Spring Fall Booties

Assos Spring Fall Booties

The Assos Spring Fall Booties are sleek overshoes for the transitional season, developed for racing and training rides in spring and autumn. They offer lightweight insulation as well as wind and water-repellent properties, without causing the heat buildup typical of rain or winter overshoes. The zip-free design reduces volume and friction while ensuring a clean, aerodynamic silhouette on the shoe. The model was tested by Fabian Cancellara at the highest level in time trials at the 2016 Olympics, where he won gold, underlining the aerodynamic focus.

• Lightweight insulation and breathability for spring and autumn.
• Wind and water-repellent for changeable Swiss weather.
• Zip-free construction for less volume and higher aerodynamics.
• Sens 2L double fabric as a second skin, with Tech Sheen at ankle/shin for stretch and durability.
• Open-edge cleat openings for seamless clipping in and out.
• Sealed edges with minimal seams for greater durability and protection from spray.

Technical Details and Features

The heart of the booties is the Sens 2L double fabric, which fits like a second skin and supports foot climate regulation during intense sessions thanks to high breathability. At the ankle and shin, Tech Sheen is used - a highly stretchable, resistant warp-knit material that keeps the fit stable while preserving freedom of movement. The zip-free construction avoids pressure points and reduces potential chafing spots on shoes, socks and skin. Raw-cut cleat openings prevent bulky seams, ensuring clean pedal engagement even when things need to happen quickly on the road bike. Minimised, partially taped seams increase durability and improve protection against spray on wet Swiss roads.

Applications and Benefits

The Spring Fall Booties are made for the transitional season, when you're often confronted with wind, cool temperatures and occasional showers on your commute through Zurich or training rounds in the Mittelland. Thanks to their low material thickness, they fit easily under leg warmers or tight trouser cuffs without pinching or creating wrinkles. The combination of wind protection, water repellency and high air permeability keeps feet pleasantly dry and prevents overheating during intense intervals. At the same time, shoes stay protected from road dirt and spray, making maintenance easier and keeping them looking fresh longer. Note that the booties are not completely waterproof, but deliver the optimal mix of protection and breathability for spring and autumn.

Sizes, Fit and Variants

The booties are designed unisex and available in Assos sizes 0 to III, so you can pull them on precisely over common road cycling shoes. The blackSeries colour looks understated and combines easily with your spring and autumn wardrobe. The ergonomic, close-fitting Race-Fit concept supports the aerodynamic line and prevents material flapping at higher speeds. The material composition is 78% Polyamide (PA) and 22% Elastane (EA), ensuring elasticity, durability and shape retention. Assos backs the product with 2 years warranty as well as a crash policy, which additionally supports sustainable use in sporting everyday life.
