........ You couldn't give me Icon gear to wear now.

I have a pair of Icon Super Duty gloves I purchased USED ( $15 )and they've held up great. They'll gotten completely saturated in the rain at least six times and still look/fit good.

Maybe I lucked out

Vemar helmets are crap. They should be around $150-200 at most. Shit for finish, and super lame visor changing system. Hex bolts? You gotta be shitting me.

I had scorpion Gloves that Wore out in like a Month...Waste fo money there...The two fingers were made of like Cloth and the other three were fake leather material Odd design...My first pair of gloves I ever bought...SHift Riding gloves were GREAT...except i bought them a size to small and I ripped the velcro sitching near the wrist

I have the ICON Tarmac V.3 Gloves now, There ok...Not great...Looking for a new pair.

Every single person i've seen on Jason Britton's show "Superbikes" is wearing ICON, so I assume since they are all superbike riders that ICON must be good stuff, though i've never owned a piece of it..

I dont know, it may be great stuff, i was just being a smart ass
