I have been seriously thinking about an A* Ice in white and red. Second, I'd go with the Super Ego.

YOu might wanna go to a local shop and try them out. FOr me, most A-stars gear doesnt feel comfy on me. The pads are either too low or high, or you might get some pinching. Icon is a good brand and i believe leather is leather no matter what brand you buy. but comfortability is what i look for and is worth the extra cash. But to answer your question, a-stars over icon, and save up so you can afford some leather pants.

cool, thanks for the advice. I'm really liking the alpine stars. An old friend of mine had a jacket by them and it seemed good. I did go to the store to try the jackets on. I'm probably gonna go with Ice or Spinner.
