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.
The MILLE GT Wind Jacket C2 is a cycling jacket you'll find useful year-round. Layer it over a summer jersey for protection on descents, as conditions turn cool and damp in spring or slip on over thermal layers in colder autumn and winter conditions. Improvements to the fit and fabrics provide even greater comfort and performance. The supple windproof fabrics allow better adaption to the body, virtually eliminating flapping and rustling in the wind without any compromise to protection levels. Once the weather improves or the descent ends, simply roll it up and it fits easily into a cycling jersey pocket. Featured Fabrics The body of the GT Wind makes use of Assos' Breaker fabric. This wind-blocking textile prevents cold winds from getting inside while a water-repellent finish shrugs off a light rain shower.

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.
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.
Even in the height of summer, any road cyclist will tell you that leaving home without something windproof is a mistake. Thankfully, Assos know this and have created the female-specific UMA GT Wind Jacket to keep you defended without letting you overheat via a surprisingly low volume. On the front, the Foil Ultra fabric is light and racey enough to compete with the best of them, while the Glossy textile on the side panels adds plenty of stretch, offering complete freedom of movement despite sitting close to the body. It’s also wonderfully breathable, as you’d expect, to keep you cool and wick sweat away from the bod quickly and effectively. Of course, you don’t always want to be wearing the jacket on calmer warm days, and so it’s good news that the immense packability of the UMA GT Wind Jacket allows you to slip it into a pocket or bag until you need it. There really is no reason not to leave home with it just in case, perfect for the whole year round.
