The HASHOOGI S11 is a completely reengineered winter platform, with improved body-mapping comfort and upgrades to our proprietary softshell textiles that increase breathability while providing more freedom of movement and less restriction in an upright riding position. The main body textile is an evolved version of our proprietary AIRBLOCK membrane family, which completely blocks wind, precipitation, and road spray with increased breathability, more elastic stretch, and a more supple feel that better wraps the body in streamlined, low-volume comfort.

The winterproof EISENHERZ S11 updates the proven Ultraz line with a stormproof SPHERE Ultra softshell, first used in the Racing Series. This textile provides a more elastic, more streamlined fit while also increasing breathability compared to the previous model, and it’s layered over the EISENHERZ S11’s thermal body textile on the front, legs, and hips. This new two-layer construction is only sewn together along one edge, reducing seams and allowing a more complete range of movement. While many softshell bib tights are restrictive and stiff, the EISENHERZ S11’s unique construction lets it move with you during the pedal stroke. The body of the tights is our warmest RX thermal fabric – thermoregulating, breathable, and an water-repellent.

The new Spring Fall Skin Layer is 15% lighter than its predecessor. Despite those lost grams, it also has increased collar coverage, improved odorControl, and a more streamlined, body-mapped fit. The textile is woven tighter on the front panel to provide more insulation where warmth is critical. On the back and under the arms, a more open weave increases breathability and works to actively modulate your microclimate’s temperature, expelling excess body warmth to prevent overheating during full-gas efforts.

The most advanced of our extreme winterproof jackets to date, the EISENHERZ S11 updates the Ultraz line with the all-new AIRBLOCK-EVO.888 softshell, which is a highly elastic, breathable textile that conforms to body contours while blocking wind, cold, and rain. Beneath that supple shell is a new thermal textile, which uses a grid structure to trap pockets of warmth and increase breathability. The new sleeve construction combines insulation and softshell protection in a single layer, making it easier to layer with an insulating skin layer and Ultraz Winter Gloves.

The updated insulation pattern on the Winter Skin Layer mimics the protection of our winter jackets: a tighter weave on the front panel increases insulation on the area most exposed to windchill while a more open weave on the back panel promotes breathability and modulates heat in less exposed areas. The updated textile also provides increased antimicrobial properties with permanent odorControl.

The new thermal textile is a highly elastic warp knit that wraps your body’s contours with an aerodynamic silhouette. It’s also breathable enough for full-gas efforts, and if the temperature or riding intensity get too high, the ThermoBooster P1 compacts to the size of a rain jacket to stow in a jersey pocket. The versatile textile and second-skin fit span seasons – wear it over a skin layer or summer-weight jersey in the spring and fall, and layer it beneath stormproof protection for added thermoregulation in deep winter.

The Ultraz FUGU hearkens back to the warmest, most protective line of winter equipment in ASSOS history, so it’s fitting to bring back for our most thermoregulating socks. The wool blend creates micropockets of warm air beneath the protective layer of your booties, with increased insulation across the toe and the front of the sock. The ultra-high 31cm (16in) cuff extends that protection to eliminate gaps between the FUGU and winter tights.

Merino wool and a highly elastic, highly insulating synthetic blend provide the most insulation of any of our skin layers, with an updated neck-warmer collar construction that extends the protection. The ultrasoft textile doesn’t irritate like wool, and its high elasticity means it also doesn’t lose its shape when it stretches. Instead, it moves with your body, maintaining a low-volume, next-to-skin fit to trap warmth and expel moisture – both of which are critical for comfort in deep winter.
