FAQs

Is the Belstaff Ground Jacket waterproof?

The jacket features a water-repellent finish, which means it can protect against light showers and splashes. It is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy rain.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

The Ground Jacket is unlined and lightweight, making it best suited for spring and summer. For colder weather, it can be layered over a warm mid-layer, but it does not provide significant insulation on its own.

How often should I reproof the jacket?

It is recommended to reproof the jacket with a spray after every 5 washes to maintain its water-repellent properties.

What is the best way to clean the jacket?

The jacket should be hand washed in cold water, inside out. Avoid bleach, dry cleaning, and fabric conditioners. Iron on the reverse side at a low temperature (max 110°C) without steam.

Does the jacket have an internal pocket?

Based on the description, the jacket features a chest patch pocket and side-entry hip pockets. There is no mention of an internal pocket.

What does 'dry waxed' mean?

Dry waxed cotton refers to a type of waxed fabric that leaves minimal residue on the hands or other surfaces, offering a matte finish compared to traditional oily waxes. It still provides water resistance.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The dry waxed coating may need reapplication. Use a suitable reproofing spray after cleaning, following the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean and dry before application.

Jacket feels stiff after washing.

This can occur with waxed cotton. Ensure you are hand washing in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents. The fabric should soften with wear and the natural oils in the wax.

Minor wrinkles or creases after storage.

Iron the jacket on the reverse side at a maximum of 110°C without steam. Use a pressing cloth to protect the fabric. Alternatively, wearing the jacket can help smooth out minor creases.
