Icon Accelerant perforated leather jacket ....review... anyone
« on: February 09, 2013, 04:26:24 AM »
I'm looking at the Icon Perforated Accelerant jacket white , I live in south Fl and would love to own one just not sure the perforated jacket would be cool enough ???? anyone.... they quit making them  so very few left ,
 I don't want a jacket with a lot of noise  on it I like plain , but would like white leather without a 400 price :)

Quality of Icon goods is excellent. I have a Icon 7th seal  Perforated leather/Ballistic Nylon and I found it cheaper at a vendor that got shut off by Icon Mine is definitely "noisy"  but awesome. They also sew a St Christophers Medal in every jacket (inside jacket pocket) Patron Saint of Travelers.If you can find one you like at a price you can live with go for it.
One more note  there are shoulder zippered vents on all their jackets and for some reason Left one tends to jam up I have seen it on 3 different ones  it is hard to open and close wearing Jacket  I kinda bought it as a joke as when the 7th seal opens all Hell breaks loose    8)  and Yes with venting open it is fine except on 80+ days.  I used to live in Pembroke Pines  wrists unzip and waist unzips both sides

What size do you wear?  I have a Teknic Chicane perforated leather jacket

The Teknic Chicane Leather Jacket is the real deal in protection and comfort in warm weather:
 • Sports cut: Anatomical cut (with pre-curved arms) for improved comfort
• Outer shell of top quality cowhide (1.2-1.4mm thick) with 600D Poly-Cordura panels in chest and back
• TASC (Teknic® Advanced Seam Construction) Rows of hidden stitching providing maximum seam strength
• Low profile leather collar
• Teknic® Armorshield™ in shoulders, elbows and back
• Advanced elbow pocket, secures elbow armor into the outer shell
• Full Motion Arm System, a panel of stretch Spandex® that extends from the cuff to the chest of the jacket with no seams
• Full frontal perforations, allowing maximum air flow
• All zippers are genuine YKk® connection zippers
• Belt loop jacket to jeans connectors
• Hook-and-loop kidney adjustment belts
• 2 cotton-lined front pockets and 1 internal mesh document pocket
• Airtex™ lining is anti-bacterial and non-allergenic
• Reflective Teknic® logo for nighttime visibility
• Designed to integrate with the Teknic Sport and Chicane pants
 This White one is size 48 so it fits like an XL









Photos are with and without flash since it is hard to capture true color with digital cameras.  I lost weight so it is too large for me and is one of about a dozen jackets in my closet.

$110 shipped to you Cuda.

I would have purchased a L black one if I could have found one.. so it was no more work to find yours.
Here is a pic of me wearing a limited edition Icon  jacket hand numbered to 67/100. it was cool as hell  and dealer was asking $1200 for it  Retail was  $999   a little over the top with spikes and skulls  but  I didnt buy it.

Honestly I prefer plain and simple myself.That jacket was a one time aberration for me.  My everyday jacket is a Tourmaster intake 2 black  all ballistic mesh with armor  and quilted liner and nylon waterproof liner.  I do have some "devil related items on my Vision including a clutch and cam side cover that say  Devilboy 666 and my shift linkage is Candy apple red anodized  666
if it annoys people  too bad...
