FAQs

Can I wash the Trialmaster in a washing machine?

No. Machine washing will remove the wax finish and ruin the water-repellent properties of the cotton.

How often should I re-wax my jacket?

This depends on frequency of use. If you notice water no longer beads on the surface, it is time to re-wax.

Is this jacket CE rated for motorcycle safety?

While it is a historic riding jacket, please consult the specific product tags to see if your version includes modern CE-rated impact armor.

What should I do if the jacket gets wet?

Hang it on a wide coat hanger in a well-ventilated area to dry naturally, away from direct heat sources like radiators.

Does the corduroy detail require special care?

Keep the corduroy clean by brushing it lightly with a soft brush to remove dirt and prevent wear.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the fabric

The wax coating has likely worn thin. Apply a new layer of wax to the affected areas.

Stiff or waxy feel on the exterior

This is normal for waxed cotton. If it feels excessive, ensure the jacket was not stored in direct heat and gently buff the surface with a lint-free cloth.

Difficulty operating the belt buckle

Ensure no fabric is caught in the buckle mechanism and wipe away any dust or wax residue from the hardware.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Heritage-inspired design with long-standing durability
  • Highly functional pocket layout for outdoor use
  • Effective wind and water repellent properties
  • Reinforced stress points for increased longevity
  • Versatile style suitable for both riding and casual wear

Cons

  • Requires periodic re-waxing to retain water repellency
  • Cotton construction is heavier than modern synthetic alternatives
  • Limited stretch compared to specialized technical motorcycle gear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Trialmaster is designed to be worn over standard layers, but if you intend to wear it over heavy protective motorcycle armor, you may find the fit quite snug. For care, avoid machine washing or dry cleaning, as this will strip away the protective wax finish. If the jacket becomes dirty, clean it with cold water and a soft brush or sponge. To maintain its water and wind repellent properties, you must re-apply a professional-grade wax periodically. Store the jacket in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent the wax from melting or becoming uneven.
