Icon Overlord 3

This collection contains the black Icon Overlord 3 CE, a short-cuff motorcycle glove for warm-weather riding. Its Cool Mesh backhand is designed to move air, while an Ax Laredo synthetic palm provides a leather-like contact surface. A D3O knuckle protector adds impact coverage without turning the glove into a bulky gauntlet.

Protection and construction

Icon states that the Overlord 3 glove is tested to EN 13594:2015 Level 1. The official specification lists a D3O knuckle impact protector, Cool Mesh chassis and Ax Laredo palm. The hook-and-loop wrist fastening should be closed firmly so the glove cannot slide off the hand.

Fit and intended use

Choose the size from the product-page chart and check both hands. The glove should sit close through the palm and fingertips without restricting a full grip. Make sure the D3O protector remains centred over the knuckles and that the short cuff works comfortably with your jacket sleeve.

• Close your hand around the grips to check for bunching or pressure points.
• Operate levers, switches and the throttle before riding.
• Confirm that the wrist closure stays secure through the full range of movement.
• Remember that touchscreen response can vary by device and screen protector.

The ventilated chassis makes this a mild-to-warm-weather glove. Icon does not specify waterproofing or insulation, so choose another design for sustained rain or colder riding. You can compare cuff length, materials and weather protection in Moto Central's wider motorcycle gloves collection.

Care and inspection

Follow the supplied care label, remove surface dirt gently and let damp gloves dry naturally away from direct heat. Inspect the palm, seams, D3O knuckle area and wrist fastening after a fall or visible abrasion, and replace the gloves if their protective structure has been compromised.
