Assos Endurance Gloves S11

Cooling, fast-drying summer gloves built for long days in the saddle. The Endurance S11 replace Assos' GT Gloves with a more ergonomic fit, an ultra-breathable mesh palm, and a redesigned padding profile that runs consistently across Assos' four-season glove range.

Why riders choose them

• Ultrabreathable mesh palm — most summer gloves trap sweat between hand and bar, which softens grip and causes hot spots. The S11's open mesh keeps airflow moving across the palm so your hands stay drier and the connection to the bar stays secure, even on five-hour rides in the heat.
• Light, targeted padding — too much foam kills bar feel; none at all leaves your hands buzzing on rough roads. The S11 mute chatter and micro-vibrations at the contact points without numbing the bars, so you arrive fresher without losing precision in technical descents.
• Reinforced palm contact zones — endurance gloves usually wear through where the bar pressure sits. The S11 reinforce exactly those points so the glove keeps its shape ride after ride.
• Ergonomic regular fit — refined pattern reduces bunching across the back of the hand, so there's no pinching when you move between the hoods, drops, and tops.
• Fast drying — the lightweight construction sheds sweat and rain spray quickly, so gloves don't stay heavy and clammy after a hard climb or a passing shower.

Ideal for

• Hot summer rides and warm-weather endurance days (above +21 °C)
• Long road and gravel rides where comfort over hours matters more than maximum padding
• Riders who want a clean, secure connection to the bar without sweaty palms

Approved Cycling note

If you ride long in summer heat, the S11 are a clear upgrade over heavier mesh gloves: the palm stays drier, the padding is enough to take the sting out of poor tarmac, and the fit doesn't bunch when you change hand position. Pair them with a summer jersey, a lightweight base layer, and your sunglasses for a complete hot-weather setup.
