I like both PI and Shebeest. If I'm feeling "cheap", I also don't mind REI's house brand, Novara. I have a 3 Novara jerseys (long, short, & sleeveless) that I seem to wear more than any of my PI tops. I like the roominess and generous cut of them. Most of the Pearl stuff seems to run on the snug side for me (I have a very broad upper back) and their tops "pull and pinch" in the wrong places.

As for bottoms, all of my cycling shorts are PI...with the exception of one pair of Shebeest. I would definitely buy more Shebeest shorts in the future, though...they're fit is perfect.

I love my Hincapie cycling shorts for long rides. Chamois is good and seamless and the legs offer loads of compression. Everything stays in place so there is little friction or chafing. They are not cheap, but are worth it to me.

Descente shorts !!! I know you can get better shorts if you spend more money but these babies are 65 bucks and have tretaed me very well > I especially love the wide waistband - so comfortable. They look really good too in the front... you know what I mean ladies.

Love my PI shorts.  The microsensor is really comfortable for the long rides.  I like their jerseys, too.  They are cute and long enough to cover in the back while riding.

I have a pair of these in pink! They are great. Wish I had bought a pair of just plain black too (since not all of my jerseys go with pink really well). They are super-comfy and don't dig anywhere (like around the waist - ick).

I love everything PI that I own.  My favourite piece this year is my Optik vest. Wow.  I wear it all the time and I can stuff it in the bag under my seat when I don't need it!

Most of my stuff is PI. I like the short shorts, and they fit! I gotta say though, that my velour SheBeest leopard jersey is awesome. And I do like my one pair of Castelli shorts a LOT. They have a high waist so it doesn't matter what jersey I wear - no sunburn stripe across my low back.
