FAQs

Is the Belstaff Gangster Icon truly waterproof?

It is water-resistant due to the hand-waxed finish, meaning it handles light rain effectively, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged downpours.

How should I clean the jacket?

Use a soft brush or cloth to remove surface dirt. Never use chemical solvents or detergents.

Does the sizing run true?

The jacket generally follows standard sizing, but because it is a tailored fit, it is recommended to measure your chest carefully or consult the size guide before selecting your fit.

Can I replace the hardware if a buckle breaks?

Belstaff uses high-quality hardware; contact a professional leather tailor or an authorized Belstaff retailer for repair services.

Why does the jacket look different from when I bought it?

This is a feature of high-quality hand-waxed leather. It develops a unique patina over time based on wear, which is considered a desirable trait.

Troubleshooting

Surface of the leather looks dull or dry

Apply a professional leather wax dressing designed for waxed leather to restore moisture and shine.

Leather has become stiff after storage

Gently massage the leather with clean hands; the natural heat from your body and movement will help soften the fibers.

White residue appearing on the leather

This is often excess wax; buff it out gently using a soft, clean cotton cloth to redistribute the wax.

  • Classic, timeless motorcycle silhouette

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this jacket is made of premium hand-waxed leather, care is focused on preservation rather than simple washing. Avoid machine washing or dry cleaning, as these processes will strip the protective wax finish.

To clean, use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt and dust. If the jacket becomes soaked in rain, hang it to dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as rapid drying can cause the leather to crack. To maintain its water-resistant properties, apply a high-quality leather wax conditioner periodically when the leather begins to look dry or loses its water-shedding capability. Ensure you store the jacket on a sturdy, wide-shoulder hanger to maintain the shape of the leather over the long term.
