I got the dark tint one and even when it get dark it's easy to see through. Does an awesome job during super bright days, and easy to clean.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Icon Pursuit Perforated Gloves Fits like a glove... Youve heard it a thousand times, so have we. What actually defines how a glove should fit We think the new standard is Icons Pursuit glove. Supple sheepskin leather conforms to your hand. Plastic knuckle armor for protection, but hidden for a refined look. All over perforation for all day comfort. Reinforced goatskin palm to combat those nasty encounters with the asphalt. Try it on for yourself and then decide. This is what a glove was meant to be. Pittards sheepskin chassis for great fit Goatskin leather palm overlay for durability Integrated knuckle armor for protection Secure wrist closure keeps the glove in place Expansion gussets to improve overall flexibility Snap to keep gloves together while not in use

I got a pair of large and while riding for 5+ hours on a KLX250 they started to hurt my hands pretty bad after just an hour or so. Everywhere they are sewn together they put pressure on your hand, especially where your thumb and index finger meet, also on the glove the pinky and ring finger are a bit longer than my fingers. Thumb, index, and middle fit just fine. Airflow is good and stay nice and dry from sweat. I love how short they are and don't go real far up your wrist. Also I have noticed on my bike (KTM 990 SMR with Oxford heated grips) tat the are a bit more comfortable and have either worn in or my hands are just used to the stitching now.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Icon Variant Helmet - Solid Survival is a matter of enhanced situational awareness - an unforgiving maze of gravel strewn corners and malevolent steel. Comfort, vision, protection. Introducing the Variant helmet from Icon. A wind tunnel refined shape, executed in a Fiberglass/ Dyneema/Carbon matrix, along with an dual-density EPS core provide critical impact energy management. Extensive venting and a removable Hydradry wicking liner provide increase comfort by reducing rider fatigue. The anti-lift visor directs and channels airflow as it reduces the glare from an unyielding UV assault. While the extended eyeport and zero distortion optics provide unrivaled field of view. If the streets are your area of operation - equip yourself for the fight. All world standard, meets or exceeds the following dot fmvss 218 (US), ECE 22-05 (Europe), SAI AS1698 (Australia) and SG (Japan) safety and testing standards. Does not ship with SAI or SG certification stickers. Fiberglass / Dyneema / Carbon Fiber Shell Industry leading multi-inlet ventilation system Wind tunnel tested and refined Antilife visor Integrated chin EPS Air Channels reduce shield fogging Distortion free precision optics Anti-fog shield Removable Hydra-Dry moisture wicking liner Removable chin curtain

The good: Bad ace style, comfy once worn in, easy to replace lens.
The bad: gets warm fast unless moving ( I got it in black rubbatone ), pushes pretty hard on cheeks till worn in, bobble head can get pretty bad if you do not have a windscreen ( I ride a KTM 990 SMR ) so at 40 it will move your head a bit. 60 and up you will get a real good neck workout. Also it's very easy to clean bugs off with some multipurpose cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Stays nice and matte. Do NOT drop it though under the black rubbatone is white, I'll just use permanent marker it to fix that.
Even though the bad is a longer list than good
I'd buy it again if I needed a new helmet
Yes, I recommend this product.

My son loves this "Iron Man" suit. Everytime I wear it and he sees me he wants one too. I got a medium am about 5'11" ,170-180 lbs, and have wide shoulders. This fits good, if you have big forearms then you will have the mesh imprint on you for a while after you take it off. The back protector goes low, a little into my pants. Which is fine by me. If you plan on wearing this under a mesh jacket I'd order the jacket one size bigger though, because I could barely fit it into a medium ICON Hooligan Operator jacket. If its super hot you can just wear a MX shirt and still be protected pretty good.
Yes, I recommend this product.

These boots look bad ace, fit nice and are very comfy. They are a bit warm thought whilst wearing white cotton socks if your not riding (90 degree weather). They do let a decent amount of air in if you doing at least 50. Not too stiff nor too loose. I usually wear a size 11.5 boot/sneaker/flip flops so these ended up being a euro size and converted to a US 10.5 and fit me just fine.
Yes, I recommend this product.

There comes a time when lines are drawn, when decisions must be made. A time when you must choose your preferred side of the fence - a 'plain jane' wallflower or the boldest of riders. Are you the latter Do you long for the crowd's adoring screams. Do you look at the Hooligan2 Etched and ponder which colorway would best match your attitude Then you're choice is quite obvious. Ride on secure in the knowledge that your insatiable skull appetite will be satisfied. Durable fighter mesh chassis for maximum venting Heavyweight ballistic impact panels Stretch panels for increased mobility Removable CE field armor impact protector elbow Removable CE field armor impact protector shoulder Custom molded dual-density foam back pad Removable insulated liner Lined collar for comfort Internal zippered pocket for secure storage Relaxed Icon fit Imported

Love the styling. Fits great over the alpine stars bionic protection unit once you remove the pads out of the jacket. I ended up getting a large since I wear that underneath. I'm 5'11" and have pretty wide shoulders, 170-180 lbs is my weight. I gave it a excellent rating in the protection part of the review, although I have not and hope not to test that function ever.
Yes, I recommend this product.
