Mille GT Spring/Fall Knicker - Men's

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It is a special coating applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant. This means that when you're cycling in light rain or wet conditions, water will bead up and roll off the material instead of soaking in. This treatment helps keep you dry and comfortable during your rides, enhancing your overall experience.

A chamois is a padded insert in cycling shorts and bibs that provides essential cushioning and comfort while riding. It reduces friction and chafing between your body and the saddle, making long rides much more enjoyable. Investing in shorts with a quality chamois can significantly improve your comfort on the bike.

RX EVO is a high-performance fabric used by Assos that offers excellent insulation and moisture management. It keeps your body warm while effectively wicking away sweat, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable during cooler weather rides. This combination of properties makes RX EVO ideal for cyclists who ride in varying temperatures.

The MILLE GT C2 Seat Pad is a specially designed pad by Assos for their cycling shorts and bibs. It is engineered to provide superior comfort during long rides, with a focus on fit and cushioning where you need it most. The "C2" designation indicates advanced design features that enhance support, making it a great choice for cyclists looking for comfort on extended journeys.

The Zeropressure Waist Fit is a design feature in the waistband of bib shorts that eliminates pressure points. This means the waistband is constructed to avoid digging into your skin, providing a more comfortable fit during long rides. This feature is particularly beneficial for cyclists who spend extended periods in a riding position, allowing for a more enjoyable experience without discomfort.

While DWR treatment provides water resistance, it is designed for light rain and wet conditions rather than heavy downpours. For intense rain, it's best to layer your cycling gear with a waterproof outer shell. However, DWR-treated gear will still help keep you drier than non-treated fabrics, making it a valuable addition to your cycling wardrobe.
