Assos Mille GT Winter S11 Evo Jacket

The Assos Mille GT Winter S11 Evo is a winter cycling jacket designed to tackle cold conditions with a combination of wind and rain protection, thermal insulation, and breathability. The construction blends storm-proof softshell and insulating thermal fabrics in a design built for endurance cycling and long winter rides.

The S11 EVO generation updates one of the most proven winter jackets in the Assos range with a more versatile fit, designed to better accommodate more upright riding positions and offer greater freedom in the chest and shoulders. The result is a tapered regularFit jacket, comfortable even during long rides and suitable for layering.

Winter Protection and Microclimate Management

The Mille GT Winter Jacket S11 Evo has been developed to offer complete protection without sacrificing internal moisture management. New thermal RX fabric inserts strategically placed along the side panels, under the arms, and around the neck enhance breathability, helping to maintain a dry microclimate even during long winter rides.

On the front of the body, we find AIRBLOCK-EVO.916, a breathable and storm-proof softshell designed to protect against wind, rain, and icy air. The sleeves, on the other hand, use AIRBLOCK-EVO.888, a highly elastic fabric derived from the Racing Series, which combines wind and waterproof protection with high breathability.

The back is made with an RX EVO Plus panel, a highly insulating fabric with a thermoregulating and water-repellent surface. This construction protects the back and pockets from precipitation and road spray, while also increasing breathability.

Features and Technologies

AIRBLOCK-EVO.916

AIRBLOCK-EVO.916 is the warmest fabric in the evolved AIRBLOCK family. This softshell combines storm protection, enhanced breathability, and elasticity, offering a softer fit than the previous model.

AIRBLOCK-EVO.888

The sleeves are made with AIRBLOCK-EVO.888, a technology derived from the Racing Series. The fabric offers wind and waterproof protection, high breathability, and elasticity, promoting freedom of movement while cycling.

RX EVO Plus

The back panel in RX EVO Plus combines thermal insulation and water-repellent properties. Its structure increases breathability on the back while maintaining high protection from the elements.

Thermal RX Fabric

Lighter thermal RX panels are placed on the inner arms, sides, and neck. Their function is to further increase breathability in areas where heat and moisture management are particularly important.

regularFit and Anatomical Shaping

The tapered regularFit construction and anatomical shaping are designed to reduce the number of seams and limit friction. The updated fit is less restrictive in the chest and shoulders and more versatile in upright riding positions, offering comfort during long rides and facilitating layering with other garments.

Raw Cut

Raw Cut technology uses a racing-inspired finish that reduces bulk at the garment's edges. This solution allows the jacket to easily layer over gloves, thermal mid-layers, and outer shells, avoiding unnecessary bulk.

Reflective Detailing

The stripes on the pockets and reflective logos increase rider visibility in low-light and overcast conditions. This is a particularly important feature on winter rides, when light conditions can change rapidly.

Triple Ramp Pockets

The Triple Ramp Pockets integrate flexible fabric panels stitched into the pockets. These panels create a structure that secures and stabilizes contents, also helping to protect them from precipitation and road spray.
