## Assos ULTRAZ WINTER FACE MASK

The Assos ULTRAZ WINTER FACE MASK is the particularly warm **balaclava** for cyclists who are out in deep winter. The two-layer **twinDeck** construction keeps warmth at the head while wicking moisture outward – a key detail for comfort on long rides. An additional insert made of **Winter Foam Light** protects chin, neck and sternum in the cold and increases insulation at a particularly exposed area. Pre-shaped panels ensure a clean fit under the helmet without bulking up or pressing. The material composition is 40% polyamide, 36% polypropylene, 15% elastane and 9% polyester and the color is the subtle blackSeries. Developed with typical Assos logic for **winter performance**, the mask offers reliable protection in icy conditions. This information comes directly from Assos and has been verified across multiple official product pages.

## Technical Details and Functions

The heart of the ULTRAZ WINTER FACE MASK is the **twinDeck** construction, which forms a warm air layer between the layers while efficiently transporting moisture away from the interior. The inner **Rhombus** knit offers noticeably soft insulation, while the outer layer **Push Pull Medium** keeps the climate stable by keeping moisture away from the skin. In the front area, **Winter Foam Light** significantly increases insulation, which keeps the temperature at the neck area constant in headwinds and descents. The pre-shaped, flat-fitting construction prevents wrinkles and makes layering under the helmet easier. This maintains freedom of movement when looking over the shoulder and breathing. Assos uses these materials and cuts specifically to combine performance and comfort at **sub-zero temperatures**. All technologies are described in detail on the official Assos pages.

## Applications and Benefits

This face mask is ideal for winter rides in Switzerland, when bise winds and elevation gain noticeably affect the temperature. On the commute to work, it reliably protects against headwinds without compromising **breathability**, and on long training sessions the head area stays dry and warm. Worn under the helmet, the mask sits smoothly thanks to its pre-shaped panels and leaves enough room for additional **layers** like a thin cap. Those who ride a lot in the Jura, in the Zurich Oberland or in alpine regions benefit from the reinforced front, which works particularly well on descents. The neutral blackSeries can be easily combined with winter jackets and thermal jerseys. This creates a functional system that manages moisture and stores heat – exactly where it counts in winter.

Further notes on fit and combination possibilities: The ULTRAZ WINTER FACE MASK was specifically developed for wearing under the helmet and remains pleasantly unobtrusive thanks to its low volume. If needed, it can be supplemented with a light **rain cap** or hood without causing pressure points. For the best effect, we recommend combining it with warm base layers and windproof outer layers so that the overall system can optimally regulate temperature. Assos also provides a two-year warranty on the product, which underlines the durability of the material and workmanship. All these points are documented on the official product pages and have been cross-checked by us.
