Assos Mille GT Wind Jacket Info

The Mille GT Wind Jacket is an easy to wear, easy to stow outer layer that comes in handy year ‘round. It works in a warm summer rain. It works when descending a mountain. It works to warm you up at the start of a ride, or fend off chill as you’re on your cool down.

GT is short for Gran Tourismo. It’s Assos-speak for everyday riding and the everyday rider. It works for every rider every day, with a fit that is close without being tight, a marked benefit for a garment designed to go over everything else. And, thanks to it being Assos, it is also designed to easily fit in one of your jersey pockets. They know that a good wind jacket needs to fit in a pocket without overstuffing.

The front, back, sleeves, and exterior collar are built out of FoilUltra, a fabric Assos has been using in jackets for some time. It’s light, thin, windproof, and packs small. The side panels and underarms are Assos’ Glossy stretch textile, which is light, thin, and breathable. The collar is lined with two-way stretch fabric for both comfort and to retain shape.

Assos finishes off the Mille GT Wind Jacket with elastic at the hems and reflective tabs on the back and shoulders.

Weather conditions change. You’ll dress lighter, more comfortably with the Mille GT Wind Jacket because you’ll want to both put it on and take it off as your body’s microclimate changes with the weather.
