What would happen if near-weightless metal alloys, carefully woven textile fibers, and thick thermoplastic rubbers were all combined to create light, effective body armor, and then built into an aggressively cut street riding jacket? What if the concept were pushed further still, and the chassis were built combining the industry's most advanced Stretch Ballistic Nylon with the proven durability of Icon leather? These are the questions that drove our designers to create the Accelerant Jacket. The results are inspiring.

Pros: This jacket is very stylish and it keeps you warm with a long sleeve quilt liner. The locking zippers on the sleeves work well. The combination of textile and leather placement on the jacket ensures good protection.
Cons: The leather is quite stiff so it'll take some time to break it in. Due the to liner, the sleeves feel a bit too snug if you're wearing a long sleeve shirt.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Unlike the Alpinestars' the textile part of the sleeve it not stretch fabric. The Blue is not like the other Icon Blue, it's more of a Purplish color, so if you fancy that, it may not be a bad thing. Without the liner one, the jacket is roomier.

| Awesome jacket! |
By Mike from Anchorage, AK
Pros: Very comfortable, fits like a second skin, thick leather and armor feels like it would definitely protect you in a fall, very stylish (my wife gave it a thumbs up, too!), I put it on when I need motivation to get back to work on my GL1000 restoration, lol.
Cons: None, yet. I'm extremely happy with this jacket.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: A large is usually just to right to maybe a little loose on me, but with this jacket a large is almost a little snug across the shoulders -- but definitely a better fit than the x-large. The torso length, however is perfect (I'm 6'0") and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the sleeves were actually long enough for me!

| Kick-ass Jacket |
By Coert from Netherlands
Pros: It looks Kick-Ass. Quality looks great. It feels like a second skin. I took a great risk by buying this jacket over the internet (no return policy overseas) but it is even better than i expected.
Cons: Nobody gives compliments about my bike anymore, everybody talks about the jacket.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: I'm exactly in the middle of a medium- and a large size according to the measurements chart. Medium fits fine (i think this jacket is not ment to be worn oversized)
Comments: I always try and then buy.
This time, buy and then try was a good choise !!!!
