Made for brisk-weather riding, the Men's Attack Tights strike a smart balance between coverage and comfort. These men's cycling tights are made from nylon Transfer fabric that wicks sweat and offers lightweight insulation, ideal when it's too chilly for shorts but not cold enough for heavy layers.
With no built-in chamois, these tights are designed to be worn over your favorite padded bike liner or cycling shorts. Reduced paneling and seams provide a smooth, low-bulk fit for dynamic rides, while the wide plush elastic waistband ensures the tights stay comfortably in place. BioViz™ reflective elements boost visibility in low light, and sustainable construction with recycled content adds eco-conscious value to your ride.

USE SIMPLE DETERGENTS WITH NO ADDITIVES Never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. The general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. Many detergents with additives leave "surfactants" behind on a fabric's fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Typically the best detergents to use will have "Clear" or "Free" in their names. Don't pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. If something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. This will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. READ THE CONTENT CARE LABEL: On the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. On garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. Follow those directions. On finer fabrics, use a "Gentle" cycle. Close all zippers, attach "hook and loop" closures on gloves YOU CAN USE THE DRYER, CAREFULLY: If you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (Do NOT use a commercial dryer or a "Hot" setting). This will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. If in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.

Fits perfectly!
"Unlike some other brands, Pearl Izumi bike clothing is actually sized to fit normal bike riders, not short and skinny Italian racers. I appreciate the proper sizing, the great fit, and the quality."
Pearl Izumi Attack Tights
"Excellent Product. Its my second pair and is a great protection from sun as well"
Good product but needed XL instead of XXL
"Good product but needed XL instead of XXL"
"Great fit. You can always count on Pearl izumi."
Light weight tights
"Not at all thermal, think nylon running tights, not a bad thing, just different from the norm for cycling tights. On the plus side if it warms up on your ride they aren't too hot. They run Really small but I managed to get them on since not returnable."
Men’s Attack Tights
"I will return these as they are not true to size, and cut way too narrow, which will not allow for me to wear them over my Bib Shorts during cooler temps."
Great tights
"These are a basic tight and as described, used best with bibs or cycling shorts underneath. Fit is excellent, good compression. Just wish they had a drawstring to keep them from slipping down. Problem solved with suspenders."
Beware no drawstring
"Good compression and fit however due to lack of drawstring tights will not stay up"
Disappointed
"I took a flyer on the largest size, only to find they no longer come with a cinch or drawstring. They eventually slide down my keister. Color me a little annoyed…"
Too Small
"I'm 77 yrs. old, 6'2" and weigh 208. I ordered a Large and I put them on but found them too tight and when I would bend over, not having a draw string to tighten around the waist, I noticed the pants began to fall in the back."
