PEARL iZUMi

Elevate Knee Guard

An ideal ride is one in which you push your skillsets just a bit to find that edge, but not so much that the ride comes to an abrupt end. The Elevate is a medium-weight and breathable slip-on knee guard that offers protection against minor abuse you'll find during enduro and trail sessions. If you do happen to tuck the front wheel under while lining up that berm, the D30 LPI padding absorbs some of the impact and the Cordura 4-way stretch fabric fends off abrasion.

As the ride turns more metabolic and the heat picks up in the switchbacks, the mesh fabric provides breathability, and the full rear-knee cut-out dumps heat and eliminates bunching. Pearl Izumi uses a long knee warmer length design for the fit, as well as comfortable elastic and silicone to ensure ride-long placement so that you can focus on the trails.
