Performance cycling apparel brand ASSOS of Switzerland has launched the latest evolution of its endurance range, the MILLE/UMA GT S11. Designed for daily riding, the new jersey and bib shorts focus on comfort, breathability and fit, while modernising the aesthetics across the collection.
As the core of the ASSOS endurance range, the S11 generation aims to build on the brand’s legacy with material updates, technology adapted from its Racing Series, and a contemporary silhouette featuring an updated logo.
The MILLE/UMA GT Jersey S11 EVO is engineered to keep riders cool during daily riding. The main body uses the AirCell textile, an ultralight circular knit with an open hexagon structure designed for airflow and elasticity.
The sleeves have been updated with Eclipse, a warp-knit material with a soft feel and UPF 50+ protection. Borrowed from the Racing Series, the raw-cut sleeve construction creates a low-profile finish to improve aerodynamics while eliminating pressure points.
The jersey includes Triple Ramp Pockets which use flexible panels to stabilise cargo. It is available in a variety of colourways, such as Edge Green, Blossom Pink, Golden Yellow, Ground Brown and Deep Petrol in the Mille range. The UMA range includes Almond Milk, Wisteria Violet and Golden Yellow.
Luca Zanasca, Senior Manager of Development at ASSOS of Switzerland, said “The MILLE/UMA GT is the backbone of our collection, so every update has to meaningfully improve the ride experience.
“For S11, we focused on refining the essentials: increased breathability, and subtle construction improvements that deliver noticeable gains in comfort, stability, and fit – ride after ride.”
The MILLE/UMA GT Bib Shorts S11 feature a lighter construction and a longer leg length. The new QUARTZ textile provides breathable compression with ‘permanent odour control’, with 80% of the fabric content made from pre-consumer recycled polyamide.
Stability is supported through rollBar bib strap technology, which locks the insert in place during movement. At the leg openings, the PILtec Plug-In grip is designed to provide a secure hold in both wet and dry conditions.
At the centre of the shorts is the GT S11 Insert, featuring a 12mm endurance platform with Shock-Absorb Damping Mono foam. This three-layered perforated construction includes goldenGate 2.0 technology, which allows the insert to move with the body to reduce friction.
The shorts are available in a true-black colour, as well as Moss Green and Burgundy Red. According to the company, the S11 kit is designed for riders who demand performance without distraction.
