This is not your typical hooligan leather jacket from Icon. The Icon 1000 Hood jacket at first glance looks very fashionable and could easily be worn as a casual jacket. When you pick up the jacket you notice just how soft and supple the leather, much like you'd find in high-fashion boutiques. Open up the jacket and inside you'll see a satin thermal liner that just makes you want to put the jacket on. Aside from the D30 armor in the shoulders, elbows, and back, you can't even tell that this is a motorcycle jacket.

Available in brown pictured here, or black with a white contrast stitch.

Two snap breast pockets are functional but you're better off using the numerous internal pockets available to you or the zippered hand warmer pockets.


Like the jacket, but aren't a fan of the hood? Don't worry, it's easily removable with a zipper and two snaps.


Available from Riders Discount, the Icon 1000 Hood leather jacket can be yours today! Be sure to check the item out on our website. If you have any questions or would like to place an order, give MIKE a call at 866.931.6644 ext. 804. Is email more convenient? Send us a message through this forum or write to us at FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM, and we'll get back to you right away!

Icon used 1.1 - 1.3mm select Brazilian cowhide with more of a sport cut. This jacket is perfect for upright riders and could even work for sportbike guys although we would recommend removing the hood. There's enough perforation to keep you cool during the hotter rides and notice the accordion panels that really blend in well to the look of the jacket.



Inside you'll find a full D30 armor suite on the shoulders, elbows, and in the back. A removable SatinCore thermal vest helps to keep you warm during the early spring and late fall riding season. The zipper pull on the Napoleon pocket is removable to add to your keychain collection. It's all about having matching accessories, fellas!





Fits true to size but with more of an American cut, so it may be a bit looser than you're used to if you typically buy more European brands. Guys, if you're worried about your gut don't fret as they've included an expansion zipper on the side to accommodate.



Seriously this is one of the best looking jackets to come out of Icon in maybe... ever? But don't take our word for it, give us a call and order one for yourself! Let us know what you think of this new Icon jacket by leaving us a comment below!

I like that it has the hood. Though I can't see how you would be able to actually wear the hood while you have a helmet on. Guess the hood is for when you are walking around and not actually riding the bike.

Sounds about right to me, on the bike would be a not a good idea for sport bike guys for sure.

That's one of the things i really like about it as it works just as well when you're off a bike, better for some of us than other jackets that you might want to only wear while you're riding.
True story.

I'd have to see it on to decide if it is nice enough for non-riding wear. I find motorcycle jackets can look stiff a lot of the time with the armor and Kevlar and everything.
I totally know what you mean but this is high end quality leather.

Its less about the leather and more about whatever lining or metal plates they might have in there.
I would have no problem wearing it for comfort wise, we do offer a no hassle exchange policy too. :D

I guess I'm being a little picky. As far as motorcycle jackets go, this one seems like a great choice.
It's all good :D Shoot me a PM if interested in giving one a try.
