What Assos is saying:

BEHIND THE PRODUCT

GTS marks the introduction of the second generation of MILLE—an all-new bib short that builds on the iconic GT shorts’ Total Comfort formula with its plush double-layer insert, fatigue-reducing textile, and revamped fit. We’ve engineered it for committed riders looking for added comfort during training to everyday riders seeking maximum long-distance support.

FEATURED FABRICS: The OSSIDIA textile—developed specifically for the MILLE GT c2 platform—strikes the ideal balance between frictionless comfort and muscle-supporting compression. Its warp-knit composition is made with ultrathin, elastic yarns for muscle hold, breathability, and a silky-smooth wrap along your low back and thighs.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT: We adapted the patterning of our S9 race shorts, using its two-panel “butterfly” lower to smoothly wrap your legs, lock the insert in place as you pedal, and reduce friction with its minimal seams. Above this, its Xbib straps feature calibrated stretch throughout, with the rear section using a single strap to form an A-frame for added stability. The fit that results is a more responsive, compressive regularFit, ideal for a variety of body types and riding styles.

Rapha Men’s Cotton T-Shirt Review: Stylish, Comfortable, but a Bit Pricey

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ The Rapha Men’s Cotton T-Shirt delivers on style and comfort with a relaxed yet cool fit that aligns with current trends. It’s not meant to be slim-fit, and the cut feels casual and modern. Compared to previous Rapha Logo T-shirts, the sizing is now more consistent after the “size shift” last year. I used to wear an M in their older shirts, but now size S fits perfectly. The fit is similar to the older Logo T-shirts but slightly more boxy, with noticeably wider sleeves, which I think is clear in the comparison photos. Fabric and Comfort The fabric remains one of Rapha’s strong suits, with soft organic cotton that feels high-quality. Although it’s a bit thinner compared to their older shirts, the difference isn’t drastic—certainly not as significant as with the new Cotton Hoodie. The T-shirt is very comfortable, offering the softness and durability I expect from Rapha products. Design and Aesthetics I personally like the updated design. The older Logo T-shirts had a mo...

Rapha Men’s Cotton Hoodie Review: Disappointing Quality and Fit

⭐️ ⭐️ The Rapha Men’s Cotton Hoodie was something I had high hopes for, but unfortunately, it left me disappointed. This hoodie is supposed to have an oversized fit, but in reality, it just feels too large and baggy. I've always been a size M in Rapha’s men’s clothing, but things have changed over the past year. While their cycling jerseys still fit fine in M, I’ve had to size down for their off-bike clothing. Normally, sizing down to an S works for me, but this hoodie has a really awkward fit even in size S, as you can see in the pictures. The sleeves are excessively long and super baggy under the arms. The overall length is also too much, making the whole fit feel off. From the same Rapha Cotton Line, I own two t-shirts in size S, and they fit as they should—unlike this hoodie. The inconsistency is frustrating, especially for a brand that usually nails its fit across different product ranges. The value is terrible. Paying €110 for this hoodie is out of the question, but even at ...
