The ASSOS EQUIPE RS Jersey S11 EF – CLOSE ENCOUNTER is a limited-edition race jersey created for the 2026 ASSOS x EF Pro Cycling Capsule. Built on the RS S11 platform, it combines the brand’s lightest textiles with a refined aero fit and graphics inspired by close encounters, space, and time. The result is a competition-focused cycling jersey that feels lighter, more aerodynamic, and more stabilising than the previous RS Jersey, while maintaining the same high level of breathability.
At the front, the open 3D-knit miniCheck Tex fabric delivers high breathability, high elasticity, UPF 25, and the signature ASSOS jersey texture. The pockets are anchored by a rear panel of Stabilizer V11, an ultralight, hypercooling fabric that reinforces stability and helps prevent sag when the pockets are loaded. The sleeves use the new 550CX warp-knit textile, adding UPF 35 protection, a muscle-wrapping bi-stretch fit, and aerodynamic support. Raw-cut and bonded sleeves, hem, and zipper keep the finish clean and low bulk, while Triple Ramp Pockets and the PILtec Plug-In rear hem help stabilise the jersey through hard race efforts.
