Belstaff Jackets
Belstaff jackets first hit the British motorcycle clothing scene in 1924 when Eli Belovitch and his son in law Harry Grosberg laid down plans for a jacket that kept a motorcyclist dry and warm. As the jackets developed Belstaff began to use waxed cotton to give their garments a waterproof characteristic, but still allowed the Belstaff Coat to breathe, something which came in handy with motorcyclists, but also benefits the technically minded unique seeking fashion market of today. This original concept has since been redeveloped in the 90s with Belfresh technology being used to enhance the characteristics of the cottons used.
In the 2000s the Belstaff collection began to take off in the US, with many films and music artists now featuring the jacket with Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible 3, Will Smith in I Am Legend and Leonardo Di Caprio in The Aviator and Shia LaBeouf in Wall Street 2. American rapper and producer Jay-Z has also performed in the classic Belstaff Roadmaster jacket. These films have helped lift the worldwide appeal of the classic British brand and has helped create the famous and popular Belstaff Jackets that are available today at Mainline Menswear.
