Construction
The hK.sturmNuss features five pattern pieces, three different textiles and nine components. The central panels most exposed to rain are made of TRITON 2019 to ensure maximum protection. The side panels are made of ultralight four-way stretch TRITON 0017 to ensure that the sturmNuss follows your pedaling movements exactly.
Triton Adaptive Fabrics
A brand new family of water protection fabrics developed by the ASSOS textile laboratory, specifically engineered for the ASSOS clima.X product range.
The ASSOS Textile Laboratory developed the TRITON family of fabrics to provide a superior impermeability / vapor-permeability ratio. TRITON fabrics are able to adapt to changes in ambient temperature thanks to “flexible membrane barrier technology.” When the temperature is low, the membrane reduces permeability, helping to retain body heat. As the temperature inside the garment rises, the membrane’s pores open to allow accelerated vapor transfer.
TRITON fabrics are composite textiles, meaning the delicate inner TRITON membrane is protected by application-specific inner and outer fabric layers that enhance the process of staying dry by allowing evaporation while protecting from the elements.
About Waterproof Cycling Trousers
Waterproof cycling trousers offer wet weather protection for your legs. They are usually made from a durable material and feature a re-inforced seat area. Waterproof cycle trousers are cut for use on the bike and to offer freedom of movement with articulated knees. It's important to wear a breathable under garment underneath waterproof trousers, this allows your skin to breath and helps minimise moisture build up inside the trousers, if you don't you could get wet from the inside.
About the Assos brand
Assos are one of the world's pioneers and specialists in producing high quality cycling clothes and accessories. They are located in a region of Switzerland that has maintained a long standing tradition in first class textile engineering. In the 1970's, Toni Maier-Moussa, founder and chairman of Assos accidently invented lycra cycling clothing, whilst trying to create the ultimate bicycle. During the wind tunnel tests of the first ever carbon-fibre bike, Toni inadvertently found that lycra downhill ski racing suits had much less drag than the woolen-knitted cycling clothes of the time. To this day Assos firmly believe in total product competence, delivering optimum function and comfort, by researching and making its cycling clothing and accessories from the very best materials.

Assos Shorts and Tights
ASSOS apparel is cut for a close anatomic fit that doesn't restrict your movement in the riding position. The bib straps might pull when standing upright but will 'click' into place in the tucked cycling position.
TIR Fit
Assos TIR shorts share the same height measurements as XLG size shorts but feature a wider, more accommodating cut for those with larger builds.
