Assos EQUIPE RS Summer Short Sleeve Jersey (Prof Ed)

In order to extract the very best performance from yourself, you’ll want the best kit. And when it comes to slippery cycling jerseys, the EQUIPE RS Summer Jersey Prof Edition can certainly rank up amongst the best. The jersey has had every detail scrutinised and examined to optimise both fit and performance, benefiting you when it comes riding hard and fast in training and racing. The aeroFit is extremely close-fitting, and while it may feel restrictive off the bike, it really comes into its own when the pressure is on and you're pushing the power through the pedals.

Functional Fabrics

After the fit, we come to functional fabrics. First comes the technical miniCheck Tex fabric. This 3D knit fabric is extremely elastic to give you the close aero fit needed to go fast without wasting your hard-earned watts. But not just that, it's highly breathable too, ensuring you don't get overwhelmed with sweat when your race and training efforts intensify.

Meanwhile, the rear of the jersey sees Assos' featherweight Stabilizer textile deployed. This holds the jersey smoothly in place thanks to its limited vertical stretch, keeping airflow smooth and uninterrupted. Lastly, taking into account a low and aggressive riding position, the raw bonded sleeves, yoke and pockets ensure smooth transitions while remaining incredibly flexible.

Practicality Built-in

While the Equipe RS is, of course, speed-focused, Assos haven't overlooked more practical requirements. An ultralight bonded cam-lock zipper to the front gives you control of ventilation, while the triple ramp pocket design allows very easy access to all your essentials. A lightweight taped waist keeps bulk low, the fit smooth and it's more durable than previous versions.

Proven time again in the frenetic world of the pro peloton, the Assos EQUIPE RS Summer Jersey Prof Edition has certainly made its mark on the World Tour. And now you can enjoy the same benefits, minus team logos but with an added subtle but stylish fade print.
