Assos – Men’s Spring/Autumn Long Sleeve Base Layer – Black Series

When you hit the colder conditions that come with late autumn and early spring, the Spring/Autumn Long-Sleeved Skin Layer has the answers, with its full-arm coverage, seamless comfort, and a new medium-weight yarn blend. 

Light insulation and full arm coverage are just the ticket during those cold fall and spring conditions, where it’s crucial that you can protect your upper body against the elements. This is where the Spring/Autumn Long-Sleeved Skin Layer comes into play, fine-tuned to give you that extra body-insulating comfort when the temperature drops.

For those familiar with ASSOS’ Skinfoil base layers, Skin Layer has stepped up with a completely revamped design and all-new fibre blend. To start, it’s about 8% lighter than before and uses a circular seamless construction, which ditches the irritating side seams. This creates a smooth tubular knit that’s ultra-soft against your skin.

A cool weather-tuned blend of carbon and polypropylene yarns is now used, which effectively pulls moisture away from your skin and insulates your core. ASSOS has also bumped up the neck height by 3cm from the short-sleeve version – just one of many small details that shows the level of detail applied by the company to tuning its base layers to specific conditions.
