Assos Trail Spring/Fall Women’s Sweatshirt – Black

The TRAIL spring/autumn hoodie meets all the requirements: it makes use of breathable materials that provide light thermal insulation, has a fit designed for dirt trails, and has protective elements throughout. Assos wanted something that would pair well with the short-sleeved and long-sleeved TRAIL jerseys for those cool weather conditions that occur in spring and fall, where temperatures often fluctuate day to day. Knowing that the upper front half of our body, shoulders and head feel the impact of the elements, Assos focused on these areas by using an ultra-soft, flexible and entirely new material called RX TECH Melange. This beautiful blended fabric is combed on the inside to provide light thermal insulation, which is especially appreciated during those long, fast-paced descents starting from high points. The high collar of the diver-style hood functions as a built-in neck protector when fully zipped up. However, it should be noted that the hood is not compatible with helmet use. It is thus designed to keep the head warm before and after cycling, while during cycling itself the neck protection is sufficient without the risk of getting too hot. The back panel of the jacket is made from the same fabric as a Jersey circular Triangle proven and used in our TRAIL jerseys, i.e., a flexible material that is exceptionally breathable and can wick moisture away from the layers underneath. The sleeves, on the other hand, are made with our durable and reliable RX fabric, lightly combed on the inside for an extra touch of thermal insulation, while the elbows are lined with our abrasion-resistant dyneRope fabric. Taking advantage of the trailFit cut, the jacket is sleek and suited for the position taken on the bike from dirt trails, but also usable in casual settings without looking out of place. The two-slider zipper allows you to open the jacket like a cape for climbing exertion or take advantage of classic ventilation by opening it from the top. Inside, a hidden pocket with an integrated “flap” has also been added for storing small items, such as keys and other valuables.
