Icon Sub Dermal Glove (grey 2XL only)
Lately Icon has spent a lot of time exploring their 'innard' selves. A pathetic attempt to get in touch with their inner child. What they uncovered during these long couch sessions was the Sub Dermal glove. Not quite as gutted-up and Blistered as their previous offerings but disgusting none the less. And while they still cry themselves to sleep, it's somewhat comforting knowing that this is what exists just below the surface of Icon. Abrasion resistant premium grade battlehide goatskin palm Injected plastic knuckle armor Short cuff design with secure wrist closure Printed graphics won't fade Pre-curved palm and finger design Imported

Fits well but minor complaint.

The gloves fit very nicely and look cool to boot. The only complaint I have is the stitching on the inside of the left glove could've been a little cleaner as there is a slight protrusion in the pointer finger which can get annoying while manipulating the clutch. The right glove doesn't have this problem however so I don't know what the deal is but it's just a minor annoyance.
Yes, I recommend this product.

People always comment on how my helmet looks BA. The majority of motorcycle riders around here ride sports bikes. My friends and I are all enduro riders. Our friends say we look like a bunch of HALO Spartans on motorcycles lol. The fit was a bit tight at first but was remedied with thinner cheek pads (25mm --> 15mm). The helmet has already saved my head during numerous falls while off roading. It also saved my eyeballs as I didn't see this little twig sticking out of a branch until the last second which hit me right in the visor. Love this helmet. Going to get another Arai helmet soon as I feel like I'm addicted to buying helmets now.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I might be insane and missing something but I feel like the waist line on this jacket is too big. I'm a skinny tall guy so it makes finding cloths that fit kind of a PITA. The jacket looks absolutely awesome however.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought this because the stock pads were too thick. They squeezed my cheeks together to the point of being uncomfortable so I went from 25mm to 15mm cheek pads and now it's perfect! It's like the helmet was made for me. The difference was night and day. The cheek pads was worth the asking price but that doesn't change the fact that it's still priced a bit high.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I purchased this backpack to carry my text books around as well as my helmet. Be careful when the helmet is attached as you might bump in to things and people if you are not careful while turning. The backpack isn't huge either. You can carry about 2 thick text books and a binder but not much else will fit after that. The sternum strap was a bit much so I took it off.
Yes, I recommend this product.

How big is the shell of this helmet compared to the Nexx XR1R?
I'm at a toss up between this and the Nexx XR1R. I want this helmet due to the styling, graphics, and price but for some reason the shell looks absolutely HUGE compared to the Nexx. I really want this helmet but if the shell makes me look like some big headed freak then I'm going to have to settle with the Nexx. How big is this shell compared to the Nexx XR1R?
