The Pearl Izumi outlet isn't that exciting. I'm really not that impressed by their shorts. The only ones that at all appeal to me at all are so expensive! They do have some nice long sleeve jerseys, that are soft inside.

I can relate to your angst about local stores and the lack of clothing. I live in a small town, and we are relegated to a selection of about 4 boring shirts and a few shorts mixed in to the rack of mostly mens shorts. I hate the clothes here! The area is kind of earthy so all we get to chose from is solid colored, pastel, subdued garbage. Hello, I wanna scare the wildlife!!!
