No second thoughts, go for it friend. I have been using Spartan Helios for more than 2 yrs, and the jacket is absolute VFM. Daily use in Bengaluru conditions means, dust will get accumulated on the jacket very soon, but then its easily washable. Cheers !!! |

Thanks! Will check it out in person at Lets Gear Up and make the purchase soon. Did you also get it from there? How's the fit? As in - did you have to go one size up or down? |

Sorry for back-to-back posts, the time limit to edit the posts had expired. Since the Icarus and Breezer are not available in XXL sizes in their respective websites, I have another query: Which riding jacket is better among these two for all-weather conditions: 1. Spartan Helios: http://www.spartanprogear.com/Detail...=0&cat=0&typ=1 2. Cramster Eclipse: http://www.cramster.in/Products/Cram...d-1333203.aspx Also how good (or bad) is the DSG Aero: http://www.planetdsg.com/dsg-aero-jacket-p-1720.html At 5K, is the DSG Aero a good buy? The Spartan Icarus would have been ideal but it is not available in XXL size sadly. |

hello guys, I bought the SS jacket from US and the armour has broken into pieces now on the shoulder and elbow. Is there anyway to replace them here? Can I fit any other armour, if yes where can I get them? |

With the summer just around the corner, I am looking at buying a mesh jacket and am considering the Icarus jacket from Spartan ProGear. |

Have been using Spartan Helios almost from the day it was launched. Have done about 14K km & one fall since then. Having used Joe Rocket & Power Trip, this jacket is a good value for money for me. Perfect for everyday use. BTW, Helios is offered with Knox Armor for a peanut price as upgrade at the time you buy & IMHO, you should opt for it, for you should go for Helios. |

I'd already decided on and have bought the Icarus. This is for my everyday summer use. Already own a Fieldsheer jacket and my budget was a bit tight. |

Oh!! Sorry, didn't notice the posted date. I only noticed Naveenroy & then posted my review. Icarus for a everyday use is perfect choice for everyday use. Not so expensive, but at the same time not so poor in quality either. If I had Icarus that day, I would've done for it too. |

Any reviews on the riding boots from Puma? Check this: http://www.outdoortravelgear.com/pro...ots/seal-brown I love the brand, prefer it for my automotive use. If good, I would most probably go for these. In other news: http://www.autocarindia.com/auto-new...ru-372561.aspx |

Would have liked it a bit more snug around the arms though - there should have been one more tightening button. |
