When it comes to cycling in winter, it’s the extremities, and particularly the hands, that are often the first to suffer from the arrival of lower temperatures. But with the Winter Gloves EVO, and their insulated construction, you have a reliable barrier against the cold. The excellent windproof performance also prevents heat loss, boosting comfort still further. While not waterproof, a water-repellent finish certainly fends off intermittent light rain and spray from damp roads. Assos have also improved the palm when compared to previous iterations. The microfibre material is now less prone to soak up moisture and just like the rest of the glove it’s also thermal, breathable and water-repellent. Touchscreen compatibility also means easy control of your phone and GPS devices without exposing your hands to the cold. Across the palm, padding provides pressure relief while the anatomic shape prevents bunching and improves bar grip and dexterity. Extended cuffs also prevent gaps between gloves and jacket sleeves, creating a secure seal against the cold.
In order to get the best balance of warmth and breathability, Assos have used a blend of wool and synthetic fibres for their Ultraz Winter Socks EVO. The wool yarns provide natural insulation against the cold, even when wet, and give them odour resistance too. Meanwhile, the synthetic yarns give the socks plenty of stretch and deal quickly with sweat, ensuring your feet remain fresh and dry. When it comes to insulation, this has been boosted across the forefoot, providing outstanding warmth during the coldest days on the bike. Seamless construction provides an irritation-free fit while compressive support keeps your socks firmly in place and prevents bunching.
Ultraz is Assos' range of products for the deepest and coldest of winter conditions and the ASSOSOIRES Ultraz Winter Gloves live up to that billing, with remarkable levels of insulation while keeping bulk to a minimum. The secret to their performance is the combination of twinDeck, a highly insulating double-layer fabric, and their membrane–backed Airblock windproof textile, thermal lining, and neoprene cuffs. Together these materials grab body heat and simply won't let it go. The high level of breathability prevents sweaty hands - vital for long-ride comfort as a build-up of sweat soon leads to rapid cooling - and excellent water-resistance keeps your hands protected should rain showers, sleet or snow arrive. Low in volume, these gloves feature extended neoprene cuffs—for that crucial jacket-to-glove intersection - and targeted palm padding throughout. As far as your hands are concerned, winter riding will never have been so comfortable.
Winter is where you lay the foundation for summer fitness and with the Women's UMA GT Ultraz Winter Bib Tights you've no excuses when it comes to getting those base miles racked up. Assos' most protective regularFit bib-tights, they feature a double-layer construction and a membrane-backed front panel to give you outstanding levels of insulation, weather protection and breathability. TwinDeck Protection Insulation and weather-protection start with the highly insulating brushed-back RX Heavy matched to an outer layer of ultrathin 2-layer softshell, with PU bonded membrane. This TwinDeck construction provides incredible warmth as well as a 100% windproof barrier and excellent water resistance. This particular lay-up is used across the leg and glute panels to fend off cold temperatures, rain, road spray and even snow. And Breathe Being warm is all well and good but cycling can soon cause a sweat. Don't deal with this excess moisture and you'll very quickly start to feel uncomfortable and chilly. To deal with this Assos deploy their highly breathable RX Light over the back of the legs, letting sweat easily escape before discomfort sets in. This also has the added benefit of being highly flexible, giving you smooth and unrestricted pedalling. Speaking of flexibility, the UMA GT Ultraz are tailored with Assos' women's regularFit. This offers a lightly compressive fit but one you'll find is easy to move about in. Every panel is shaped to flex and follow the body through the pedal stroke, offering the ultimate in flexibility and comfort. Women's UMA GT EVO Insert On the saddle, you'll enjoy the support and comfort of the women's specific Women's UMA GT EVO seat pad. Reversed seams offer unrivalled comfort when pedalling while 8mm Memory foam provides superb vibration damping and support across your sit bones. The patented 3-layer foam design, Assos call it 3D waffle, increases breathability and eliminates excess weight too. And lastly, the goldenGate technology gives you a pad that moves with you rather than acting against you.
The Winter Cap is made with Assos’ twinDeck double layer insulation system, holding securely onto the body heat you generate when cycling. Excellent breathability also prevents you from feeling a chill when you’re working up a sweat. The skull cap is of a circular seamless construction, giving it a snug but flexible fit. This makes sure it slips easily under your cycle helmet while the design also accommodates both long and short hair.
