This is a very hard to find Original Belstaff Trialmaster Wax Cotton Jacket - MADE IN ENGLAND
This jacket was made in the Original Belstaff Factory in England before the company got bought and moved to Italy.
The jacket is in EXCELLENT condition. NO rips, NO stains.
Note: The belt is a new waxed cotton belt. Not the original one.
So, what was it about the Trialmaster that made it so significant? To put it simply, it was everything a biker could ever need (except, you know, a bike). Four bellowed pockets, a belted waist, wad cotton exterior, plaid lined interior, throat latch, reinforced shoulders, high arm holes, a zipper and button front closure, and, of course, a crop body to not interfere with the ride itself. To say the Trialmaster was stocked would be a serious understatement. While the jacket was quite literally made for the trails and roads, it wasn’t long before it found an audience off the well-ridden track. Starting with riders across the world, like Steve McQueen (who as rumor has it once famously cancelled a date with Ali MacGraw to re-wax his Belstaff) and Che Guevara during his motorcycle journey across Latin America, the Trialmaster soon became closely linked to the road warrior set. As the years wore on, Belstaff leapt from the track to the sidewalk, becoming a favorite jacket for us slower moving folks that simply dug the jacket’s aesthetic.
