FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter wear?

The Gangster Icon is a classic leather jacket and is best suited for mild to moderate temperatures. In very cold conditions, you may need to layer a sweater underneath.

Does the jacket get better with age?

Yes, one of the primary benefits of high-quality leather is that it develops a unique patina and becomes more comfortable as it breaks in.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

No, never machine wash your Belstaff leather jacket. Always use professional leather cleaning services.

What is the purpose of the bellows pockets?

The bellows pockets are a signature archival feature that provides extra volume for carrying small items securely.

How should I store the jacket?

Store in a cool, dry place on a wide hanger to preserve the shoulder structure, preferably in a breathable garment bag.

Troubleshooting

Stiff leather feel upon initial wear

This is normal for high-quality leather; wear the jacket regularly to allow the material to soften and conform to your body shape.

Minor scuffs on the leather surface

Gently buff the area with a soft, dry cloth or use a specialized leather cream to help blend light surface abrasions.

Buckle hardware feels tight

Adjust the buckle settings slightly looser until the leather softens; ensure the pin is seated correctly in the eyelet to prevent premature wear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, long-lasting leather construction
  • Versatile design suitable for both riding and casual wear
  • Ergonomic accordion panels improve range of motion
  • Adjustable collar and hem for a precise fit
  • Develops a desirable patina over years of use

  • Requires professional cleaning and regular leather maintenance
  • Material may feel stiff during the initial break-in period
  • Limited ventilation compared to technical synthetic jackets

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket maintains its integrity, avoid exposure to prolonged heavy rain. When the leather gets wet, allow it to dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause cracking. Use a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple. Because this is a premium leather product, seek professional leather cleaning services if deep cleaning is required. Store the jacket on a sturdy, broad-shouldered hanger to maintain its shape while not in use.
