Which is a nice way of saying its one of the thinnest.But that tough buffalo leather is backed up by Spidis excellent Warrior protectors at the elbows and shoulders, and its got a slot to easily install a highly recommendedback protector.

In an incredible show of restraint from a European apparel maker, the Rock (like its perforated cousin, the Spidi Garage jacket), is 100% bereft of any and all exterior logos. That fact alone allows this jacket to stand alone as not just another over-branded motorcycle jacket, but as a casual fashion piece, too.

But it is a motorcycle jacket, with subtly articulated sleeves, a drop tail for coverage, a snap-loop tab to keep that coverage in place (and just say no to crack).

Every motorcyclist should have a few options in the closet. With the new Rock jacket, Spidi makes it easy to justify adding one more.
