They’ll fit with a minor modification.  All I had to do was cut (shorten) the Velcro on the side straps of the top pad.  These photos were before I trimmed it so you can see the excess above the arrow-head ear-guards.

Some feedback on these pads. They feel very good on your face.  I like the feel of them when you mimic an impact to your mask by pushing on the pads.  I haven't had a hit in them yet, but friends have and they say it feels fine but the "whoosh" of air is different when the pads compress. I'm sure it's probably like your first impact in an F3 when the springs "tink" that first time.

The pads are a bit thicker than some pads, so you get a bit of an increased stand-off in the Icon.  This is a plus for me and I believe will also be more protection than stock pads.

I really wish we could get Windpact to produce these for regular frames (read not special order for UA or Evoshield).   Because it's not cost-effective to buy a frame for the mask pads.
