To guarantee a snug fit, Assos uses ten panels and five different fabrics to give the RS Aero SF Gloves a streamlined and 'wrinkle free' fit. Its 3D shaping follows the anatomical structure of the human hand as it grips the bars leading to incredible comfort. Breezer Tex fabric is used across the back of the gloves, this extremely light fabric has a mesh-like structure delivering both comfort and a high degree of breathability. The palm features strategically positioned pads, wrapped in perforated synthetic leather for durability, and this combination offer excellent protection while not hindering dexterity, bar feel and road feedback. The lightweight palm works brilliantly with the smooth back to give you a smooth, low-bulk fit with a barely-there feel.
Stripping the summer shell down to its bare essentials, the UMA GT Summer Wind Vest from Assos is perfect for when you need a little something extra but don’t want to overheat or be weighed down. Its form-fitted construction allows you to keep up those hard-won aero gains, while still being stretchy enough to allow for full freedom of movement through the Glossy fabric featuring in the side panels. Not only that, but it’s also extremely packable, which means you can pop it in the bottom of a bag or jersey pocket as a great just-in-case option should the wind pick up on a warm day. Never leave home without it.
The Women's Trail Liner Cycle Shorts are finely tailored undershorts, giving you the ultimate in luxurious comfort when taking on rougher riding surfaces. At the heart of the shorts is an Assos' Off-Road seat insert, positioned to take into account the more upright riding position of mountain and gravel bikes. Its plush design boasts 10mm of memory foam for shock absorption and provides support for the sit bones while also alleviating pressure so you can ride in comfort. The Women's Trail Liners are highly breathable, ensuring you remain dry and fresh all-day even as the day heats up and with their external seams, you're assured of a chafe and irritation-free fit. The unique v-shape waist design ensures the shorts sit perfectly while in a riding position and allow maximum freedom of movement. They also feature 8mm viscoelastic polyurethane impactPads, providing extra hip protection should the trail get the better of you and you take a tumble. Lightweight, super-stretchy and ergonomically designed, they'll take your trail riding comfort to a whole new level.
Assos' design team spent countless hours riding, testing and refining patterns and materials for their Trail FF Gloves. The extensive testing led them to a design that is pre-shaped, the 3D structure mimicking the anatomical shape of the hands when gripping handlebars. This carefully engineered design provides the right level of support where you need it and reduces bulk where you don't. The palm makes use of a two-layer construction, the first layer is a durable 3D mesh to which a light perforated padding is added at the upper sections, plus across the thumb where body weight is often focused. To boost durability, the fingers benefit from a double layer of material and silicone on the braking fingers gives firm control of the levers. Lastly, a flexible cuff provides a sleek and comfortable fit while minimising weight.

While the fit of the Women's Short Sleeve Trail Jersey is loose, it's also tuned to minimise flapping fabric while still letting you flow with the trail, manoeuvre across technical trail features and enjoy easy movement whatever the trail demands of you. The cut can accommodate pads too, so you have a jersey that spans across disciplines from XC to Enduro and everything in between. The jersey is made with Assos' circular-knit Triangle textile, which boasts incredible lightness and fantastic breathability. As the day heats up the fabric will wick away sweat to ensure you're fresh on the way up and it's quick-drying too, so you'll enjoy dry comfort as you flow back down the trail. Assos have also added breathable bi-stretch mesh under the arms enhancing airflow and the feeling of comfort even as the sun beats down. Whether it's an after-work trail spin, an all-day epic or taking on an Enduro, the Women's Short Sleeve Trail Jersey is designed to excel, whatever comes your way.

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.
Made from InfraRed Yarns with a high percentage of elastomer, the RSR Socks are designed for the rigours of both racing and hard training sessions. The elastomer provides compressive support across the foot and when blended with Lycra you'll enjoy a firm non-slip hold over the ankle and lower leg. A mesh arch support provides a boost to comfort and increases airflow to rapidly evaporate sweat leading to a cooler foot. With their seamless construction, you'll also enjoy friction-free comfort - these are socks you'll soon forget you're wearing.
The Assos Women's UMA GT Spring/Fall Jacket is brilliant for cool and breezy days on the bike and, should the conditions turn to damp and drizzly, it's water-resistant too. A 3-layer softshell, with a NOES MILD membrane, provides complete protection from cold winds, rain showers, road-spray and plunging temperatures – all without sacrificing breathability. On the tops of the arm, a brushed bi-stretch RX material adds insulation, while the under arms and back-panel boost breathability with Type.157 – a breathable, circular-knit fabric. Designed with regularFit, the Assos Women's UMA GT Spring/Fall Jacket is built for optimal riding comfort, allowing room for additional layers, should you need them. The Triple Ramp rear pockets provide plenty of space for gels and bars on longer rides and, reflective accents ensure you're more visible when the light fades. The weather is hard to predict, but the Assos Women's UMA GT Spring/Fall Jacket will ensure you’re cycling comfortably through whatever spring or autumn has in store.
In the cooler air of spring and autumn, the front of the Assos TRAIL Spring/Fall Men's Jacket protects your body and shoulders with an all-new, ultra-soft material called RX TECH Melange. Brushed on the inside, it provides just the right level of insulation to keep you warm as you swoop and roll down free-flowing singletrack. Featuring the same textile technology as the Assos TRAIL jerseys, the light and flexible back-panel material adds breathability and pulls moisture away from the layers below. Inside, the sleeves feature a lightly brushed RX fabric for a touch of extra insulation. They also feature abrasion-resistant dyneRope - fifteen times stronger than steel, this fibre is blended with a black polyethene and is strategically placed to protect exposed areas. It covers the elbows for added protection against scratching, pulling and abrasion from trailside obstacles. The double-slider zip helps you regulate your ventilation from top or bottom and, the inside pocket is the perfect place for keys and other valuables. Assos' trailFit keeps the cut slim and trim so you're not slowed down but it still offers the stretch and flexibility you need to hit berms, kickers and rocky, rooty sections with unhindered freedom of movement and brimming with confidence.
Extensive riding and testing in spring and autumn led Assos to create the ASSOSOIRES Spring Fall Socks, marrying the lightweight comfort of your favourite summer socks with a touch of insulation to fend off cooler temperatures. To enhance moisture transfer the socks feature a unique hexagonal and square knit, it quickly wicks moisture through the yarns to the outer surface, ensuring your feet stay dry and comfortable inside your shoes. The seamless construction removes any irritation, a ribbed arch provides enhanced support across the foot and a reflective band up the back keeps you safe and seen in lower light conditions. With the spring/fall yellow climaCode you'll also know which socks to grab from your sock drawer.
