Assos Tactica Shell T5 vest 2025

Inside the product

The first waistcoat in the TACTICA line, combining a selection of weatherproof fabrics with high breathability. Its ultra-compact design requires very little space to store it when not in use. Versatility is a key feature in changing conditions, which is why we created the brand new TACTICA T5 waistcoat: to protect against wind and light precipitation without sacrificing high breathability, so your skin always stays cool and dry and your body temperature stable. A blend of stretch fabrics results in an aerodynamic, space-saving cut designed to ensure complete freedom of movement on gravel and singletrack trails. In addition, its lightweight construction is ultra-compact, allowing you to carry the waistcoat with you at all times without taking up space for ASSOSOIRES and other basic necessities.

Braker
The main fabric, Breaker, is windproof and water-repellent thanks to its DWR treatment. It is also incredibly lightweight, weighing just 35g/m² and folding down to take up very little space. The Breath fabric lining supports the Breaker layer with its extreme breathability and sweat management properties, while the back panel in Sens-AIR, a new ladderproof material, adds a four-way stretch component and UPF 50+ protection.

Construction/Fit
The TACTICA T5 cut, designed to provide greater freedom of movement, has a less aggressive profile than our racingFit, combining an aerodynamic, low bulk design with perfect mobility and comfort and less restriction when dismounting.

TwinDeck
A double-layer construction that combines a windproof and water-repellent fabric with an ultra-breathable and ventilated liner.

Reflective Detailing
Reflective elements on the shoulders give greater visibility in low light and overcast conditions, when protection from wind and rain is essential.

Ultra-Packable
A lightweight construction designed to take up little space and be easily stored.
