FEATURED FABRICS
The shorts’ primary textile is OSSIDIA, striking the ideal balance between frictionless comfort and muscle-supporting compression. Its warp-knit composition is made with ultrathin, elastic yarns for muscle hold, breathability, and a silky-smooth wrap along your low back and thighs. The front panel is made with LOSANGA, a new ASSOS-developed textile that eliminates pressure against sensitive areas.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT
The GTO straps and leg panels are constructed using our rollBar and one-piece Butterfly panel for proven stability. Each leg panel features our louvreTec darted construction, which tapers down the outside of each thigh for a custom, compressive hold. The GTO has two leg lengths: STANDARD and LONG (+3cm vs standard).
ENGINEERING
- zeroWaist: A raw-cut, tape-reinforced edge for the smoothest transition possible between the body and fabric panel. More comfort with less pressure.
- superFlat X-FRAME: A single section of elastic material—folded over on itself—forming a supportive X-frame that delivers limited vertical stretch in the rear.
- skinGrip finish: Raw-cut edge with minimal silicone treatment secures the shorts in place without any excessive pressure.
INSERT
- MILLE GTO c2 Insert: Constructed with our proven stitch-free goldenGate side panels and reversed seams throughout for frictionless comfort. The front section features our new sunDeck superlight—successor to our iconic kukuPenthouse—made using an ultrasoft foam-free textile to form a preshaped cup that both supports the male anatomy and promotes maximum ventilation. The insert introduces our twin21 System made of three separate layers:
- microShock: 11mm of lightweight foam creates the foundation of the insert, relying on its proven shock-absorbing composition.
- filterFoam: 10mm of lower-density matrix foam is sandwiched between the microShock and 3D waffle to fully absorb microvibrations. Open-cell structure exhausts excess moisture.
- 3D waffle: This patented next-to-skin, 3-layer perforated foam increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
- whirlKrater: Proprietary system of holes, strategically placed to boost air circulation.
