Full-finger protection and fatigue-battling comfort result from countless hours on the trail, testing new materials and patterns. This gave the Assos designers an idea of where hot spots tend to develop and how our hands actually favor certain positions more than others, helping to tune the gloves’ panels. The designers cut them to form a curved 3D structure, mimicking the intricate anatomical structure of the human hand as it grips the bars. The result? Targeted support where you need it, and less weight where you don’t.
Assos used a durable 3D Mesh on the palm, and then covered it with light, perforated padding at the top and outer section, plus the thumb, where our hands tend to “weight” the bar. The fingertips have also been wrapped in a tough double layer, with silicone treatment on the first two fingers for brake lever control. The flexible cuff molds to your wrist, providing a near-custom fit without any irritation.
