To take on the demands of cool and changeable conditions Assos engineered two new textiles specifically for the task and used them for the Women's UMA GT Spring Fall Half Tights. First comes RX EVO, this is used across most of the tight, it's cosy and warm and features an ECO water–repellent treatment for extra comfort in damp, misty and drizzly conditions. Meanwhile, the back of the legs features RX Light, a highly breathable material with extra flexibility, ensuring you don't overheat and you also enjoy unrestricted pedalling. With a fold-over front panel design at the waist, you'll also enjoy a smooth, pressure-free transition between the body and fabric. Speaking of flexibility, the Women's UMA GT Spring Fall Half Tights have a lightly compressive fit and are cut with Assos' regularFit meaning they're performance orientated but not as tight as a pure race-bred garment. The high degree of stretch means the tights flex with your pedal stroke and the tailoring ensures you enjoy complete support and comfort of the upper leg muscles, knees, and calves while in motion. Meanwhile, when you're on the saddle, support is provided by the women's specific UMA S7 EVO pad, it features 8mm of memory foam, 3DWaffle, a patented, three-layer perforated foam and goldenGate technology to deliver exceptional comfort on any ride, long or short. Too mild for winter tights but too cold for shorts? It's here that the UMA GT Spring Fall Half Tights come into their own, balancing warmth, breathability and weather protection for those days when you're just not sure what spring or autumn cycling days have in store.
For their Mille GT Waist Cycle Shorts, Assos start with their comfortably compressive, Type.429 Titanio fabric. This 4-way stretch textile ensures a brilliant fit with optimal flexibility for all-day pedalling comfort. It's at the waist where inferior shorts fall down but the Mille GT Half Shorts excel. The waist design features super-soft Aerofit fabric in a fold-over construction to the front, delivering incredible pressure-free comfort across the stomach. At the back, a tall elastic hem, with silicone grippers, holds the shorts firmly in place - no annoying slippage here. Talking of slippage, the superFlat leg grippers also ensure the shorts don't move, no matter how hard you're pedalling. Next comes the seat pad and here you'll enjoy the support of Assos' Mille Evo pad. The 8mm of memory foam is combined with a 3D waffle top sheet, 3 layers of perforated foam, to give the sit bones precise support while reducing bulk and enhancing breathability. Meanwhile, kraterCool ventilation holes in the pad keep air circulating to keep sensitive areas cooler. With goldenGate technology you'll also enjoy optimal freedom of movement for smooth pedalling.
For their UMA GT Half Cycle Shorts, Assos start with their comfortably compressive Type.439 Diadema fabric with built-in odour control. This unique textile has 2 different rates of 4-way stretch, incredibly hard to achieve, ensuring an incredible fit with optimal flexibility for all-day pedalling comfort. It's at the waist where inferior shorts fall down but the UMA GT Half Cycle Shorts excel. The waist design features super-soft and breathable Aerofit fabric in a fold-over construction to the front, delivering incredible pressure-free comfort across the stomach. The same construction technique and fabric are used at the leg grippers, creating shorts that grip without excess pressure. Next comes the seat pad, and here you'll enjoy the support of Assos' exceptional UMA GT women's specific pad. The 8mm of memory foam is combined with a 3D waffle top sheet and 3 layers of perforated foam, to give the sit bones precise support while reducing bulk and enhancing breathability. With goldenGate technology, you'll also enjoy optimal freedom of movement for smooth pedalling.
The UMA GT Summer Half Tights EVO are made with Assos' proprietary Type.429 fabric, giving the waist tights their distinctive and incredibly comfortable feel against the skin. Not just that, they're also highly breathable and have built-in UPF50 (ultraviolet protection factor), keeping you comfortable when the temperatures rise and the sun is blazing. Tailored with Assos' regularFit, they're lightly compressive where they need to be but not as tight as their racingFit garments. The shaped panels fit beautifully, wrapping the upper and lower leg to provide muscle support and flex smoothly with your every pedal stroke. At the waist, you'll find the deep fold-over design, in highly breathable and high stretch Aerofit material, creates a smooth fit with a pressure-free hold. Inside the tights, the UMA GT EVO seat pad features 8mm of memory foam to offer exceptional support and comfort. This is combined with a 3D waffle top sheet, 3 layers of perforated foam, to give the sit bones precise support while reducing bulk and enhancing breathability. With goldenGate technology you'll also enjoy optimal freedom of movement for smooth pedalling.
Less is More From the demands of long-distance cycling to the short and intense efforts of indoor training, the MILLE GT Half Shorts C2 give you superb muscle support, tuned flexibility and a premium pad that delivers outstanding comfort on the saddle. All without the need for a bib upper. While bib shorts are supported by the bib straps, the GT Half Shorts make use of Assos' zeroPressure waistband design. To the back and sides, this design provides a firm hold, preventing slippage while the highly flexible front panel allows optimal flexibility for both deep breathing and low riding positions. Endurance Fit and Feel With a focus on long training rides and endurance events, but also everyday cycling comfort, Assos chose to use their Type.429 fabric for the GTs. This highly functional fabric delivers a snug flexible fit to ensure you slip through the air with ease. It's also highly breathable, perfect for high summer rides and durable to resist the abuse of countless kilometres on the saddle. And with light compression, helps push back fatigue as your rides get longer, matching the longer days of summer. Assos AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) Regular Fit Finding the perfect harmony of long-ride comfort and smooth, flexible fit, the Assos AEPD Regular Fit isn't so compressive as their RaceFit but it's certainly not going to slow you down. The aero comfort also extends to the leg grippers. 6mm in depth and using LYCRA® with woven silicone grip, they provide a secure fit while giving a smooth and uninterrupted transition from shorts to skin. MILLE GT C2 Insert With 3mm of extra cushioning, the MILLE GT C2 pad is more comfortable, more supportive and more shock-absorbing than ever. Compressive foam layers, up to 11mm in depth, provide endurance-focused support on the saddle. The 3D Waffle design uses a three-layer construction, with perforated foams to enhance breathability and airflow. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation while the odour-resistant top sheet maintains freshness.
While it may seem easy to make waist cycling shorts, the absence of bib straps for support can cause issues, with lesser shorts slipping, pinching and constricting. Assos have worked hard to engineer out those issues, with the Women's UMA GT Half Shorts C2 (long) giving a beautifully secure and comfortable fit. It's at the waist that this perfect fit is optimised. The forgiving zeroPressure design keeps the shorts firmly in place but not at the expense of comfort or flexibility. When you're breathing deeply during harder efforts and adopting low riding positions this makes all the difference. You'll also find a mesh waistband extending upwards, ensuring there are no revealing gaps between your shorts and jersey.
