Assos - the cycling shorts company since 1976

The Assos story began in 1976, when it was founded in Ticino in Switzerland. At that time, the first ever Lycra cycling shorts were introduced to the market, when it was realised that the material Lycra was even more aerodynamic than human skin. This discovery revolutionised the world of cycling. In 1980, it released the Assos cycling jersey and in 1995, pioneered the trademark Assos layering system. Designed for 7 riding seasons, from spring to winter, the layering system enables cyclists to ride in any conditions. After that, the company continued to create new innovations at a steady pace, with a focus on clothing that minimises air resistance, decreases fatigue and improves power and efficiency.

Today, Assos is widely known around the world thanks to its numerous technical solutions and innovations. Its clothing has been worn in prominent competitions, world championships and at the Olympic games, and has supported athletes as they strive to attain their goals at every level. In 2011 Assos introduced specialised eyewear engineered for high-performance cycling in an exclusive joint venture between Carl Zeiss Vision Sunlens and the Assos Centro Studio. In 2014, Assos launched its first off-road rally collection specifically designed for mountain biking.
