FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the waxed cotton material?

The primary benefit is its excellent water-repellency and wind resistance, providing reliable protection in various weather conditions.

How does the Racemaster Icon fit compared to other Belstaff jackets?

The Racemaster Icon features a shorter, more streamlined cut than models like the Trialmaster, offering greater freedom of movement.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it will damage the waxed finish. Cleaning should be done with a damp cloth and cool water.

How often should I re-wax the jacket?

The frequency depends on usage and environmental exposure. Generally, re-waxing is recommended annually or when you notice a decrease in water repellency.

What should I do if I get mud or heavy dirt on the jacket?

Allow mud to dry, then gently brush it off. For persistent dirt, use a sponge with cool water. Avoid soaps or detergents.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides good wind and water resistance. For very cold temperatures, it's designed to be layered with insulating mid-layers.

What color is this specific jacket?

This guide is for the Dark Navy color variant.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff or sticky

This is normal for new waxed cotton. The material will soften with wear. If it feels excessively sticky, it may have been over-waxed; allow it to air out in a cool, dry place.

Water repellency is decreasing

The jacket needs re-waxing. Follow the product's specific re-waxing instructions using an appropriate wax. Ensure the jacket is clean and dry before applying.

Wax transfer onto other clothing

This can happen when the jacket is new or particularly warm. Allow the jacket to cure after re-waxing, or avoid prolonged contact with lighter-colored garments in hot conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Racemaster Icon jacket arrives ready to wear. No assembly is required.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed as outerwear and is compatible with most standard clothing layers. Consider the fit when choosing base layers; thicker sweaters may impact comfort due to the jacket's streamlined design.

Care: Proper care will extend the life of your waxed cotton jacket:

  1. Re-waxing: Periodically re-wax the jacket to maintain its water-repellency. Use only Belstaff-approved waxes.
  2. Cleaning: Avoid washing machines and detergents, as they can strip the wax finish. Clean with a sponge or damp cloth and cool water. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush.
  3. Drying: Never tumble dry. Hang the jacket on a padded hanger to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic bags, which can trap moisture.
