To give a versatile and packable vest Assos have stripped back the garment to the essentials, using highly functional fabrics to deliver exceptional performance. The MILLE GT Wind Vest is made with Assos' Foil Ultra textile to the front. This lightweight fabric is windproof, water-repellent and breathable so you'll enjoy a nicely regulated micro-climate inside. Meanwhile, the side panels use 'Glossy' a warp-knit windproof textile which gives extra stretch to enhance the fit while still maintaining breathability. The combination strikes a balance of low pack weight and protection son you're happy to take the GT Vest on every ride without sacrificing too much space in pockets. In terms of the fit of the vest, this garment is less compressive than a racingFit, but more fitted than Assos' comfortFit. It bridges the gap between the two and provides the ideal balance between comfort, freedom of movement and performance.
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.
You can never tell with the weather - even when the forecast is good you can see a sudden cool wind pick up or you'll feel the chill as you descend off a high mountain peak. The MILLE GT Wind Vest C2 is made to be super packable, making sure you always have windproof protection to hand when cycling. Performance Perfected The team at Assos have improved the fit, with a more flexible wind-blocking front and elastic mesh rear panel offering a more snug fit that also rustles less when you're at speed. There's also an improved armhole elastic, reducing friction but maintaining a perfect fit. The updated mesh back also reduces weight, bringing the GT Wind Vest C2 in at an impressive 75 grams (size medium). Once the weather clears or you hit the warmth of the valley, it packs up easily into a jersey pocket. Featured Fabrics To the front of the gilet, Assos' Breaker fabric prevents cold winds from getting inside while a water-repellent finish shrugs off a light rain shower. To the back, tear-resistant and bi-stretch Ventamesh maintains excellent breathability and airflow, preventing you from overheating and getting too sweaty. Assos regularFit The MILLE GT Wind Vest C2 benefits from Assos' regularFit. It's streamlined enough to minimise wasted energy but has the space to allow easy movement and to fully enjoy carbo-loading at a mid-ride cafe stop.
Bringing a new-found level of protection to your upper body, the Flow Protective Vest works with a certified Xmatter™ protective foam to protect your spine and back.

Meeting stringent European safety standards, the Flow Protective Vest really does deliver the highest levels of comfort and safety for days spent kicking up roost.
When two-wheeled adventure calls but the weather is looking on the cold side, the Women's Giara Layer Vest is the perfect body warmer to choose. This multi-layer gilet is both warm and breathable, just right for a ride where pace and effort levels can vary wildly as the terrain changes. Biting cold winds are no problem thanks to the windproof outer layer. Elsewhere, the 3D polyester fabric inside and brushed double-layer back are both impressively good at dealing with any perspiration you build up when cycling. And once you add the Thermore® insulation, this is a vest with far more warmth than your traditional cycling gilet. Mesh chest pockets give you extra storage beyond your cycling jersey and reflective trims add eye-catching detail when you're too busy enjoying your ride to end it anytime before nightfall.
Facing into the weather, the front and shoulders of the Women's Fiandre Light NoRain Vest are windproof. This keeps body heat inside and prevents cold winds from robbing that precious heat from you. An improved collar provides a better fit while the full-length YKK® Vislon® zip lets you control ventilation levels, depending on the intensity of your ride and the terrain you're tackling. To the back of the gilet, NoRain Light fabric lets sweat out but prevents rain showers getting in. It's high-stretch properties also gives a superb fit. Talking of stretch, the unidirectional stretch on the back also provides excellent support for the 3 rear pockets. Load them up for a day on the bike and they'll not sag. The length of the back has been extended compared to previous generations so you'll now enjoy more wheel spray protection too.
The windproof construction of the Reflex Cycling Vest Gilet prevents heat loss from wind chill while light water-resistance will keep you comfortable for longer in light rain and drizzly riding conditions. During harder pedalling efforts you'll also enjoy the excellent breathability, preventing you feeling clammy as you ease the pace. And should conditions improve, the gilet is light enough to roll up and stash easily in a jersey pocket or backpack. A full-length front zipper makes it easy to pull on and off as well as offering easy control of ventilation for when you want to cool down after harder pedalling efforts. A stretch trim across the bottom of the vest also keeps it in place. Last, but by no means least, highly reflective prints across the front and back make it easy to spot you on the road as darkness falls.
