We all love icons. Especially those well designed, clean and minimalistic icon sets that seem to work just right in our layout. With the new iOS 7 launch, stroke styled icons have become quite popular. The truth is that, in the right context, they can be the element that will add that extra touch to the overall design. Here is a collection of awesome, free icons in .psd or vector format from around the web. Enjoy!
Tab Bar Icons iOS 7 by Pixeden
Although we are not big fans of the iOS 7 UI look and feel, these icons by Pixeden are truly awesome, especially in the context of minimalistic layouts. Be it a website design, an app design, even on stationary such as business cards, they really do the trick. Simple lines, clean shapes, straight to the point. A filled version of the icon set is also included.
They are provided in .psd and .ai format for all you vector junkies out there. Be sure to check all the volumes of the iOS 7 Tab Bar icons at the Pixeden site. There are about seven till now. We provide the link the first volume.

A dribbble gem, this is is a sexy, ultra-super minimal set designed by this guy: http://dribbble.com/Grigoriev
Nice stroke widths, that work on very small sizes too, and play well on flat designs. They come in a .psd file with pure vector shapes. Yummy.

Hi, Jonh, really great article! Maybe you could help me?=) I used this line of the code “-o-transform: scale(1);” to scale my icons in Opera properly, however it didn’t help me. Maybe it is because of specifically these icons, that I am using – https://mobiriseicons.com/
Is it possible that something is wrong with them? What do you think? And thank you for sharing such awesome icon sets.
Hey, thanks for your comment and for sharing another great icon resource. I believe the most appropriate person to ask is the icon set developer / designer, they should be able to provide sufficient info on debugging this. Thanks again!
