This!
Part of the stigma is that all they make is street gear, while most of the other big name manufacturers make high end racing leathers too and then pass that technology along to their street gear. ICON strictly makes street gear and they make it look young and appealing to the hip hop crowd. That's a good thing, though most of the young and hip still don't seem to have much interest in wearing gear. Especially true around here where helmets aren't mandatory. It's nothing to see shorts, hi-tops, wife beater, flak jacket vest, no helmet, etc.... in fact that seems to be standard issue gear for most of the urban biker clubs.
