Technical Details and Features

The QUARTZ textile is a lightweight, robust warp-knit with permanent odorControl and a deep black tone that doesn't "grey out" when stretched. 80% of the material comes from pre-consumer recycled polyamide, combining performance demands with resource efficiency. The GT S11 Insert combines a 12mm Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono, the three-layer, perforated 3D Waffle foam and goldenGate 2.0 for targeted freedom of movement and reduced friction; an ultralight front panel further enhances cooling. PILtec Plug-In grippers with fine silicone microdots provide slip-free leg closure, whilst hipClick and zeroPressure Waist stabilise the waistband and prevent pressure peaks. The body-hugging regularFit shape reduces seams and chafing points, with composition at 84% PL/16% EA (main fabric) and 85% PL/15% EA (chamois).

Applications and Benefits

These bib-free cycling shorts show their strengths when temperatures rise, you're tackling a turbo session or you simply prefer maximum freedom of movement. On everyday rides, hilly after-work tours or longer pass rides in Switzerland, they score with stable fit, breathable padding and reliable leg grippers. The extended leg length provides a modern look and additional hold, whilst the deep black fabric stays opaque even under intense effort. Specialist media confirm that the S11 update focuses on everyday comfort, lighter fabrics and improved ventilation – exactly what frequent and year-round riders are looking for.

As a retailer note for the Swiss market: The fit is designed as regularFit and covers a broad size range, keeping even longer sessions comfortable. Thanks to hipClick, the GT S11 Insert sits securely, which particularly impresses during frequent mounting and dismounting in city traffic or during interval blocks on Zwift. The shorts are easy to care for thanks to the quick-drying QUARTZ textile, which is ready to use again quickly after washing and prevents odour build-up. Available in multiple sizes from XS to 3XL, so you can find your optimal balance of support, freedom of movement and temperature management.
