What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I’ve worn this on long trail days where I want protection but don’t want to feel armored up. The back pad stays put, breathes well, and honestly disappears once I start riding. It’s the kind of layer I forget I’m wearing until I’m glad it’s there."When long climbs turn into fast descents, we want protection that works quietly in the background while we focus on the trail ahead. The Protection Wear Tank Amp fits that role perfectly, offering reliable back coverage for trail and enduro days when speed, heat, and movement all collide. With ION’s streamlined design, it layers easily under a jersey and stays comfortable from the first pedal stroke to the last descent. Built around a removable SAS-TEC Level 1 back protector, the Protection Wear Tank Amp balances certified impact protection with real-world comfort. Mesh panels and 3D ventilation zones keep air moving, while the elastic hem prevents ride-up when the trail gets rough. Stash pockets on the back add just enough storage for snacks or essentials, making this a protective layer we’re happy to wear all day, not just when things get rowdy.
