FAQs
What is the primary material of the jacket?
The jacket is primarily made from 6 oz. waxed cotton, with a cotton twill lining and polyester/viscose-rayon sleeve lining.
How do I clean the Belstaff Trialmaster Jacket?
Do not machine wash or dry clean. Clean with a sponge using cold water and mild soap if needed. Let it air dry away from heat.
Is the jacket truly waterproof?
The jacket is water-repellent and wind-repellent due to its waxed cotton construction, offering protection in rainy conditions. It is not fully waterproof like a technical rain shell.
How often should I re-wax the jacket?
The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. Re-wax when you notice a significant reduction in water repellency, typically after several years of regular use.
What kind of pockets does the jacket have?
It features four modern storm-proof bellows pockets with dual press stud closure, and a signature tilted left chest pocket.
Can I wear this jacket in warm weather?
While breathable due to natural fibers, the waxed coating makes it best suited for cooler, unpredictable weather. It can be warm in high temperatures.
What does the 'Trialmaster' name signify?
The name references Belstaff's heritage in motorcycle racing and adventure, where riders needed durable and protective gear for challenging conditions.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff and inflexible
This is normal for new waxed cotton. Wear the jacket regularly in different conditions; the fabric will soften and mold to your body over time. Avoid excessive heat which can make the wax too soft.
Water repellency seems reduced
The jacket may need re-waxing. Refer to the 'Care Instructions' for guidance on applying proprietary wax.
Wax marks on other clothing
This can occur, especially when the jacket is new or in warm conditions. Ensure the jacket is fully dry and avoid prolonged contact with lighter-colored items until the wax has settled. Store properly.
Corduroy lining feels rough
The corduroy is designed for resilience. With wear, it will soften. Ensure it is kept clean according to care instructions.
