ION Scrub Amp jersey


The ‘drirelease’ fabric used on the front of this ION tech tee wicks well and dries quickly, and doesn’t have too much of a slippery, synthetic feel to it. It seems robust yet rides light. Extra features include a small zipped side pocket (best used for a single house or car key, emergency tenner or lift pass, but nice to have) and a lens wipe on the opposite side. The cut is casual but the Scrub Amp jersey doesn’t shift around when you’re on the bike and there’s plenty of freedom of movement in the shoulders. It’s not the cheapest tech tee but it fits well, the detail is well-observed and it feels like it’s built to last. The ‘Sanitized’ antibacterial treatment keeps pongs at bay too. If yellow and brown aren’t your thing, there are three other colour options.
