Got a new jacket!!!
This jacket is AWESOME. It's super-protective, doesn't seem to be as hot as most leather jackets. And one plus is that it's not as girly as most of the jackets made for women.
Actually, I think Cobra1Day has this same jacket (but for men). I got it at a discount from my work (early b-day present from my momma) and it's definitely going to keep me happy and safe from road rash

You crack me up. You are seriously misinformed my friend.
Out of all of the gear I have looked at and tried on, Icon makes one of the most protective, and padded jackets out of all of them. My Joe Rocket was practically made of styrofoam and I know that if I got into a wreck with it, it wouldn't do nearly as much for me as a leather one such as this would. You clown on it because of the name and such but don't you think AlpineStars is just as trendy? Hell they sell it at Pac Sun!
They don't price jackets just because of the name. A $400.00 jacket is priced that way because of several things. Arai helmets aren't exactly $600.00 because of the name...they're obviously good helmets!
If I was looking to be trendy/fit in, I'd just ride around in a skirt and high heels or a wifebeater.
And if I'm not mistaken...don't "Squids" not wear gear...and that's why they are labeled such?
