Description
WHAT IT IS
Lightly insulated knickers for cool conditions and long-distance riding, with extended knee coverage and stormproof textiles. Updated with features to enhance stability, reduce seams, and improve support.
BEHIND THE PRODUCT
We redesigned the pre-shaped panels to reduce seam count, and we also shed grams without sacrificing the light compression and long-distance comfort MILLE embodies. The Knickers are updated with our race-inspired X-Frame bib design, which stabilizes the insert and body panels throughout the pedal motion and while cornering. The new model is also updated with our MILLE GT C2 insert, which adds 2mm of plush comfort for long rides.
WHEN/HOW TO USE IT
Ideal for riding in cool, damp weather when added knee coverage, moderate insulation and water-repellency make all the difference. Pair with the MILLE GT Spring Fall Jersey and accessories for total comfort over long distances in variable conditions.
FINER DETAILS
FEATURED FABRICS
RX EVO provides midweight thermal insulation for the moderate, variable temperatures of spring and fall. Its brushed inner face is soft against the skin with breathability and ECO water repellency that manage moisture from inside and out. The true black material stays black rather than blanching while stretching across the knees. CONSTRUCTION/FIT
Our streamlined regularFit provides total comfort for longer rides in cooler weather. The rawcut waist and less restrictive elastic band reduce constriction and discomfort at the waist and calf.
ENGINEERING
- X-Frame: A-frame suspension inherited from the Equipe RSR summer bibs. Limits sag on the lower back, stabilizing the insert and main body panel.
- zeroPressure Waist: A waist construction developed with a soft, highly elastic material to improve the comfort and hold at the waist, minus any pressure or pinching.
- Ultralight Leg Grippers: Elastic woven through the bands creates a secure hold without restriction.
MILLE GT C2 INSERT
- Shock-Absorb Damping Mono: Compressive foam layers in an 11mm endurance platform. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation.
- goldenGate: The stitching pattern anchors the front and back but lets the insert’s body float, allowing the insert to move with your body rather than against it.
- 3D Waffle: A patented, three-layer, perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
