Looks the part, does the job and costs considerably less than the rest - Dakar jacket
Spada Clothing
Spada Clothing are fast establishing themselves as the go-to brand for motorcyclists looking for stylish gear, at an affordable price, that offers top build-quality and high safety standards and a brand that always seems to be popular on Bikechatter with reviewers. Something that has been recognised yet again in the July edition of Adventure Bike Magazine, who have awarded the Spada Dakar Jacket an 8/10 score in their independent ‘touring jacket review feature’, which rigorously tested 12 of the leading jackets on the market.
The Spada Dakar outscored the majority of the jackets tested - many of which costing up to twice as much and actually tied score with the Rukka Kalahari, whose features, quality, comfort and style were deemed no better than the Dakar, yet it costs £640.05 more, once again these results reinforce Spada's belief that high-quality and stylish motorcycle clothing can be made for a realistic price for price conscious consumers at a time of a worsening financial outlook.
