BRAND: To most people it's just a road. A strip of asphalt, a way to get from here to there. To Icon, the streets of our country represent freedom. They are the facilitators of our gasoline powered lifestyle. They are both the divine inspiration and the glorious end-game. "From the streets - for the streets" is more than just a tag line - it is the embodiment of our soul. That's what Icon motorcycle gear is all about. Pure performance for real world situations. Icon is not interested in some candy-ass, euro-styled road racing outfit. Icon motorcycle gear is all about stoplight to stoplight, corner to corner, here to there riding. That's it. Straight up. And that's what drives Icon to create the most innovative motorcycle gear available for street riding. It's what gets Icon motorcycle gear designers out of bed in the morning and keeps them up at night, it's what they do, it's who they are. Team No Limit’s master stunter Jason Britton, the host of Speed Channel’s SuperBikes, is a big part of ICON research & development. Just watch the show to see a lot of ICON gear in action.
SELECTION: Icon motorcycle gear offers a wide selection of street style gear. Specifically, leather jackets and textile jackets for men and women, wild graphic helmets, denim style pants, textile and leather gloves and street style boots. In 2008, Icon introduced the Automag Factory Sport Jacket, 29er Gloves, Accelerant Boots, Airframe Search and Destroy Helmets, Alliance SSR Americana Helmet, Bombshell Vest, Domain2 Warthog Helmet, Hello Boots, Merc Day Pack, Search and Destroy Vest, Alliance SSR Rockets Dead Glare Helmet, Stripped Vests, Original Timax Gloves (thank god), Victory Hero Jacket, Victory Jeans, Airframe Infernal Helmet, PDX Rain Gear, Airframe Siren Helmet, Squad Backpack2 and Ladies 29er Gloves.
FIT: Icon gear is the most forgiving and wide ranging fit available. The street styling of the gear offers a loose, comfortable fit on all of their gear. The men’s leather jackets have more of a loose fit style than the textile jackets. The textile jackets are a more snug fit so if you are between sizes on a textile jacket or you want a looser fit, choose a larger size. The women’s Icon gear does run small and most women end up with a larger size to balance the fit between chest and waist. If you are a ‘brick house’ then get a larger size Icon jacket than you normally would buy. If you are a ‘petite hottie’ then Icon was designed for you and get your normal size. Icon helmets fit like most other mid-range helmets such as KBC, HJC and Scorpion so choose your normal size helmet when you purchase.
PERFORMANCE: Icon is all about riding the street and is designed to hit the asphalt. The leather jackets are made from heavy leather that does not scratch or tear under tough street riding conditions. The textile jackets are tough enough to withstand long slides on the pavement without ripping or wearing thin and have armor for impact protection. The demin pants are just that – denim. They have reinforcements in the knees but they do not have padding against impact so be sure to wear Icon’s knee padding and field armor shorts if you are going to get after it on the street. The Icon boots have thick toes. This causes some problems with shifting on sportbikes. You may need to adjust the gear shift up to fit the toe of Icon boots under it. The Icon helmets are SNELL and DOT rated so you are getting a safe helmet with great street styling and graphics.
RETURN RATE: We have very few returns on Icon motorcycle gear. Most of the returns we do have are for sizing. Icon gloves make up most of the returns because they are difficult to size without trying them on before your purchase. We recommend that you purchase a larger pair than you normally would if you like a loose fit. If you like them snug, buy your normal size gloves.
OUR RECOMMENDATION: MetricBikes Superstore is one of the largest Icon dealers in the world because we believe in Icon gear and most of us roll street style. It is different from almost all other motorcycle gear available and that is what is great about Icon – it is an individual expression of who you are. Ride among us…
