Assos R Socks S11 Twin Pack

The Assos R Socks S11 Twin Pack puts two pairs of Assos's entry-level race sock in one package — the practical answer for riders who go through kit quickly, train multiple days in a row, or simply want a backup pair ready when one is in the wash. Built specifically for high-intensity riding in warm and hot conditions, the R Socks S11 prioritizes breathability and cooling airflow over insulation, making them the right choice when temperatures climb and ventilation matters more than warmth retention.

The S11 update brings a lighter textile to both the cuff and the foot section, reducing material weight while improving the flow of air through the sock. At 97% polyamide and 3% elastane, the construction leans on polyamide's strength — it's a fiber that wicks moisture efficiently, dries quickly, and holds its shape wash after wash without the pilling or distortion that affects lower-quality sock materials over time. The 3% elastane provides the stretch needed to maintain a close, slip-free fit across the full pedal stroke without constricting circulation.

The 18cm (7-inch) cuff is a deliberate choice. At race length, it covers the ankle and lower leg sufficiently for both aerodynamic profiling and the tendon support that comes from consistent compression on a long ride. Left and right foot construction means the sock is oriented to the actual shape of each foot rather than using a symmetrical tube that fits neither foot particularly well. Available in Blackseries and Whiteseries, in three sizes covering EU 35–46 (US 3.5–12).
