I don't think Icon is bad... but I just don't like their styles...

When I see flashy Icon gear, I immediately think squid. Functionally, I'm sure their gear is worth the price. I'm like Ebbs, just not my style.

Yeah, thats why these guys are my first choice on riding gear! Now I'm trying to figure out what pants to get, I know I'm going to stick with Icon so its something I can wear all day while off the bike, but there are to many choices.
i have the recon pants, extra comfy but the cut is a little tight so dont expect to carry much in the pockets. vented crotch is friggin awesome FTW

not all sportbike stuff is flashy... most are vibrantly colored but, I think (other than helmets) Icon is by far the most decorative gear. Like I said... just not my style.

Got my Teknic sport leather pants over the weekend. They fit a little big but oh well. They are tight in the calves though. Hopefully they stretch a bit there. Nice pants, thick leather and comfortable.
