R Winter Leg Warmers P1

Assos R Winter Leg Warmers P1

When Swiss roads turn cool, wet and windy, the Assos R Winter Leg Warmers P1 deliver just the right dose of warmth and protection for performance-oriented rides. The leg warmers feature RX Extreme fabric that impresses with high breathability and noticeable thermal regulation while being treated with a water-repellent finish. Thanks to AEPD 11 racingFit, they fit like a second skin, stay stable and can be stowed away compactly in your jersey pocket when needed. Ankle zippers make putting them on and taking them off easy – even quickly from the saddle when the sun does show up.

• RX Extreme: brushed, thermal-regulating jersey material with high breathability and water-repellent treatment.
• Acqua Shield Tec: environmentally friendly impregnation that lets water bead off and supports a dry microclimate.
• AEPD 11 racingFit: aerodynamic second-skin fit with 360° stability and light compression.
• PILtec Plug-In: micro-dot silicone on a lightweight, ultra-breathable band for secure hold – even in wet conditions.
• Raw Cut: flat, low-volume hems for friction-free combination with bib shorts, booties and shell pants.
• Ankle zippers for easy removal while riding.
• Breathable, thermal-regulating and packable for autumn, winter and spring.
• Available in three variants so fit and length match your setup perfectly.

Technical Details and Features

The heart is RX Extreme, a robust, knitted thermal fabric with a brushed interior that stores warmth and quickly transports moisture outward. The Acqua Shield Tec treatment ensures that spray and drizzle bead off, while underneath a pleasant, dry microclimate develops. The leg warmers are designed for AEPD 11 racingFit, meaning: minimal excess material, noticeable stability and a clean, aero-oriented transition to the shoe. A PILtec Plug-In band with micro-dot silicone keeps the leg warmers reliably in position without pinching. Additionally, Raw Cut edges prevent friction when layering with bib shorts, overshoes or weatherproof pants, and the ankle zippers simplify changing on the fly. The material composition is 76% polyamide and 24% elastane – a mix for durability, stretch and longevity.

Applications and Benefits

These leg warmers are ideal for early spring, late autumn and mild winter days in Switzerland, when it's too cool for shorts but too mild for winter tights. Thanks to their low volume, they can be worn easily under wind and rain shells and upgrade your setup with additional insulation. When temperature rises, they disappear compactly folded in your jersey pocket – perfect for changeable conditions between the Limmat, Lake Greifensee and the Alpine foothills. The combination of water repellency, breathability and close fit offers practical protection during training, commuting and longer base rides. This way you benefit from versatile weather protection without sacrificing the familiar feel of your favourite bibs.

Additional notes on fit: The second-skin construction sits stable over or under bib shorts so the edges finish cleanly and nothing shifts. The grip remains even in wet conditions, which makes a noticeable difference on long, damp winter rides. For more demanding conditions, the leg warmers can be worn under weatherproof shell pants to specifically enhance protection. And because the edges are Raw Cut, layering creates no thick seam transitions that could interfere at the knee or back of the leg.
