Had the pleasure of working alongside JK and the man is an absolute genius and one of the nicest human beings to boot! So pleased to see him getting the credit he deserves. The passion and details he puts into his work speaks for itself in the final product!

James was the best part of Roroc. The enginehawk brand had such potential but their greed was the undoing. Great to see he is now working in the industry with someone worth of his talents.

James is a great guy, lucky enough to meet him and chat whilst he was at Enginehawk. His thoughts and approach to Motorcycles’s clothing makes him stand out in the market for me

The best possible advert for Spada, showing that they care. They'll be my next purchase!

This is like a lecture on design engineering. The amount of detail in reasoning, inspiration, and practicality attitude towards innovation is amazing. <br><br>About the waterproofing and the approach to look at the civils snd workers about what they wear is such an overlooked approach. Brilliance.

James’ enthusiasm and passion for his work is clear to see. That he works for a company that makes motorcycle gear is great news for motorcyclists. I’ll definitely check out Spada’s gear when I get a chance.

Really interesting seeing the Spada brand getting a "reboot" with a designer who seems so practically minded. Particularly intrigued by the new indigo jeans, they're AAA rated and a great price, and importantly - they look like actual jeans!

This youth is great, I'm liking his enthusiasm and skill. I haven't seen anything I wouldn't buy and am now thinking of ditching everything I already own and becoming a Spada fan boy! I wear my bike gear as casual wear, work wear and of course riding. He's nailed it. If the quality lasts at work as well as riding etc. then I think I just spent a few grand in my head!!Great video content and fantastic range of clothing.

I only became aware of Spada a couple of years ago and dismissed the brand despite riding for the entire time they've been around. <br><br>I'll be paying a lot more attention in the future, really impressive.

Some really nice looking products, and if the passion he shows actually comes across in fit finish and quality, Spada will be onto a winner.
