Tactile feedback, lightweight protection, and overall comfort were the primary focal points of the Equipe RS Aero FF gloves, each of which has been addressed through careful textile development and patterning. The streamlined “no wrinkle” silhouette comes courtesy of seven individual panels that have been cut to form a curved 3D shape, mimicking the intricate anatomical structure of the human hand as it grips the bars.

At the back of the hands Assos applied their Breezer Tex, an ultralight woven fabric with mesh-like structure, which promotes breathability and delivers an ultrasoft feel. Strategically positioned pads on the palm, wrapped in perforated synthetic leather, deliver light support and protection, without blocking necessary feedback from the bar. The resulting gloves create a barely-there layer, free of bulky fasteners and fabrics, for a smooth low-volume fit.
