ASSOS MILLE GTS WASSERSCHNAUZE Rain Jacket S11
NEW Spring/Summer 2024
The ASSOS MILLE GTS WASSERSCHNAUZE Rain Jacket S11 is a midweight rain jacket engineered for long-distance riding, equipped with a highly elastic 2L membrane that layers over jerseys and jackets alike for year-round protection in wet conditions.
The main textile of the WASSERSCHNAUZE, Lightning, is a permanently waterproof barrier with more insulation than the Schloss Tex 3L textile on our RS Rain Jacket Targa. Native elasticity enables four-season layering over equipment ranging from summer-weight jerseys to heavier winter jackets. Bonded and taped hems paired with a flap-shielded, glove-friendly zipper eliminate any gaps in waterproofing, and NACA Tec underarm construction shields against road spray and precipitation while increasing breathability. Reflective tape on the back keeps you visible in overcast, low-light conditions, and the internal chest pocket is large enough to stash gloves for when the weather requires additional hand protection.
This rain jacket is easily carried in a rear pocket during long distance endurance rides, ready for protection in the variable conditions of spring and fall. Layer over a jacket and thermal base layers for additional protection in cooler/colder conditions.
TECHNOLOGY
FEATURED FABRICS
Lightning is a new, breathable 130g/m² 2L textile that maximizes water protection, stabilizes the microclimate with light thermoregulation, and provides an elastic, layerable fit. Permanent water repellency eliminates the need for a DWR treatment. A soft circular knit lining adds light insulation with a gentle touch on skin or layers, and the 2L construction eliminates the potential of added weight through water absorption by a face fabric. Type.OF11 adds DWR-treated breathability under the arms.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT
The textile’s high elasticity allows its streamlined regularFit to layer over any jersey or jacket. Taped and bonded seams complete the water-repelling barrier.
ENGINEERING
ASSOSOIRES pocket: A large, internal pocket that stows and protects gloves and warmers to prepare the rider for any conditions.
NACA Tec: Innovative underarm construction that maximizes ventilation and breathability without compromising water repellency.
