When I shop for gears the 1st thing I look for is the kind of protection they offer. 2nd is the comfort. 3rd is the style.
I had the Icon motohead leather jacket but too bad it was too big on me. Very nice leather (better leather than some A*). I also use the Icon leg armors. Great protection for the knees and lower legs. I also have the Icon primer tank bag. It's small enough to carry around yet big enough to fit my wallet, phone, keys and lunch box. Yes, I do bring lunch to work. As far as their helmets and gloves go, I was never attracted to them.

I think brand loyalty play a big factor in my decision too.
Helmet: 1) Shark 2) HJC
Leather Jacket: 1) Dainese 2)A*
Textile: 1)A* 2) Fieldsheer
Gloves: A*
Boots/Shoes: Sidi
