The Liberty first entered the pro peloton in 2017 in a number of prototype iterations, each based on feedback from professional riders to satisfy what they saw as a gap in their clothing arsenal. After extensive testing, the EQUIPE RS Thermo Rain Jersey, also known as the Liberty, saw the world - a lightweight and waterproof jersey.
The Liberty is classified as a “rain thermo racing device.” It is stringently engineered to be as watertight as necessary, as aerodynamic as possible, and as low volume as needed when performing at your maximum. The Liberty relies on Assos non-porous Stratagon Light fabric, which remains lightweight and able to perform even when wet.
Assos cycling-specific body mapping has informed the precise placement of the textiles to ensure the jersey remains aerodynamic while also being immune to wind, rain, and low temperatures. Efforts to elevate the Liberty’s performance are evident in the considered rear ventilation slots, known as squamoVenTech; the reduction of the number of stitches to minimize the risk of water entering; the double, dual-direction zipper; the large reflective panel on the rear for visibility; three optimally positioned rear pockets lined with a breathable mesh; and taped seams.
The left chest panel over the rider’s heart benefits from a layer of our Schloss Tex, thereby ensuring additional warmth and improved blood circulation by targeting the source directly.
