FAQs

Can I wash my Belstaff Madison Jacket in the machine?

No. Machine washing will remove the protective wax finish and damage the integrity of the cotton fabric.

How often should I re-wax the jacket?

The frequency depends on usage and weather exposure. Generally, re-waxing once a year or whenever you notice water no longer beads on the surface is recommended.

Does the jacket offer enough warmth for winter?

The Madison Jacket is primarily a shell for wind and rain protection. It is best suited for transitional weather or used as an outer layer over mid-weight sweaters or knits in colder temperatures.

Will the wax rub off on my clothes?

When properly maintained and cured, the wax should not rub off. If the jacket is heavily saturated with wax, hang it in a warm room to let it absorb into the fabric.

Is the sizing true to fit?

The Madison Jacket is designed with a structured, tailored silhouette. If you plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider if you need extra room, though it is intended to provide a defined shape.

Troubleshooting

The jacket surface feels sticky or has wax buildup.

This is often caused by excessive wax application. Use a soft, dry cloth to buff the surface to distribute the wax evenly.

Water is no longer beading on the surface.

The wax coating has worn off; apply a fresh layer of official Belstaff wax to restore its water-resistant properties.

There is a slight odor from the wax.

This is normal for new or freshly waxed garments. Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area for 24-48 hours to allow the scent to dissipate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Belstaff Madison Jacket, avoid machine washing or dry cleaning, as these processes will strip the specialized wax finish. For minor surface dirt, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with cold water to gently wipe the exterior. If the jacket begins to lose its water-repellent efficacy, it should be re-waxed using official Belstaff wax products. When storing, keep the jacket in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can cause the wax to melt or degrade unevenly. Do not store the jacket while it is damp; always ensure it is thoroughly air-dried after exposure to heavy moisture.
