Assos Equipe R Habu Winter S9 jacket

A low-volume, second-skin aerodynamic jacket, engineered with a 3-layer membrane and high stretch thermal textiles that provide wind-blocking, waterproof insulation.

The iconic Habu Jacket is back, completely redesigned and engineered with AIRBLOCK.888, a new midweight 3-layer membrane that blocks wind and water while maintaining stretch and breathability. Thermal, high-stretch textiles have then been added at strategic locations on the back, lower front panel and neck for thermal insulation and increased breathability.

Features

• The new 2L Silver Storm membrane replaces the original Silver Haze across the jacket’s leading edge and upper back. It’s every bit as reflective, windproof, and water-repellent as its predecessor, but with added stretch, second-skin fit, and better packability. Lighter Yubari panels add breathability without compromising water-repellency in less exposed areas, and the high-stretch Push Pull textile increases comfort and breathability while dialing aerodynamic fit.
• RacingFit is a second-skin, aerodynamic silhouette designed with WorldTour feedback and proven with WorldTour results. Compressive textiles, micro-adjusted shaping, and low-bulk, raw-cut hems and cuffs identify racingFit as the definitive speed series.
• StruzzoKragen: A collar of lighter, soft insulation with a comfort fit. Actively modulates the personal microclimate without requiring unzipping and exposing the throat to cold air. Layers over neck warmers on colder days.
• TwinDeck: A double construction that layers soft insulation below a softshell membrane, adding protection in crucial areas.
• Triple Ramp Pockets: Flexible fabric panels sewn into the pockets create “lids,” securing and stabilizing the contents while protecting against precipitation or road spray.
• Assosoires Pocket: Located on the front panel. Secure storage for shell gloves or heavier accessories during high-intensity intervals.
• Reflective strip: Additional elements to increase visibility in the low-light, overcast conditions when wind and rain protection are most valuable.
• Composition: 63%PA 23%PL 14%EA.
