Ive been inside of Kneedraggers. It is Icon from wall to wall. Every rack. No lie. I was just in there yesterday.
I'm sure both are good.

I have two pairs of gloves, a jacket, and two helmets from them. My leather jacket is great. some of the buttons that hold the removable liner to the cuff popped out but its a tough jacket other wise. Gloves are comfortable but not as durable as i would like. My Super Duty pair has seam problems and i wont buy any super dutys again. My tarmac gloves (courtecy of TWF) are great. Good feel and good air-flow. My mainframe helmet is comfortable and my favorite. the flat black looks awesome. The alliance helmet is alright, NOISY though. Sometimes i put painters tape over the vent on the top to quiet it. hope i helped.

I bought their motorhead leather jacket for about $300 and love it. I like the cut of the jacket because it still looks cool if you gotta walk inside of a store with it. Plus I got the black one so it doesn't make you stand out when you have to walk around with it. As far at the motorhead goes, I'd highly recommend it.

I really don't care for Icon. I would much rather own A*, Joe Rocket, or a SpeedRag. I have seen many SpeedRag jackets and they are quite nice for really cheap!

I agree with Gas Man..I own a three Speedrag Jackets and they are great...A leather, Textile and Mesh. They are all great and include armor...my Joe Rocket didn't I had to buy the armor seperately..What I heard about Icon helmets conflict..some guys say its the crapiest helmet they ever rode in..too loud and cheaply made...others really like it because they say that they are light and Icon really stands by their product..one guy was telling me that one of his vents broke off and he contacted Icon...they shipped him out a new helmet...My experience with icon is I have their Super Duty gloves..they are good but they come unsewn really quick..don't now who does the stitching but they suck...other than that they fit really nice and the leather is really soft...you can pick up small stuff and it doesn't feel weird..I have a pair of AVG Demons...they are a bit more durable but you can't pick up small stuff as easy...Try on some helmets and then make your decision..by the way one vendor told me that the Icon Jackets are really good...they have seen first hand a jacket and person that were involved in a crash and the jacket not only survived but protected the rider...

I like icon gear ok. I think their helmets are heavy and they don't have very good ventilation compared to something like an arai, suomy, or a shoei. If you aren't looking to spend that much though, i'd check out the scorpion exo helmets. I think they retail for around $200. The only thing i really dont like about their jackets is that they wont zip onto your leather pants. :2cents:

I have a Joe Rocket Leather Jacket that is great and was resonable. My Icon is my light weight jacket, and was a little $$. Both my Icon and my Joe Rocket cam with armor.

Not big on Icon, But Kneedraggers is the best online store. Their service and shipping is 2nd to none. They have always taken care of me.
One more thing I can agree with Twisty on.
