Full details

Its primary benefit is offering protection from wind and rain with a classic aesthetic. A potential caveat is that waxed cotton requires specific care to maintain its properties. This jacket is constructed from 6oz. British Millerian waxed cotton, featuring a water- and wind-repellent finish, a cotton twill lining with the signature Belstaff checked pattern, a woven Phoenix patch, and adjustable snap cuffs with antique brass hardware. It builds upon the iconic Cafe Racer design.

FAQs
What is the best way to clean the Sideline Jacket?
Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Clean by brushing off dirt when dry. For stubborn marks, use a damp sponge with cold water only, and never use soap or detergents. Allow to air dry completely.
How often should I re-wax the jacket?
The frequency of re-waxing depends on usage and environmental conditions. A general guideline is to re-wax every 6-12 months, or whenever you notice the water-repellent finish is diminishing.
Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?
The jacket is water-repellent, making it suitable for light to moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, additional protection or a more waterproof garment might be advisable.
What does '6oz. British Millerian waxed cotton' mean?
This refers to the weight and type of cotton used. '6oz' indicates a medium-weight fabric, and 'British Millerian' specifies the type of durable cotton treated with wax, known for its quality and protective properties.
Is the lining removable?
No, the cotton twill lining featuring the signature Belstaff checked pattern is permanently integrated into the jacket.
What is the purpose of the snap-adjustable cuffs?
The snap-adjustable cuffs allow you to customize the fit around your wrists, providing a snug seal against wind and rain, or a more relaxed fit as needed.
Does this jacket run true to size?
Based on the XXL sizing, it is recommended to consult the Belstaff size chart for precise measurements, as fit can vary. The jacket is designed with a classic fit that may accommodate layering.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loses water repellency
The jacket needs to be re-waxed. Follow the care instructions for applying a new coat of wax.
Visible wax residue on clothing or surfaces
This can occur if the jacket is too heavily waxed or stored improperly. Allow the jacket to air out in a cool place. If necessary, gently wipe the affected area with a dry cloth. Ensure proper storage away from heat and plastics.
Jacket feels stiff
New waxed cotton jackets can be stiff. Wear the jacket regularly to help it break in and conform to your body shape. Gentle flexing of the fabric can also help.
Mildew or odor development
Ensure the jacket is stored in a dry, well-ventilated area. If mildew or odor occurs, air the jacket out thoroughly. For persistent issues, a light wipe-down with a damp cloth (no soap) and then complete air drying may be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Re-waxing: The jacket will need to be re-waxed periodically to maintain its water and wind repellency. Use only Belstaff-approved wax or a specialized waxed cotton reproofing product. Apply evenly with a cloth, avoiding excessive build-up.
- Cleaning: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Clean by brushing off dirt and mud when dry. For tougher stains, use a damp sponge or cloth with cold water. Never use soap or detergents, as these can strip the wax.
- Storage: Store the jacket on a wide hanger in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid storing in plastic bags, as this can cause the wax to sweat and potentially damage the fabric.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron the garment on a low heat setting, preferably with a pressing cloth placed between the iron and the jacket, to avoid damaging the wax coating.
