Pearl Izumi Review + Champions Team
Pearl Izumi is a company that sells performance apparel and
shoes for riding, running and triathalons. For 2015, Pearl Izumi launched a new
ambassador program called the Run365 Champion ambassador team. They looked for
people who would inspire everyone who runs. They chose 250 people from 36
states and Puerto Rico . They even have a
couple from my state in the Kalamazoo
area where I went to college!
They have people who only run a few miles per week to the
ultrarunner who does very long races. They want to show that you can run any
time, in any weather, 365 days per year! Very cool! They are helping to host
fun runs, demos and represent Pearl Izumi while running.
I am now on
my third pair of Pearl Izumi shoes. I am a big fan of the brand but do prefer
to wear their shoes for workouts other than running. I wear them often on
walks, weight lifting, etc. I prefer shoes with more support for running because
I tend to get injured easily. For shorter runs though, I do like these.
For my
review, I was sent the women's Pearl Izumi E:Motion road shoe. These come in the gorgeous
aqua color that I was sent and a purple and pink color. Pearl Izumi shoes run a
little bit small so I order mine in 1/2 size up from my usual size.
This shoe is
a best seller for Pearl Izumi. The shoe has forefoot flexibility, enhanced heel
cushioning and improved traction. The shoes feel nice and light on my feet. I
have been wearing these and love how they feel on my feet. I think that they
are especially a great shoe for summer when it is hot and you just want to wear
something light.
The shoes offer a transfer dry spacer mesh that helps to keep
your feet cool and dry. Runners who need neutral shoes or supinators can wear
these. These shoes retail for $120. I am very happy with them and know that
they will get a ton of use this spring and summer as I am so excited and
looking forward to exercising outside in the nice weather.
You can purchase Pearl Izumi shoes on Amazon.com.
