I asked my friend about Icon and he said it's like Gucci but for "bikers". I've never seen the stuff, only online.

Being the "Gucci" Of motorcycle gear isn't necessarily a bad thing. Gucci is a really expensive......otherwise its good quality. I would've thought that Dainese woulda fit that moreso.

Re: What do you guyys think of the Neo-Daytona Hero Jacket from iicon (Apex i ITR)

i have the hero leather jacket.

I love it. it replaced my too small tecknic chicane jacket. I have it in white.

It fits well has good armour and is very visible. (always a good things)

yeah i can see why people might think its a poser jacket. but i don't care i like it better with the patches than the plain neo daytona jacket.

I think expensive and nice when I think gucci; I'd say Dainese is more of that...

i see everything on that jacket being like a car; i would never plaster my car with all that krap.

it make no sense if you have lets say a penske shock yet there is an ohlins patch across your chest. i guess it would make sense if you had everythign on the jacket...

Yup that's exactly why.
It's just my opinion.. the jacket is really popular so I'd assume to most it won't matter.
