We’ve teamed up with Icon 1000 to give four readers the chance to win a new jacket or helmet from the Icon 1000 range.
The Beltway and Akorp jackets are brand new designs with classic styling that conceals high-performance D3O impact protection. You get a choice of colors and fits too: choose from Black or Blue for the Beltway, or from Black/Men’s or Red/Women’s cuts for the Akorp.
There are two Variant helmets up for grabs. Our winners can choose from the minimalist opaque white Construct, or a Battlescar in Charcoal, Dark Earth, or Covert Green. The Variant exceeds every global safety standard; it also comes with a Hydradry moisture-wicking liner and a distortion-free precision optical face shield.
To enter, head over to the Icon 1000 Facebook page before 31 July 2013. It doesn’t matter where in the world you live, as long as it’s a country that USPS can deliver to.
Icon 1000 Akorp The $525 Akorp is a discreet but heavily-armored update on the classic English-style riding jacket. The coated canvas chassis is inset with premium Brazilian cowhide overlays, concealing D3O elbow and shoulder impact protectors and a Viper CE-certified back protector to help cushion the blow from untimely dismounts. A removable vest liner and black oxide hardware complete the understated military persona. [Buy]
Icon 1000 Akorp Womens There’s a version of the Akorp for female riders wanting a flattering silhouette with industrial-strength protection. A quilted satin liner and a sporty fit means this $450 Akorp offers equal parts comfort and performance. Available in red or black. [Buy]
Icon 1000 Variant The Variant is a functional hybrid of motocross and street design, with a little Halo Master Chief influence thrown in. And as with all Icon helmets, it scores heavily on protection. The Variant is ECE, DOT, SG and SAI certified, making it a good choice for the safety-conscious. The $370-$400 lid also boasts a ‘Hydradry’ wicking liner and a wide but distortion-free shield, complete with an anti-fog coating. So it’s ideal for city traffic, bad weather and hitting the trails.

Icon 1000 Beltway This $600 jacket has a classic four-pocket, long-waisted silhouette with a no-nonsense tactical vibe. The canvas body is strengthened with premium leather paneling, and there’s a unique belted rear adjustment system to keep the front free of obstructions while providing a tight, waisted fit. It’s securely weatherproofed too, right down to the magnetic closure storm flap that protects the black oxide YKK main zipper. Inside, you’ll find a removable quilted vest liner and a full complement of CE-certified D3O back, shoulder, and elbow impact protectors. [Buy]
