The blue Ultraz winter base layer is very warm. The regular black with blue stripe is second warmest. The fall spring baselayer is about half the thickness of the black w/ blue stripe and not as warm. I wear the fall spring baselayer in the high 30F, the black w/ blue stripe at about 32F freezing and the all blue Ultraz for anything below freezing.mendiz wrote:How much is the warm difference between Spring LS base layer and Winter baseblayer?

The spring is half as thick as the winter (black with blue strip) and a lot thinner than the winter ultraz (all blue).
I use them a lot of variations depending on the temperature, the effort and the leght of the ride.
I use the ultraz only under -5°C because it is really warm.
The normal winter base layer (black with blue strip) I use between -5-10°C, depend of what I wear over it. The -5°C side with the Ultraz jacket, the +10°C side with just a thin long sleeve jersey.
The spring base layer I use 0-15°C, depend of what I wear over it. The 0°C side with the Ultraz jacket, the +15°C side with just a thin long sleeve jersey.
I think you can go down about 5 °C with the winter base layer and about 10°C with the ultraz winter base layer.

One question regarding assos jackets' sizing.
I have LS RS 2/3 in size M and it feels and fits quite tight overall, some creasts form at the front side but nothing drastic.
As I wear everything assos in size M I went with M for Johdah (RS 3/3) as well. But after couple of rides I am having a feeling it is too loose. I haven't tried size S though, maybe unfortunately. Measured myself and their site suggests S. 184cm, 74kg, 81 waist and 91 chest.
What do you guys who have Johdah wear? And how does it compare to your other assos clothing?
I also wanted to get SS RS 2/3 in current archive sale but am now torn which size to get.
Interested to hear your experience and opinion.

Yeah, I wear the same size RS 2/3 stuff as the Jodah but it is looser. The 2/3 stuff is fitted, like aero jerseys, I would describe the Jodah as having a trim fit but there is room for the thermobooster and baselayers underneath.
I had it on the other day with the blue baselayer and the longsleeve thermobooster and it worked well. I think it's trim for a winter riding jacket but I like the way it's cut overall.

Is there much of a difference in fit between the RS Prof SS jersey and the RS Aero SS jersey?
Does the Aero have different material or a different cut?

Related to this. In the spring/autumn I'm using Habu tights without pad and have bibs underneath. Habus are worning out and would need a replacement. I'm thinking of Equipe RS spring fall S9 tights. Those are only with pad and I'm thinking that how does those compare to Habu. Any opinions?kode54 wrote:Its warmer than the LL.habu

Funny that you mention the sizing. I've been wearing M for almost 10 yrs with Assos. I checked the sizing chart recently and it says I should be wearing a S. Is it vanity sizing? Not sure, but I bought the S in Johdah and Mille winter tights and the fitment doesn't seem much different than the M. BTW, I have a Bonka jacket and Bonka tights, both in M and feels similar. The slight difference being that it does take a bit longer to put everything on...and it also feels a bit more snug without being overtly tight. I have a RS 2/3 Gilet in M and it fits snug. I sometimes wear than under the Johdah without issues.GaBa wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 8:31 pmOne question regarding assos jackets' sizing.

Same here. With the blue Ultraz baselayer...its great. The Johdah despite the ultra high cost, is one of the best technical jackets I have. Material fit and finish is superb. I was skeptical at first, but bit the bullet and went for it and have no buyers remorse. Great jacket and overkill for those that don't have temps below 30F.kytyree wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 5:56 pmYeah, I wear the same size RS 2/3 stuff as the Jodah but it is looser.
