Spidi Netix Mesh Jacket The fully mesh Spidi Netix jacket is light, comfortable, and ideal for sport touring to everyday urban use. The external mesh allows massive air movement and at the same time a good level of abrasion resistance and a solid base for internal CE protectors. This jacket features reflective areas, wide waistline adjusters, a connection for fastening to jeans, back protector-ready inner pocket and CE protectors. Comes ready to be equipped with the Spidi H2OUT Waterproof Jacket Liner (sold separately).

I was looking for a summer jacket. It gets a little hot in Atlanta, and figured I should actually wear a coat this year. I was looking for a not-gaudy, not-black jacket. Wow, are those 2 criteria tough to find.
Luckily this Spidi coat fit the bill. The design is clean. There are few flashy bits, just a small logo on the back. AND, the grey one is a pretty great color.
First impressions: this jacket is SMALL! I wear a 44 jacket (17, 32/33 fitted shirt, athletic build), and I was popping out of an XL. Had to go with the 2XL. (As an aside, Revzilla was fast with the return, but I was a little bummed I had to pay to ship the coat back). 2XL fits fine. The arms are not huge, so if you are a muscle head, not the brand for you. However, the shoulder and elbow pads seem to be in comfortable spots. Build quality seems solid. I like the bright red interior mesh lining. The jacket feels super light, we'll see how well it holds up.
It's still cold, so I haven't been out in it. I picked this coat up on sale, so woohoo for bang/buck ratio. I'll update the review once I get this outside in a few months.
Yes, I recommend this product.
