![If you recall correctly, my friend Emma Bass got into an unfortunate motorcycle accident caused by a large truck trying to skate across four lanes of traffic. She was a little bruised and busted but came out okay. Since then, Emma has been outfitting herself with proper motorcycle gear. She wrote me to ask how I felt about my Icon 1000 Federal jacket, and now picked up one of her own.
“Best purchase I’ve ever made besides my first motorcycle. It’s my first legit motorycle jacket and it’s ten times safer than any number of jackets I’ve owned before. Score!”
Well said, Emma. Plus, you look hot!

Icon 1000 Photoshoot
About five months ago I got an email from Thad Jackson, Icon’s Art Director, saying “I need a female to gear up and ride a motorcycle in a lifestyle photoshoot. Nothing fancy or technical, just riding. Interested?” My heart went aflutter and my eyes almost popped out of my head, “BOY AM I!” was the first thing to come to mind. Well, that and “HELL YES!”
Me, during the Icon photoshoot for their Spring catalogue on Mike Levin’s awesome custom 900SS Ducati. Read my review on the Icon 1000 Federal jacket or check out the 1000 line on their website.
Funny story… I got to ride that Duc for about 25 feet before it sputtered and died. After that, it could not be resurrected. We still aren’t sure what happened. Kind of killed most the plans for the shoot. SUCK… haha.
Review: Icon 1000 Federal Jacket
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you… the best motorcycle jacket that was ever created. I’m really not trying to exaggerate here- I believe whole heartedly that this is the best jacket ever. Read on to discover why the Icon 1000 Federal Jacket is worth every penny, and then some.
You can wear it for riding, for a night out… it’s classy and bad ass and has all the right features. It’s a freaking transforming jacket!
Because ladies were born to ride. And motorcycles were made for riding.
