Comes with thermal lenses and a visor. Comes in colors
olive and black.
Product Availability
The JT Spectra Mask is newer, so it should be commonly available, both new and used. Check out the Places to Buy links below for places to purchase it new.
I got mine in olive which I thought was a bad thing at first but then I was playing woods one time and I had three people walk right past me. I am not saying it ws the mask but I am sure it helped. It has a great viewing area. I got mine for pretty cheap under 40.00 off e-bay.
Weaknesses:
Hard to take off and put in the lense. But if it was super easy to take out that wouldn't be very good.

Review:
I remember this mask fondly.
Pros:
This mask was very comfortable, the foam around the goggles was indredible. It gripped well but was light as air and had the JT logo all around the inside of it. It offered some chin protection and good ear protection. The super soft JT visor bounced alot of balls saving me plenty of times from being eliminated. The vision was also good. The goggle edges could be seen around the nose and on the forehead but not on the cheeks or to the sides. The JT thermal very rarely fogged, only on low temperature days with high humidity. The strap had silicon gel on the inside from great grip, this mask never slipped out of place no matter the slides or dives.
Cons:
Didn't take bounces in the lower face, hard plastic as opposed to its cousin the Flex-7. The ear foam eventually fell out and sometimes left me with the mask slapping my head when hit in the sides. A portion of my jaw was left exposed by the upward angle of the mask towards the ear piece. The goggle foam eventually wore out and started to flake, leaving black speckles all over me, but served well for four hard years before it started that. There was no forehead protection beyond the visor, it was possible to take a ball under that into the exposed forehead.
Conclusion:
An all around good mask, I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a mask that performs very well and reliably for a long period of time.

Thermal lens never fogs up
Very larged angle of vision
Easy breathing
Comfortable
Covers well the face and ears
Looks good
Weaknesses:
Lens is difficult to remove. It's doable but will take some extra time when cleaning.
Conclusion:
This is my first mask and I'm very happy with it. It covers well to assure adequate protection but it still looks good. It is comfortable, you can breath easily and it NEVER fogs up on me. Plus, the price is reasonable. I'd give it a 10 if it wasn't for the lens removal system which requires time when cleaning.

Strengths:
Great mask. Very comftorable, wide angle of view. This mask is very hard to fog with the thermal lenses. It is a short mask. The drab Olive cover blends in very well while playing in the woods.
Weaknesses:
Not too much to say here. I personally don't like the rubber visor (I would prefer plastic) but I was shot on the visor and the ball didn't break just bounced off so maybee it isn't a bad thing. The foam pads by your ears fall off to easily. But that is no big thing.
Conclusion:
I personally love this mask I would recommend it to anyone. I like that it is a short mask. It doesn't cover your neck much at all. This allows you to look over your shoulder without the mask hitting your shoulder. Comftorable to wear. If your looking for a new mask that isn't brightly colored and flashy (one that won't scream here I am while playing in the woods) Get this mask.

Strengths:
Mask is INCREDIBLY comfortable
MY GLASSES FIT INSDE and don't scrape the damned INSERT!!!
THe visor can be a LIFESAVER, deflects balls off ur head, and MAN DOES THAT STING
awesome mask for the money got it for 30 bucks
Weaknesses:
not too much to say here great mask haven't really tried anything like the JT proteus of the new DYE mask but defenitly the best bang dfor ur buck as far as good masks go
Conclusion:
Great all around mask, especially for thos fo use with a slight ocular deficany, and the requirement of glasses, so good investment if u are among that group!
