I completely agree that it was whack. I think Assos, for it was their advertising campaign, got a lot of negative feedback on it and, eventually and somewhat reluctantly, dropped it.
The world of cycling apparel was a very different world ten years ago, with almost all brands using white, male models for all their imaging bar their women's range. I remember @amey rightly making this point repeatedly in the Rapha thread (and Twitter I think) about how none of their models looked like him. They got the message eventually.

Ah that’s a relief. It just popped up when I was trying to ID a different pair of bib tights. Even 10 years ago that shit was whack tho.
