I own several different jackets including the two brands you mentioned..i interchange the pads all the time..the elbow pads might be slightly different in shape but not noticeable when wearing it. So yes they are fine to switch out.

I have swapped out the ****ty 'pads' in my leather to knox armor. The usually elbow/shoulder pads are usually pretty good, but back pads vary quite a bit from 1 manufacturer to another.

Ya I picked up the jacket. It is in 8.5-9 condition. Icon Daytona white (125) I swap a crusty mesh joe rocket mesh jacket ($40) elbow pad to the icon. Fits fine. Can't even feel the difference.

Thanks for the help. Won't have got it if you guys didn't respond.

BTW the jacket is PIMP!!
