Icon Device Textile Over Pants Striking a delicate balance between style, fit and function is no easy task for the modern textile riding pant. The Device pant manages to walk this delicate line while succeeding in every category. A minimalist design speaks of a low-key style perfectly at home on any motorcycle. The relaxed pattern, dual waist adjusters, and ratchet closure fly provide an excellent riding fit. Finally, the textile chassis and full-length inseam zippers combine for both durability and easy on-off. The Device textile pant, the everyman riding pant. These pants are sized to fit as overpants. If you wear a size 34 pant - buy a size 34 Device Pant if you intend to wear them over your jeans. If you plan on running commando - buy a size 32. Features ICON Overpant fit pattern Durable textile chassis Removable / adjustable CE impact protectors Adjustable waist straps Ratchet waist closure Zippered side pockets for secure storage Inseam zippers for easy on /off

I picked up a pair of these for the colder months here in the south. 6'3, 160lbs, wearing a 32/36 jean. got the 32s and they fit over my jeans without any issues. the length was a concern when ordering, but luckily they are long enough for me to go all the way to my boot. so far ive tested them as low as 40 degrees and they performed good.
they look great, and with the inseam zipper, they dont scream "motorcycle gear" when you are out in public. the snap closure at the bottom of the leg being on the inside does give you something to snag on your pegs when leaving a stop light. once you do it once or twice youll adjust your stance to go out wider to avoid it.

Lightweight hybrid leather and mesh upper construction offers the ideal combination of durability, abrasion resistance and comfort. Synthetic leather palm construction with Clarino reinforcements provides extra durability and protection where it is needed most.

Icon Compound Mesh Jacket Necessity is the mother of invention. And the necessity of hard riding in hot climates dictated our invention of the Icon Compound Mesh jacket. A hybrid jacket consisting of 1.2-1.4mm cowhide in the major impact areas, the Compound has true street legitimacy. But hot weather riding demands active cooling so we assembled the remaining chassis from our abrasion-resistant Fighter Mesh TM . Additional components include articulated back armor plates, ratchet waist adjuster straps, articulated arms, and a full complement of CE approved Field Armor TM Impact Protectors. If your trip takes you through scorching heat and you demand the protection only leather can provide, consider the Compound Mesh jacket your ticket to ride. Features ICON Sport Fit Fighter Mesh and 1.2-1.4MM Leather Chassis Removable ICON CE Field Armor Elbow Shoulder Impact Protector Removable ICON Dual-Density Foam Back Pad Articulating External Injection Molded Plastic Back Plate Ratchet Waist Adjuster Straps Gathered Stretch Panels for Comfort and Flexibility Upgradable to Stryker CE Back Protector

great jacket. really flows air well, especially once you find out about the shoulder vents (check the video review).
im 6'3" 160lbs 40" chest with a tall long frame. i had worries about length of the jacket and sleeves, but a medium fits me very well. there is enough room to fit a hoodie underneath when the fall rolls around. sleeve length is spot on. im glad i spent the extra money over my budget to get the protection of leather, but still have a jacket that i can wear when the weather is 95+.

ive been putting some miles on this helmet for a week now and im enjoying it. they made some improvements over the exo1000, the first being the 1100 is much easy to slip on and off than its predecessor. it took a few rides for the cheekpads to break in for me, but the fit is spot on now.
wind noise is moderate with all the vents open. no whistles or high pitched noise. visibility is good, and the built in shades are great. because of the flip down shades, this helmet is a tad large and round compared to other helmets. it also adds a few ounces but not enough to consider this helmet heavy.
this helmet is great for touring and commuting.

Insulated liner?
The description of this item lists a liner. The video here and on other sites do not show the liner. Does this compound mesh jacket come with a liner? If so, would you say it is good enough to ride in 50 degree temps with it?
negative. mine didnt come with a liner. there is enough room in mine to wear a layer underneath during the colder months. the mesh breathes really well so when the temps drop this jacket will freeze you out. if the weather report here says 60 or less, i put a hoodie on underneath. i rode to work the other morning at 38 degrees and had a cold spot or two on the interstate, but otherwise fine with an extra layer in there.
