## Assos Winter Socks EVO

The Assos Winter Socks EVO are winter socks for cold days with **midweight insulation** that provide targeted warmth without adding bulk in the shoe. An extended **17 cm cuff** closes the gap between sock and tights or leg warmers, improving cold protection on the lower leg. In the exposed forefoot area, Assos uses a **terry toe section** for enhanced **thermoregulation** and lasting soft comfort over many seasons. The material blend with **odour-resistant** polyamide component wicks moisture away and keeps the climate in the shoe pleasantly dry. A low-seam **160-needle construction** with light compression ensures a stable fit that prevents slipping. The composition is 65% polyester, 28% polyamide, 4% wool and 3% elastane; available in sizes 0 to III. These features make the EVO a versatile choice for cycling in Swiss winter conditions.

## Technical Details and Functions

The Winter Socks EVO combine synthetic fibres with a wool content to store heat and quickly wick moisture away – keeping the microclimate in the shoe **dry and stable**. The strategically densified **terry toe zone** increases heat retention exactly where the riding wind hits most, without noticeably increasing volume in the shoe. Thanks to **160-needle knit**, a uniform, friction-free surface is created that fits snugly to the foot and minimises unnecessary seams. The **17 cm** extended cuff expands coverage at the ankle, which particularly prevents gaps when combined with long **tights** or **leg warmers**. The fit feels lightly compressive and supports hold over long distances without pinching at the cuff. Through the **odour-resistant** yarn blend, the socks remain pleasant even during intensive sessions. This technical balance appeals to riders who seek reliable warmth without clogging shoe volume.

## Applications and Benefits

Whether commuting around **Zurich**, base training on the road bike or winter gravel rounds in the Mittelland: the EVO plays to its strengths when it's cold and you want dry, warm feet. The **midweight insulation** fits perfectly with typical Swiss winter days, where the temperature range fluctuates between cool and cold without dropping into extreme sub-zero temperatures. The higher cuff reduces cold bridges at the transition to **tights** or **leg warmers**, which is noticeable on longer descents. At the same time, the **moisture management** ensures that sweat is quickly transported away and no clammy feeling develops. The lightly compressive fit remains dimensionally stable even after many kilometres, preventing blister formation. In summary, you get an unobtrusive, functional heat provider that sensibly complements your winter equipment.

## Fit and Layering Tips

For best performance, the socks should fit snugly so that the **compression** and heat balance function optimally. Deliberately combine the **17 cm cuff height** with long **tights** or **leg warmers** so that no gap remains for draughts. Depending on your personal cold sensitivity, you can complement the EVO with suitable overshoes to minimise wind chill on the shoe. The material blend works reliably even under intensive stress, which is why the socks are suitable for both training and daily commuting. If you're between two sizes, orient yourself to the desired **compression effect**: athletic-tight for performance, slightly more relaxed for everyday rides. Through the robust knitting technique and **odour-resistant** yarns, the socks remain ready for use over many winters. This way, the EVO fits seamlessly into your **ASSOS** layering system for cold months.
