RE: [ST] Spidi Jackets
I've got the Mask jacket too and it's not too bad. I think the armor as a
whole is a little thick and bulky compared to Joe Rocket or Vanson. The
vent removals on the front are awkward to remove and install and the velcro
frays the mesh. However, it's not a bad jacket. My next jacket is
definitely going to be an Aerostitch though.

I have the Mask jacket, and I'm quite satisfied, but I would not buy it
again!
It's not 100% waterproof but can resist for a while under the rain. More
than once I was able to avoid wearing a rainsuit thanks to that.
It's pretty light and confortable. Now there are around 35° Celsius over
here (just below 100° Fahrenheit) but the jacket is not too hot with all
the vents open (and no liner of course). I didn't try it in the winter yet.
What I don't like about this jacket: too few pockets. Only one small
internal pocket and only two external pockets, plus the cellphone pocket
that's just over the other two, causing an ugly bulking if you keep
something inside all three.
