**New ASSOS Fall/Winter Collection item available September/October 2025
The ASSOS ThermoBooster Foil is a technical version of the newspaper version of wind protection. ...a long way since the days of stuffing yesterday’s issue of L’Équipe newspaper under a jersey for extra protection during long descents.
Cyclists put newspapers under their jerseys on mountain descents to create a temporary, rudimentary wind barrier, trapping a pocket of warm air to protect their chest and core from the bone-chilling winds and prevent a sudden drop in body temperature after the exertion of climbing. This effective, classic technique is still used today.
This ASSOS windproof and waterproof ultrasoft barrier shields on descents but will pack away into a jersey pocket when the road arrives back at sea level. Quick and easy-on, easy-off, super compact to carry on a ride.
SIZES: OS fits all
