Ready for Anything To the front of the Women's UMA GT Winter Jacket EVO, Assos deploy their NEOS Medium fabric, a softshell 3-layer thermal material. This provides a very effective barrier against bitterly cold winds and will shrug off rain and road spray too. While this front panel locks in warmth, a lighter-weight version of the same fabric, NEOS light, sits over the shoulders, outer arms and upper back. This is used to prevent overheating and to maintain a high level of breathability, keeping you comfortable if you ramp up the speed and intensity. Lastly, soft and fleecy RX fabric on the back and underarms provides warmth and breathability too, while also delivering an impeccable fit. This complements perfectly Assos' raglan sleeves that both works to reduce drag and allows complete freedom of movement. Practicality Built-in A long winter ride needs plenty of fuelling and so Assos give you three large capacity rear pockets, set at the perfect height and depth for easy access but still keeping the contents completely secure. The pockets are supported by Assos' S7 knit stabilisation, this single-stretch material supports the pockets vertically to prevent any sagging. For rides that finish late into the evening or start before sunrise, reflective details keep you visible on the road. Harsh winter weather won't slow you down when you pull on your UMA GT EVO Winter Cycling Jacket. Incredibly comfortable and highly protective across a wide range of conditions this is a winter-cycling tour-de-force.
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. Endurance Fit and Feel With a focus on long training rides, endurance events, indoor training, and everyday cycling comfort, Assos chose to use their Type.429 fabric for the UMA 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 is based upon Assos' race models but it's more accommodating of different shapes and sizes. The comfort also extends to the leg grippers. 3.5mm in depth and using LYCRA® with woven silicone grip, they provide a secure non-bulge fit while giving a smooth and uninterrupted transition from shorts to skin. Women's UMA GT C2 Insert With 9mm of cushioning and the 'floating' design of goldenGate location to move the pad with your body not against you, the Women's UMA GT C2 pad is intensely comfortable, supportive and shock-absorbing. Compressive foam layers 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.

Taking feedback on their renowned T.LaalalaiShorts_s7, Assos have given their women's specific bib short design a new lease of life with improvements to fabrics, fit and convenience. The result of their hard work is the Women's UMA GTV Bib Shorts C2.

Improvements have also been made to the fabrics. Ossidia fabric has been deployed, reducing overall weight while making no compromise to elasticity, compression, or UV protection (UPF50+).
