Belstaff Crosby 8oz Wax Cotton Jacket – Black

The Belstaff Crosby jacket is back and here to stay. Belstaff have perfected one of its most popular jackets and it has now reached its final form. Thankfully, the style hasn’t changed: the Crosby is still a classic, four pocket, mid-lenght jacket that sits in Belstaff’s range between the short Brooklands and the longer, belted Trialmaster. 

What has changed is the material: the Crosby is now made from an upgraded waxed cotton called TekWax. TekWax is a new innovation that uses high grade synthetic fibres intertwined with Belstaff’s high quality cotton to obtain an abrasion resistant fabric that achieves an A rating in the new CE Abrasion & Tear tests. It does this without adding bulk and sacrificing its light weight or the classic Belstaff style. Using the synthetic fibres in the weaving process means the fabric does not rely on thickness to provide exceptional abrasion resistance. D3O CE certified Level 1 armour is included in the elbows and shoulders and offers excellent impact absorption and there is of course a pocket for you to add an optional back protector.

Its Tekwax construction means the new Crosby is a sturdy, yet not overly heavy jacket. The outer layer will keep mild rain out because of its waxed nature, but should you get stuck in heavier rainfall, the Crosby has a breathable yet completely waterproof Miporex membrane underneath.

Like all Belstaff jackets, the attention to detail on the Crosby is unrivalled. Of course there are the four deep patch pockets closed by a waterproof flap with snap buttons, an adjustable collar, shoulder and elbow reinforcement patches and an adjustable waist. The jacket is closed by virtue of a sturdy zip running down the middle and an overlaying flap with aged metal snaps buttons to keep out the wind and rain. Further care has been taken by Belstaff to protect your bike’s fuel tank from scratches too with the two bottom snaps being made from rubber. 

We truly believe the Crosby has reached its final form and has become a jacket you can count on for years to come.
