A fully graphic Hero version of leather Merc jacket - who would have guessed? Our first Hero jacket went absolutely Richter, so being the marketing geniuses that we are, we thought another one might be in order. That's the story behind the Hero Leather Merc jacket. Clever product from clever people.
Features
Durable 1.2-1.4mm leather chassis.
Custom rubber sponsor badging.
Tailored fit for aggressive riders.
Removable CE field armor impact protector elbow.
Removable CE field armor impact protector shoulder.
Removable insulated windproof liner.
Strategically placed perforated leather for breathability.
Pros: You feel like you're bullet-proof in this thing! It's sturdy, thick, and the armor is tough. Everything is perfect - just what you'd expect from Icon. The fit is very flattering, even for girls who've got a bigger bust. Doesn't smush! The decals are tight, and it looks so good. Remove the lining and pads, and it becomes a bit lighter and more flexible; easier to wear around when you're off the bike. It even has a secret pocket inside.
Cons: Only problems are its weight - that is with all armor and lining inside. It needs to be worn into and wearing it while riding takes some getting used to. I live in Hawaii, so it's pretty hot, but I knew it would be going with a leather jacket. And it does take up a lot of room in my closet... that's being picky, though.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
What an awesome jacket! I totally recommend it and I am so glad I bought it. I love it. Thank you Kneedraggers and Icon! Keep the killer stuff for chicks coming!

Pros: This jacket has a good fit and looks great. With the liner in it's very warm.
Cons: Even with the liner out, this jacket can be pretty warm in hot weather. The mesh panels help a bit, but zip vents would be really nice.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Comments: I really like this jacket. It's a good value for a nice quality leather jacket that will give you great protection.
