By the nature of a competitive market, there is a wide selection of leather jackets available, so Icon had to understand the specific needs of the rider to make their Motorhead leather worth the coin they're asking. Fortunately, Icon does their homework.
Icon's Motorhead leather is constructed of durable cowhide with excellent stitching. There are a few manufacturers who skimp on the stitching and give you high quality leather that will fall apart on impact, but that's not Icon's way of doing business.
One of the lesser discussed problems with a thick, abrasion-resistant leather jacket is the stiffness. Often, comfort of form is sacrificed for safety, but Icon has designed the Motorhead with a straight-cut fit, ample body space, and a collarless neck to comfortably accommodate any rider.
The waist expands further with the the multi-purpose vents, and the drop tail pattern prevents the Motorhead jacket from riding up. I once had a line painfully sunburned across my back from a jacket that consistently rode up.
As with most Icon jackets, the Motorhead has CE field armor at the elbows and shoulders. The arms are micro-perforated to allow air to flow up and into the body of the jacket. The liner is fully insulated and removable to keep you on the road all season.
Icon's subtle but striking styling results in a beautiful jacket with monotone stitched branding on their classic black model. You can also get this jacket in white, blue, red, yellow, or green in combination with black accents. The white is by far the most visible if you're looking for safety.
