Assos Equipe RS Rain jacket

T GTN Pro Team is an Assos model that has been delicately designed to make you feel comfortable. Its viscoelastic foam adjusts to the movements of your body improving mobility and eliminating friction.

The design at the culottes waist fits your waist. These summer cycling pants have a universal cut to promote their performance. It is specially designed for female cyclists because it incorporates a viscoelastic foam padding.

The stretch of the cycling garment is in 4 directions that favors elasticity. The tissue wraps the thighs offering adequate compression, eliminating friction. The version reflects sunlight and decreases heat absorption so that it keeps the muscles fresher. The Equipe RS Rain Jacket insulates, protects, and keeps the chill away with its waterproof construction and race-focused cut. At just 170g, it´s half the weight of our legendary sturmPrinz, which means this is the jacket to grab when you need something slightly more everyday, and slightly less heavy-duty.

The jacket is crafted with the latest development from the ASSOS Textile Laboratory, our Schloss Tex, which is lightweight, flexible, and waterproof. This riding jacket borrows numerous cues from the race-proven sturmPrinz, such as the taped wrists and neck to minimize friction, the silicon elastic waistband, and the appreciated slot pockets that allow access to your regular jersey pockets beneath. We´ve also applied a double zip to give the rider the liberty to open from the bottom and increase breathability.

Along with its 3-layer waterproof textile, this rain jacket applies minimal seams and panels. Providing necessary water-repellent and windproof properties, the Equipe is an all-year riding jacket that has been stringently engineered to provide pro-level performance.

Making a jacket waterproof is easy, but making one that is breathable as well – that is the ultimate challenge for a cycling jacket. The Equipe RS is one of the best in the category.

Full-length zip:

Ultra lightweight, ultra packable:
- As cyclists we understand the needs and restrictions that you face on every ride. With limited pocket space and a need to accommodate the essentials, we have diligently worked to create products with the lowest possible weight and great packability. As no one wants to feel like a packhorse on rides in changeable conditions, we’ve strived to strike the balance between weight, volume and performance. Our approach is always to craft pieces that will exceed expectations as your back-pocket insurance policy. This approach involves minimal volume and minimal seams.
