Abrasion protection wasn't enough for ION's approach to functional and smart protective gear. That's why they amped up the E-Sleeve. The Sleeve construction offers a compressed fit to make sure everything stays in place while biking. For added light-impact protection ION uses a 3D-shaped protection pad. The pre-shaped form and strategic cuttings of the pad enable it to fit the natural posture of your elbows and make sure that the pad can follow those movements. In case of a crash, a non-sewn layer on top of the sleeve makes sure that you get a bit of sliding ability, preventing the pad from riding up in contact with the ground.
Have not had a chance to use this but Im sure this will be useful, especially since it has open pockets making it easier to remove wet clothing in a public space (beach)
The ION website is well organized, intuitive and easy to buy, after a purchase the assistance replied speedy and the year immediately solved the problem. They are very satisfied with the treatment. Ion is a guarantee for quality and for those who buy on their site. Thank you
Very comfortable and resistant shoes. I had the previous version during 4 years and just bought the new one. Happy with the design and quality of material. The scratch is stronger and the weight continue to be one of the best. I sent back the Crankbrother similar shoes that I bought to test, to come back to the original best model I had.
