Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Care Instructions
To maintain the integrity and water-resistant properties of your Belstaff Fieldmaster Waxed Jacket, it is crucial to follow these specific care instructions:
- Professional Clean Only: This jacket should *not* be machine washed, hand washed, or dry cleaned conventionally. Professional cleaning specifically for waxed cotton garments is required to preserve the fabric and its protective wax coating.
- Rewaxing: Over time, the waxed finish will naturally wear down, reducing its water repellency. To restore this protection, the jacket needs to be periodically re-waxed. Use a proprietary Belstaff reproofing wax or consult a specialist for this service.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt or spills, gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth (cold water only) and allow it to air dry naturally. Avoid using detergents, hot water, or harsh chemicals, as these can strip the wax.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, ideally hung on a wide hanger to maintain its shape. Avoid storing it in plastic bags, as this can trap moisture and potentially damage the wax or fabric.
Compatibility
The Belstaff Fieldmaster Waxed Jacket is designed to integrate with the Belstaff Icon Gilet (sold separately). The gilet can be easily snapped into the jacket, providing an additional layer of insulation for colder conditions, thereby enhancing the jacket's overall versatility and warmth across different seasons.
