The ¾-length of thermal knickers is a classic solution, updated here with some modern technical touches.

In cool conditions, full-length tights are often overkill but summer shorts and warmers leave your upper legs and your core exposed to chill. The new thermoregulating textile, POLAR, is over 50% pre-consumer recycled material. It is also softer and more elastic than the textile on the previous GT Knickers, and it is breathable enough to prevent a clammy chill if the temperature – or the intensity level – rises, and the soft, lightly brushed inner face traps warmth in your microclimate.

Raw-cut cuffs and the stabilizing rollBar construction are both adapted from the Racing Series, adding performance details to endurance comfort and the insert’s inclusion of a Sundeck panel reduces moisture retention, ensuring dry, warm comfort. Assos's streamlined regularFit and body-contoured shaping reduce seams, eliminating friction for total comfort and easy layering.

Features:

• POLAR: A 250 g/m² warp knit that provides soft, midweight insulation that promotes breathability to maintain a warm, dry microclimate. The material composition comprises over 50% pre-consumer recycled material.
• rollBar: A patented bracing design adapted from the Racing Series. Stabilizes the insert and locks it in place as your weight transfers while sprinting, climbing, and cornering.
• PILtec Plug-In: A lightweight, ultrabreathable textile band across the leg opening. The microdot silicone treatment is invisible from the outside but stabilizes fit and maintains grip in wet or dry conditions.
• zeroPressure Waist: A soft, highly elastic waist construction that improves comfort and hold at the waist, minus any pressure or pinching.
