ICON jackets/vests
How's the spine protector in that vest? Comfortable?

It's not bad. You don't really notice it. But if it's a problem, you can remove it.

I have been wondering about icon jackets as well, I actually like those armor jackets/jerseys, but I have never seen anybody wear them on cruisers. It is hard in the texas heat to wear a jacket, even a mesh jacket. It is still too hot. Almost bought a dainese jacket but the sleeves were not long enough for me. I guess Italians are not that tall.

The Icon stuff I've tried on was mid tier quality, much better than the no name stuff leatherup and similar sell, about the same as Joe Rocket and Speed and Strength but not quite as good as the more expensive leather from Rev'It or Dainese
The vest is designed to wear over a jacket so you can attach patches to it. Personally I think vests are about as useful as tassels on the handlebars.
Look for a perforated or vented jacket if you drive in hot weather.
