Assos Tactica T5 jersey 2025
An all-new off-road racing jersey, engineered for high-intensity gravel riding in hot conditions
The new TACTICA Jersey T5 combines the storage capacity of off-road equipment with the cooling breathability and streamlined construction of road-racing equipment. The TACTICA T5 stores more fuel for ultra-distance riding, creates more airflow for hot temperatures, and carries less weight for all-day epics and the long, grinding climbs that define gravel racing. We also engineered a unique design for the shoulders, sleeves, and collar to ensure full, deep breathing during high-intensity efforts and complete freedom of movement on and off the bike. Full-motion comfort is critical for off-road races that require punchy accelerations, feature hiking sections, and can keep you in the saddle for 10 hours or longer.
Featured fabrics
The body textile is Trigger, a highly elastic circular knit designed to maximize cooling breathability in hot off-road conditions. Sens-AIR, an ultralight warp-knit mesh, adds muscle-wrapping support, cooling airflow, and UPF 50+ across the shoulders and sleeves. A rear panel of Stabilizator V11—the lightest, most intercooling of our stabilizing textiles – supports the expanded pocket storage capacity.
Fit
The TACTICA T5 mobility-enhancing fit is less aggressive than our racingFit, balancing streamlined, low-volume aerodynamics with multi-hour comfort and less restriction off the bike.
Raw-Cut Sleeves
Race-inspired construction that eliminates transitional ridges for clean lines and aerodynamics.
Five Ramp Pockets
Flexible fabric panels create “lids,” securing and stabilizing pocket contents with expanded capacity for ultra-endurance riding.
Reflective Detailing
Reflective elements on the pockets increase visibility in the low-light, overcast conditions when wind and rain protection are most valuable.
