IconStore: A Friendly, Free Icon Library Curated by First-Class Designers
If you’re hunting for clean, well-made icons without the licensing headaches, IconStore is a gem.
It’s a free library curated from first-class designers and studios around the world—simple downloads, generous permissions, and tons of formats (SVG, AI, EPS, PNG, Sketch, even icon fonts in some cases).

Why IconStore works so well

File formats & workflow tips
Most packs include SVG (scale anywhere, style in CSS), with many offering AI/EPS for Illustrator work and PNG for quick drops.
A few include Sketch, PSD, fonts, or PDF. My usual workflow:
- Build a small icon system (16/20/24px grid), import SVGs, and normalize strokes/corners.
- Set a color token for icons (e.g.,
--icon-color) to theme light/dark modes. - Use two weights (outline + fill) to express state (inactive vs. active).
- Bundle a “seasonal” folder—swap holiday icons in code or CMS at campaign time.
Licensing (quick recap)
IconStore’s license is refreshingly permissive:
- ✅ Free for personal and commercial use.
- ✅ You can modify icons.
- ✅ Attribution not required (always appreciated).
- ❌ Don’t redistribute packs elsewhere without the author’s written consent.
- ❌ If icons are the core value (e.g., a logo builder or resellable icon product), get written consent.
If icons are components in your design (nav, settings, cards), you’re fine. If the icons themselves are the thing you’re selling, ask first.
