I got this jacket in the middle of the summer, and most of my friends thought I was crazy to wear leather in the heat of summer. But I was pleasantly surprised by how cool this jacket kept me and it turned out to actually be a very good all weather jacket.
I stayed cool in the summer while riding canyons with the liner removed and the vents opened, yet I was warm during cold morning rides to work with the liner installed.
Listen up ladies; most importantly, I love the fit. As we know, for a woman this is ultra important. Most jackets feel boxy, which is not only uncomfortable but suicide to a girl’s waistline. This jacket is cut to fit curves and is adjustable on the sides.
I think Icon did a good job in the stylingit’s not too over the top, but not boring either. There’s just enough of the trademark rebellious Icon flavor to let people know just who you’re rockin’. If I had one wish, it would be to have a few more color options though. Either way, I definitely think the suit and tie folks at my office are secretly a bit jealous.
