An exceptionally light base layer that manages moisture and controls odor beneath second-skin cold-weather layers or as a standalone top during indoor training. Thermal weatherproof equipment is no longer the bulky PVC rain capes and adapted ski jackets of decades past so—at the request of our WorldTour riders—we tailored a long-sleeve base layer to provide summer-worthy wicking and odor control that fits unobtrusively beneath race-tuned equipment like our Spring Fall Jersey or Jacket. In cool or cold weather transporting internal moisture is as important as keeping the external elements out especially during intense training or racing when a series of intervals hill repeats or attacks can lead to lingering moisture a clammy chill and frigid misery. Alternatively full-arm wicking is a must for indoor training when moving through the air isn’t constantly keeping your arms dry. WHEN/HOW TO USE IT Layer it under insulating weatherproof layers for fall winter and early spring; for indoor training layer it under your bib straps and omit the jersey altogether. 89%PP 7%PA 4%EA
Part of the ASSOS Layering System, the ASSOSOIRES Summer Long Sleeve Skin Layer weighs in some 25% less than the Skinfoil base layer that preceded it. And with the Circular Seamless construction its brilliantly comfortable against the skin too, with no side seams to cause irritation. Then we come to moisture management, and here it's brilliant too. The blend of carbon and polypropylene provide a major step up in both breathability and sweat-wicking performance compared to previous generation base layers. And with anti-bacterial properties also present, it's a base layer that leaves you drier and fresher, even during the hottest and sweatiest of bike rides. To get the best out of your performance in the heat, it's the ideal start.

Cycling in cool autumnal and spring conditions can be difficult to dress for. You can soon be too hot and sweaty after harder efforts which then makes you cold when you back off the pace. And yet take it steady and you can soon feel a chill. The ASSOSOIRES Spring Fall Long Sleeve Base Layer looks to address this dilemma. For a start, the carbon and polypropylene yarns offer significantly improved insulation and moisture management in comparison to previous models of Assos base layers. The technical blend of medium-weight fabrics balances both excellent insulation levels with an impressive ability to rapidly wick away sweat from the skin. The result is a smooth, insulating, and antibacterial short-sleeve first layer that keeps your core dry and protected under your outer layers. Elastane fibres are also used to give the base layer its close to the body stretch fit and allow for easy mobility too. And with a Circular Knit construction, there are no seams to cause undue irritation. Thanks to this construction it's some 11% lighter than it's Skinfoil predecessors too, making it less noticeable than ever before. It's the perfect first layer of your transitional season's cycling wardrobe.
