Assos Gloves Endurance S11

The ASSOS Endurance Gloves S11 are lightweight endurance-focused cycling gloves designed for warm-weather riding, long-distance comfort, and improved bar feel.

They replace the previous GT Gloves C2 with a more breathable and ergonomic design optimized for daily road cycling and endurance use.

Key Features

Ultrabreathable Mesh Palm

The biggest update is the switch from a traditional microfiber palm to:

• Durable mesh construction
• Faster drying performance
• Improved airflow
• Better sweat management

This helps reduce:

This makes them especially suitable for endurance road cycling.

• Improve durability
