Belstaff Crosby jacket
In the world of the motorcycling, there are really just two styles of jacket: the short and the long! The long jacket from Belstaff is called the Trialmaster and has four pockets and a belt. The short jacket is normally more of a blouson style, and is often associated with a sportier style of bike. Belstaff call their version the Mojave or the Brooklands. The Belstaff Crosby jacket sits somewhere between the two and almost, for that reason, is our favourite. It just seems to fit more people and works on and off the bike. It still has four pockets, but instead of a belt it has adjusters on the waist to taper the jacket in. New for 2024, the Belstaff Crosby comes in a technical wax cotton in four colours or in leather (called the Turner) in two colours. In many ways, it is the perfect all-round jacket. Not too long. Not too short. Can be layered up to wear in colder weather but it is light enough to wear through most of the summer. It is, in fact, just right!
How often should I rewax my Belstaff Crosby jacket?
A modern Belstaff motorcycle jacket does not need rewaxing in the way that traditional wax cotton jackets did. They Crosby is not relying on the wax finish for its waterproofing as it has a fixed drop-liner Miporex membrane for that purpose. The modern wax finish is for look and feel rather than pure function.
Does the Belstaff Crosby come up true to size?
Truth be told, even though Belstaff is back in British hands, the sizing is still a little Italian. Check the size charts on the jackets as you will probably need to size up on the Crosby.

Belstaff Crosby jacket in sand
I bought this jacket as I had a tour coming up and needed a new one. On arrival I tried it on and it was a good, if slightly tight fit. First ride out was a 200 mile round trip to Aberdeen and back to Inverness, where it hammered Highland rain all the way.No leakages and no drips, so very pleased. Then came a tour to Northern Ireland over the hottest weekend of the year. For most of the trip it was perfectly comfortable but when it got tp 32 degrees I rode with jacket open to get some air in. Later in the week got caught in a heavy downpour, and again no leaks or drips. After a week of riding the jacket seems to have moulded itself to me and is very comfortable. I like the pockets as well, and the inner one kept my phone dry. The only downside is the cuffs are quite tight meaning gloves have to go over the sleeves, so water could get into the gloves from drips from the arms. That said, I didnt actually have any problems. Overall, after 1500 miles I am impressed. For size purposes, I am a slim large with 42 inch chest.

Ive had and worn every type of jacket out there, and this one looks and feels the best of any I have had in the past. Classic look, great tailored fit, I get compliments on the jacket wherever I go. I live in Canada on the west coast so Belstaff are rare out here and people are always asking me where I got it. The only time I would consider wearing my mesh jacket instead of my Crosby is on a really warm and sunny day. It does get warm quick when youre going slow in direct sunlight. Im a 48 chest and the 2XL fits great.
Belstaff Crosby jacket in mahogany
This is my 2nd Crosby, bought as this one is slightly heavier weight than the old Italian one and is more substantial. I like the Crosby because its a good length and has side adjusters rather than a belt. Its my most-worn jacket, warm enough with the Belstaff down jacket for down to 8-10C. My only slight criticism is the cuff is a bit narrow, and is suitable for short gloves only.
