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.
The Assos 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 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.
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.
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.

Times have moved on when mountain bike clothing was overly baggy and rather ill-fitting. The TRAIL Cargo Shorts T3 are instead designed to eliminate excess bulk and yet maintain awesome freedom of movement, just what's needed when you're moving and reacting to ever-changing terrain. An update to the waist design improves the fit compared to previous models and pockets are now easier to access too, even for those with larger hands or when wearing gloves. The Type.OF11 fabric used for the shorts is highly abrasion resistant and with a bi-stretch woven construction. When pedalling uphill, traversing across trails, hitting downhills and just getting rowdy it provides fabulous freedom of movement. Comfort and freedom are further enhanced by Sens ST textile inserts. This lightweight fabric adds a touch of compression where needed and gives you outstanding breathability alongside a super-soft feel against the skin. Fast-drying, flexible, UPF50+ and with durable water repellent (DWR) treatment, these shorts protect you against all the elements. Assos has also been very meticulous with the fit of the Trail Cargo Shorts. The elasticated waist construction known as the AZPtech, ensures a smooth and comfortable feel, lessening pressure across the waist while still holding firm. The trim fit also prevents snagging on the saddle, leaving you free to move around the bike with ease.

Assos' primary aim with the TRAIL TACTICA Liner Shorts HP T3 has been to engineer a liner short that's incredibly light, impressively breathable and yet retains off-road-ready durability and protection. This is a liner you'll love to wear with your favourite over-shorts. Superlight Performance The Tactica liners make use of incredibly light materials to keep you cool and fresh during intense off-road rides. This includes a mesh with hydrophilic treatment that speeds moisture evaporation, keeping you cooler for longer. At the waist, the zeroPressure construction does what it says, offering a soft and flexible fit that keeps the shorts in place without undue pressure. A high degree of breathability keeps you feeling fresh during high-intensity XC and gravel racing. More Protection If you find yourself sliding out on loose trails and gravel, the large ImpactorTec T3 hip pad lessens the chance of painful gravel rash. With a jersey-soft inner face and increased cooling, there's no compromise to comfort either. Off-Road HP T3 Seat Pad Using 9mm thick shock-absorbing foam layers, the Off-Road HP T3 Seat Pad is made specifically for the more upright riding position associated with gravel and mountain bikes and soaks up trail chatter. Thermoformed shapes also reduce ridges and irritation when pedalling while allowing freedom of movement, ideal when tackling sinewy singletrack. The T3 also sees familiar Assos pad features deployed to deliver airy comfort. The goldenGate 2.0 lets the pad move with your body rather than in opposition to it. 3D Waffle, a 3-layer perforated foam, reduces weight while optimising breathability. And kratercooler technology sees perforation across the leading edge, drawing air across the pad and keeping you cooler and drier.
