through apparel, but through
the other products they buy, how they interact with others, their work ethic, and how they train. Impulse will not only provide further
inspiration for our collection, but will also be the support we need to defend our concepts and the design choices we have already been
making.
40. 39
Colors
Colors are an important aspect of any design line, as they can not only convey a wide array of moods or feelings, but they can
ultimately tie all of the pieces together. We found the Impulse colors to be appealing because they are bright and energetic. In recent
years, active wear has transitioned from plain black and white to vibrant colors and neon’s, especially with reflective pieces. Pearl
Izumi has even noticed the shift from plain to custom clothing with graphics, therefore bold color choices are preferable. Our target
market is full of young adults who look for fresh clothing and color is one of the first things that pulls the viewer’s eyes. The colors
displayed in the Impulse trend consists of colors like black, white, and gray, which are already established in Pearl Izumi apparel. It
also utilizes bright colors that are more fresh and natural than “in your face”. Colors like the salmon and light pink shades represent
the moments before the race starts, when your heart is pounding like a drum and the sun is starting to rise, our The Beginning
concept. Also, the teal color ties everything together in this category. The colors overall work well to promote an energetic feel,
which is key for both the Fast and The Finish Line inspirational concepts. The deeper colors maroon, cobalt blue, and grass green
will be within the Fast and Finish Line, category because of the expeditious feeling that a person experiences. The blacks also give
a sleek and clean look, a serious look, and when mixed with the deeper colors, making the feeling of fast even more real. The shades
of blue express a calm feeling, like cool water while the black and gray shades tie once again with the earth and nature. The Calm
category utilizes the softer pastels, representing a more relaxed state of mind.
41. 40
Spontaneity, Fearless, Risk.
One of the characteristics of the Impulse trend is the abstract designs and the spontaneous mix of geometry and functionality. It includes
impulsive colors, prints, and patterns. Our product line is the transition from The Beginning, Fast, The Finish Line, and then Calm, and the theme
of Impulse relates to our line inspiration because of the idea of spontaneity and fearlessness from the beginning to the end. This theme also takes
risks in the style choices, which relates to our design direction of taking risks during the beginning and fast phases.
The designs are eye catching and invigorating; something we feel our target consumer wants. The designs, they tantalize and awaken the
senses through spontaneous touches of color and dazzling patterns. This theme is meant to inspire and rejuvenate, with the bold colors and playful
patterns it stimulates and yet sedates at the same
time. The design is similar; like an athlete before a
race or a game; adrenaline rushing, heart racing, the
whole body is alert and yet at the same time, focused,
calm, and still. The rippling waters and rays of light
discussed in the Impulse theme reflect our Calm
concept, you are relaxed in the water after a race.
Impulse’s speed and light graphics and color play
represent our Fast category with the unexpected
color play and blending of colors as the cyclist speeds
past. The eclectic impulse is a collaboration of so
many prints and graphics in celebration, much like
the celebration found in our Finish Line concept.
The Beginning relates to the idea of the senses being
invigorated, enjoying the connection with nature, and
the experience of life. Traditional interpretations are
incorporated, yet tweaked with a modern and unique
twist. The design and structure of the line brings
about curiosity and interest through the styling,
material combination and aesthetic appeal, this line
can simply be referred to as electric.
42. 41
Retro
The influence of the retro aspect derived from Pearl Izumi’s initial concept of incorporating the culture and history of the Japanese retro
inspiration that was first established within the company, as it marks its 60th year constructing performance and footwear apparel for the
proclaimed athlete. Quoted from the Pearl Izumi website directly, now is the “time for reflection and rejuvenation.” As we choose to
move forward with the Megatrends theme of “Impulse” as an inspiration for our line, we incorporate a new sense of individuality and
customization into Pearl Izumi’s apparel. A new definition of Retro comes to mind, with a whole new twist. We will incorporate an
eclectic based apparel line that screams fearlessness and spontaneity. Retro speaks to us as a form of bringing a culture of art and history
back to life with a modern twist and quirk that promotes self-reliance and a unique form of style that only Pearl Izumi consumers will be
able to experience. We want our consumers to inhale the
simpler things in life and let that carry out through their
athletic experience with our playful patterns and prints,
vivid colors, exaggerated textures, and edgy effects that
instill them in a world of their own.
The “Impulse” mega trend draws on the tradition of
sport, the timeless uses of stripes, colors, prints, and the
homage to the “Varsity Letter. ” The inspirational
silhouettes found in the Impulse trend draw inspiration
from previous decades to liven up active wear. Using
color blocking and prints, as well as mixing fabrics,
Impulse takes the idea of retro and makes it new. This is
something our consumer will be looking for. Not only
can these pieces be made in a ready-to-wear aspect, but
can also be customized. The idea of glow in the dark will
take the retro and aesthetically pleasing silhouettes of
typical bike wear to a whole new level. Our concepts
and inspiration really look to clean and simple silhouettes
from cycling decades past, that Pearl Izumi also pays
respects to, and the Impulse theme will give us a way to
update those retro looks and make the designs seem like
they were inspired by the future, and not the past.
43. 42
Unique
The idea of unique is huge in our concepts, in the Impulse mega trend, and to our target customer. Having apparel that is new and
different, that allows our consumer to stand is what they are looking. Impulse combines colors and prints in ways that haven’t been seen
yet or have barely been seen in active wear. Providing our customer with fun, fresh, and funky apparel, will appeal to them greatly.
Showing that we aren’t afraid to express ourselves in design will allow the customer out to feel free to express themselves.
This uniqueness falls back to the idea of customization. There are websites that allow for customization of cycling apparel, and we hope
to provide that to our target customer to some extent. There still needs to be uniqueness in ready-to-wear cycling apparel, but a freedom
for more unique expression if desired.

Our Story
When imaging being actual product developers and designers for a company with success and largeness as Pearl Izumi, we started from the
basics when coming up for the inspirations of this line. We started by thinking of words, and different attributes to cycling that are essential,
and came up with, what better then to base our line concept off of a race. From The Beginning, to being Fast during that race, to hitting
that Finish Line, and ultimately the Calm you receive after such a strong accomplishment. We took our ideas and developed our line in the
concept of a story, and took those ideas and incorporated them into our designs and the three different sections of our line, each very unique.

Your legs are fueling the machine beneath you, swallowing the path laid ahead. You’re racing across the earth’s surface, feeling one with

The eyes flicker gold with a medal in sight. You are racing the clock, racing those around you, but it isn’t just about winning. You pushed
yourself. You made it. It’s not only your team supporting you now, but everybody, supporting and celebrating.

This is our “Calm” section of our line, and with the light blue paneling on the front of the tank top, we felt as if it just made a little to hectic for
the idea of the calm, so we took of the panel, and also added a gradient pattern to the side sections, and made sure to incorporate that to each
piece of the Calm tank tops.
