Assos UMA GT Half Shorts S11 long - Black Series

Ultra-minimalist cycling shorts for daily endurance comfort or indoor training, refined with a new fabric, a more breathable insert, and updated grip at the leg openings – with reduced weight and extended leg length for a more modern silhouette. Available in two leg lengths: regular and long (+3 cm).

BEHIND THE PRODUCT SCENES
Relaxed Café rides. Indoor training or days that are simply too hot for bibs: The GT Half Shorts S11 were designed for situations where bibs are unnecessarily restrictive. The S11 generation updates the popular design with a lighter, more robust body fabric in a deeper, true black tone. A wide elastic band at the waist provides support and adaptable stretch, while hip Click construction keeps the shorts securely in place. Despite the changes, breathability remains high and the new insert enhances cooling airflow through an ultralight panel in the front area.

FEATURED FABRICS
The new QUARTZ fabric is a lightweight, breathable warp-knit with permanent odorControl. The true-black shade does not turn white or transparent when stretched in normal use: additionally, 80% of the material comes from pre-consumer recycled polyamide. A band of Sens AIR at the lower abdomen reduces pressure in aggressive riding positions.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT
Our slim regular fit and body-hugging cut reduce seams and eliminate friction for maximum comfort and easy layering.

ENGINEERING
PiLtec Plug-In:
Lightweight, ultra-breathable textile band at the leg opening. The silicone microdot treatment is invisible from the outside, but stabilises the fit and maintains grip
in dry or wet conditions;
hipClick: Waist construction that combines elastic and mesh layers with a high, non-restrictive rise to stabilise the body panels and secure the insert;
zeroPressure Waist: soft, highly elastic waist construction that improves comfort and support
without pressure or pinching.

GT S11 Insert
Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono12: Compressive foam layers on a 12 mm endurance platform. Thermoformed structure reduces edges and irritation;

3b Waffle: patented. three-layer perforated foam enhances breathability and eliminates excess weight;

goldenGate 2.0: free-floating construction that moves with the body rather than against it. New cutouts on the wings reduce friction throughout the pedal cycle.
