Hi, I use Spada gear exclusively, and have found it to be well made, waterproof and reasonably priced. Have a Stelvio oversuit and boots, Latour gloves, an SP16 Helmet, and use Chill Factor 2 base layers, as I ride all year round. I'm not a fashion victim though, and I'm not sponsored by Spada either, I pay for all my gear. I think it's great stuff if you don't want to blow a stack of cash on your gear, but still want to be well protected. You also get a 2 year warranty with all their products, so they must be fairly confident about the quality of the gear they make.
