Product Information

Full details

The Belstaff Trialmaster Jacket is an iconic, heritage-inspired piece designed for motorcycle enthusiasts and lovers of durable, functional outerwear who value timeless British craftsmanship. Its key benefit lies in its robust 6 oz. waxed cotton construction, which provides reliable water and wind repellence for protection against the elements, though it requires periodic re-waxing to maintain its weather-resistant properties. This classic garment features an adjustable belt for a tailored fit, heritage-inspired bellows pockets, and a signature checked lining, making it as suitable for city life as it is for open-road adventures.

FAQs

Can I machine wash my Belstaff Trialmaster?

No. Never put this jacket in a washing machine, as the detergents will remove the wax treatment and damage the fabric.

How often should I re-wax the jacket?

It depends on how often you wear it. As a general rule, re-waxing once a year is sufficient for most users to maintain water repellency.

What should I do if the jacket gets dirty?

Use a damp cloth or sponge with cold water to gently wipe away surface dirt. Do not use soap or cleaning agents.

Is the Trialmaster waterproof?

It is highly water-repellent due to the waxed coating, which is ideal for showers and wind, but it is not considered fully waterproof in heavy, sustained rain.

Can I attach an extra layer for winter?

Yes, the jacket is designed to be compatible with the Belstaff Icon gilet, which acts as an attachable liner for added warmth.

What is the purpose of the corduroy at the collar and cuffs?

The corduroy serves as a comfort layer to prevent skin irritation and provides extra reinforcement in areas that experience high movement.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading

The protective wax layer has worn thin; perform a re-waxing treatment on the jacket.

Jacket feels too stiff after purchase

Waxed cotton is a rigid material by design; regular wear will naturally soften the fabric over time.

Creasing or light marks appearing on the fabric

This is normal for waxed cotton and is referred to as patina; it adds character to the jacket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains weather-resistant, it must be re-waxed periodically depending on frequency of use and exposure to the elements. You can identify when it is time to re-wax when water no longer beads on the surface of the cotton. Always clean the jacket by sponging with cold water; never use soap, detergents, or dry cleaning services, as these will permanently strip the protective wax coating. The jacket is compatible with the Belstaff Icon gilet, which can be zipped in as a secondary lining. When storing, keep the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent the wax from drying out or migrating.
