General Care
ICON® pants are tough and designed to withstand a great deal of asphalt induced abuse, but no pant can survive every conceivable motorcycle accident. Should the unfortunate occur and you crash in your ICON® pant, thoroughly review the product for any signs of structural damage (major abrasion, holes, damaged seams, etc). Should there be any damage or if you are unsure if the damage is structural, you should replace the pant. Most Icon textile pants use a coating on the shell material which reinforces the overall fabric matrix. Improper cleaning of the pant could compromise the integrity of this coating leading to material failure. Unnecessary exposure to Sunlight and UV rays should be avoided. This is most critical when storing your pant. Always store your pant in a dark, well ventilated area. Pants are best hung on a wide padded hanger. Do not wrap in plastic or other nonporous materials as this may cause the fabric to discolor. Finally, avoid exposing your pant (or any of your riding gear) to fumes or vapors from gasoline or any harsh chemicals. These fumes weaken the structure of nylon and polyester textiles lessening their inherent protective capabilities.

Pre-Cleaning
It is important to follow a few simple steps to prepare your pant for washing. Remove the insulated liner from the pant (if so equipped). When removing the liner unsnap each snap carefully - DO NOT apply excessive force - as this may break the snap. Remove all impact protectors from the pant. Make sure to close and fasten all the pocket flaps.

Cleaning
Insulated Liner - Hand wash the insulated liner in warm water with a mild liquid laundry detergent. Thoroughly rinse insulated liner with clean water to remove all detergent. Should you desire to clean the impact protectors they can be cleaned by wiping the protectors with a damp cloth. Pant - Textile Areas - Hand wash the pant with warm water and a mild liquid laundry detergent. Hand washing minimizes unnecessary stress on the garment. A soft bristle tooth brush works well in helping to remove any bug strikes or road debris. Rinse the pant with clean water to remove all detergent. DO NOT use any form of oxygenated detergent, bleach, fabric softeners, or dry cleaning chemicals. These items will damage the pant!

Drying
Insulated Liner - The insulated liner should be allowed to drip-dry only. DO NOT use a machine dryer, direct sunlight, hair dryers or any type of heater during the drying process. Pant - DO NOT use a machine dryer. Subjecting the pant to a machine dryer will damage the pant and possibly the dryer itself. The only recommended method for drying the pant is drip-drying. Do not subject the pant to direct sunlight, hair dryers or any type of heater during the drying process. DO NOT use an iron on any part of the garment.
